Literalmente pra cada clique em botão do controle, um anúncio é exibido. Se não quiser ver? 60 reais por mês. Pra usar um controle remoto. Não sei o que os desenvolvedores estão usando, mas claramente está afetando o cérebro deles. ### 1/5 — App mentira *2026-06-14* Não conecta ### 4/5 — Tv Philips *2026-06-10, version 4.2* Philips ### 1/5 — Avis *2026-06-08* L’application est indiqué comme gratuit lors du téléchargement or une fois le téléchargement aboutit vous ne pouvez même pas éteindre votre télévision sans payer un abonnement et un tarif supplémentaire. En effet les seuls options payantes sont d’aller de gauche à droite, le volume et d’autre choses pas très utile. Dommage j’aurai préféré que l’application soit directement indiqué comme payante avant de la télécharger ### 1/5 — SCAM *2026-06-03, version 4.2* Be warned there is no pro feature on this app, the only function is reduce and increase your TV volume and I don’t see why anyone should pay £6.99 for that. BE WARNED THERE IS NO PRO FEATURE ON THIS APP ITS A SCAM!!!!! ### 1/5 — Make it free *2026-06-02, version 4.2* You’re telling me just to turn off my TV and enter an app I need to pay for premium ### 1/5 — Lixo de aplicativo *2026-05-28* Não dar pra usar, tem que pagar, não baixem. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money. *2026-05-15, version 4.2* Bought the app, no free trial, $7.99 a week, connected to my tv but would only let me control the volume. When the full remote came up, it just kept flicking out of it. ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-05-13, version 4.2* All I could do without subscribing was navigate around the screen. Even pressing OK triggered the subscription page. ### 1/5 — Ruim demais *2026-05-12* Ruim demais quer cobrar por tudo ### 1/5 — Do not fall for it *2026-04-17, version 4.2* Do not get it I paid for the premium and all I can do is turn my volume up and down ### 1/5 — Pessimo *2026-04-06* Só funciona o volume, propaganda enganosa. Não paguem. ### 1/5 — Horrível *2026-04-03* Horrível o pior controle existente coloca a gente pra pagar não deixa usar horrível horrível horrível horrível horrível horrível horrível horrível em 1000 dimensões é só horrível não recomendo ninguém pode baixar esse app é horrível horrível horrível horrível 1000 vezes horrível, eu só não dou zero estrelas porque não deixam ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-04-01, version 4.2* Got subscriptions and completely didn’t work waste of money don’t even bother ### 1/5 — No longer has guide button *2026-03-11, version 4.2* I’ve been using this app for years. The last update seems to have removed the guide button. Which was one of the main reasons I used this app. The power on and off button also never worked for my Sony tv. ### 1/5 — Apenas 2 toques *2026-03-06* Eles permitem apenas 2 toques no controle, após isso ele exige pagamento ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good luck entering the pin code *2026-08-24, version 4.2* The ui blocks entering the PIN code ### 1/5 — Horrível *2026-08-10* App não funciona, fica desconectando e saindo o tempo todo , quero meu reembolso.

You cannot even press 5 times to switch channels without full screen adds. Boring and I recommend you build your own on Claude. ### 1/5 — Bro *2026-06-27, version 4.2* Every time that I press the ok button it send me to the subscription area ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I rated it a five just so y’all know the down sides. (2 stars) *2026-07-14, version 4.2* I rated this three stars because it is a good app just I can only turn it up and down but it doesn’t even work for me although it said it connected it didn’t turn up or turn down and after 3-5 times I pressed it, it asked me to get the premium when I can’t, and I might be doing something wrong with it only being able to turn it up and down I should probably rate it a 2 ### 5/5 — Remoto *2026-07-05, version 4.2* Ótimo ### 5/5 — Ótimo *2026-02-04* Amei ### 5/5 — Рым *2026-01-21, version 4.2* Отличное приложение!😊 ### 5/5 — Harika uygulama teşekkürler *2026-01-17, version 4.2* Çok güzel ### 5/5 — . *2025-12-27, version 4.2* Çalışmıyor haberiniz olsun sinir oldum yukarı çıksın diye 5 puan ### 5/5 — İNDİRMEDEN OKUYUN *2025-12-10, version 4.2* Para yatırmazsanız Her tuş sonrası reklam çıkıyor,tamamen para yatırtmak için hazırlanmış bi uygulama ### 5/5 — Вылетает *2025-11-25, version 4.0* Классное приложение.
