It really works!

I was skeptical about it but it actually works!

Pay?

Works OK for a few minutes, then they hit you up for payment. No thanks.

What a JOKE!!

Remote works great for about 5 minutes, then says โ€œtry it FREE for 3 daysโ€ then $2.99 per week after. Are you freaking kidding me?!

Still being charged!๐Ÿคฌ

I canceled my subscription months ago and they still charging me $2.99 a month. I need to know what what can I do to stop this?

Not working

Stop working after few weeks, even though brought the (lifetime Subscriptions 9.99$.)

Remote isnโ€™t syncing even though we are on the same network

Iโ€™ve done everything it asked. Put in the correct IP address and make sure the tv and remote are on the same internet network, but the remote isnโ€™t working.

Waste of money and time

Had to get a refund from apple because the app doesnโ€™t work. It says itโ€™s connected to my tv but every time I click one of the volume buttons, the app asks me if we are on the same WiFi network

Just buy another remote

It worked fine for the first few minutes and then it suddenly asks you to pay. I thought it was suggesting you to pay for extra features, but it insists that you pay for the features it already showed. Not worth it unless you just want a new remote

Itโ€™s okay

First I thought it was going to be the best app but itโ€™s not after like 10 minutes it was you to start a free trail for 3 days and itโ€™s $2.99 a WEEK So I donโ€™t think people should get this app. ๐Ÿ˜“

Worked until I paid for it

Canโ€™t get the up down and side to side to work. Canโ€™t use with my tv. Vizio

YES Finally an app that works!

After two app download failures with other sleazy remote control apps that were more interested in selling stuff than doing the job they titled the app for this one comes thru. It connected easily to my tv and went to work without trying to spam me with ads or offers to upgrade my service. Thank you for being focused on actually doing what you specifically named your app to do.

LOL

These jokers really tryin' to run the bill on old grannies or someone. Who the heck would subscribe to a WEEKLY subscription when they could just go buy a new tv remote!

App used to be free. I used it rarely but now I'll be deleting it. ๐Ÿ˜ก

Limited use

This app is only good to turn to on and off and adjust volume. Thatโ€™s it. Cannot change channels or access apps. Waste of $10. No user manual to help figure it out.

Too many ads and too often

Got tired of the ads and uninstalled in few minutes. Iโ€™m sure there are better apps.

Unusable due to excessive ads after a recent update

This app used to work just fine but has become unusable after a recent update since it keeps showing ads without performing the requested action.

Great App but one problem!

This appears to be an awesome remote control app. It allowed me to try it briefly then stopped. One problem I have with it is that $2.99 a week is way overpriced. Iโ€™m out on that! Is there something iโ€™m missing??๐Ÿคจ??

Used to be free.

Now they are forcing you to pay for it in order to use it or it simply doesnโ€™t work. Uninstalling it and looking for something else.

Used to be free

The app used to offer all features for feee which worked great but now it will not let me use it unless I pay for it.

Wack

I used to use this app all the time for years since my toddlers decide to play with the remote ! Now I have to pay 2.99 A WEEK? SERIOUSLY? How can a virtual remote be 2.99? Might as well buy a whole new remote instead. Will be deleting the app.

Worked great until update asks me to pay $2.99/week!!!

Loved this remote when I downloaded it, recently got an update on my phone and now it wants me to pay $2.99/week to use it. What kindof of BS is that. I can buy a new remote for a fraction of the price for a year of using this app. Disappointed
