This was the ticket to fixing our problem and was very easy to set up and use. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-08-16, version 1.10* Thank you ### 5/5 — Ben *2026-08-16, version 1.10* Bs ### 1/5 — Ad every 4 clicks *2026-08-15, version 1.10* There’s a ad every 4 clicks on this app it’s insane constantly making me click and try to make me pay ### 5/5 — It’s Amazing *2026-08-15, version 1.10* LOVE THIS THING ALOT ### 4/5 — Bom *2026-08-14, version 1.10* Demais ### 1/5 — Forces 5 star review before asking for money *2026-08-14, version 1.10* Doesnt work without a subscription. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No. *2026-08-23, version 1.12* I don’t like this app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work and even if it did you would have to pay a monthly fee … for a remote *2026-08-23, version 1.12* Go elsewhere if you have more than 3 brain cells ### 1/5 — I hate it. *2026-08-23, version 1.12* I thought it would be easy but after to many clicks you have to purchase more and I don’t want that ### 1/5 — Pay to use 😡 *2026-08-22, version 1.12* No Thank you. There used to be apps like this years ago that were free to use. Went to download one due to tv remote stopped working but to have to pay $8.99 per week to use a remote, let alone pay in general. No Thank you. I’ll buy the replacement remote for $6.97 on amazon. ### 1/5 — They make you do a review before access to the app *2026-08-21, version 1.12* They make you do a review make you think it’s free then want you to subscribe to a subscription ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-18, version 1.10* This app wants to charge $30 a year to use and if you don’t they constantly try and get you to buy it every 5 buttons you push. ### 1/5 — Works but ad every few seconds *2026-08-17, version 1.10* The remote works but every few seconds there’s an add. I’d say get the other remote but not the one with 600k reviews there’s one with 60 to 80k reviews that works flawless with barely any adds where you can change the volume without premium. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work *2026-08-16, version 1.10* While setting up the app, you have to rate it before you can see if it even works on your TV. It doesn’t do anything with my TV. If I try to turn the TV off, it says the TV is off but it’s still on. It literally does nothing. Also 8.99 a week for a remote that doesn’t do anything is ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-08-16, version 1.10* Same as the other apps on here. Can’t use it without starting a free trial then paying 8$ a week. ### 1/5 — 😭 *2026-08-16, version 1.10* Não ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ❤️ *2026-08-25, version 1.12* Jus’t Amazing ### 5/5 — THE BEST APP *2026-08-24, version 1.12* this app is personally my fav cuz this one is free and the app is so easy to operate ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-23, version 1.12* Love it ### 5/5 — Remote *2026-08-23, version 1.12* Love it because it was easy to connect and I won’t lose the remote ### 5/5 — Control *2026-08-23, version 1.12* Muy buenos ### 5/5 — Loving it for my Firestick *2026-08-23, version 1.12* So far it’s been pretty good with my firestick. The Firestick remote sometimes bugs out, so its good to have this as a backup ### 5/5 — Helpful app *2026-08-19, version 1.11* It’s fast to download and easy to use ❤️ ### 5/5 — The best app ever *2026-08-18, version 1.10* When somebody else is using the remote, this app comes in clutch ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-17, version 1.10* Love it ### 5/5 — Awesomes *2026-08-17, version 1.10* Awesome --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
