### 1/5 — Don’t use

*2025-11-08, version 1.1.25*

Make it impossible to cancel subscription

### 1/5 — Cannot easily connect to Vizio Smart TV

*2025-08-01, version 1.1.21*

It’s probably my TVs fault.   But still, I should be able to easily connect to my TV if my TV and App are on the same WiFi.  No such luck.

### 1/5 — 👎

*2025-07-31, version 1.1.21*

I wanted to see if this was worth the effort to have but the fact that there is a subscription to use a remote is ridiculous and also I was having issues connecting the remote to my Roku tv. There are other Roku remote’s that are free and easier to use.

### 5/5 — What

*2025-07-31, version 1.1.21*

It’s wonderful

### 1/5 — Does not control Roku

*2025-07-31, version 1.1.21*

It’s funny because it controls my Samsung TV, but I’m trying to control the Roku and it will not work for any buttons

### 1/5 — No todos los TV

*2025-05-18, version 1.1.18*

No me funciona con Vizio

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2025-05-06, version 1.1.18*

It will show the tv but not connect. Don't like at all. 
Also, it said free 3 day trial, but automatically debited my account.

### 5/5 — Remote

*2025-05-04*

Thanks

### 1/5 — JUNK

*2025-04-14, version 1.1.16*

Only works part time

### 2/5 — Roku remote

*2025-03-13, version 1.1.15*

This is not working I guess this is why I have to pay for a 3 day trial.  I want my money back I have cancelled this.
