User reviews

Many users report that the Samsung TV Remote app often fails to maintain connection with the TV, requiring frequent reconnection and sometimes a physical remote to allow connection. Essential features are locked behind costly subscriptions, and the app inundates users with ads and pop-ups, leading to frustration. The interface is confusing with controls spread out, reducing usability. While a few users note it works for basic volume control without payment, overall the app is criticized for poor functionality and undermining its purpose as a free remote alternative.
Pros
  • Some users found the app easy to set up and use basic functions like volume control without payment.
  • A few users appreciated that there is no need for subscription payment to use the app.

  • Provides a remote control alternative when physical remotes are lost or unavailable.
Cons
  • App frequently disconnects from the TV and requires reconnection.
  • Essential functions like turning the TV off or volume control require a paid subscription.
  • The app bombards users with frequent ads and premium subscription pop-ups.
  • Requires users to have a physical remote to allow connection on the TV, defeating the purpose of the app.
