Review summary

USB Remote is highly appreciated by users who utilize the InputStick hardware for tasks like password entry and remote control, offering reliable functionality and useful features. However, the app suffers from a misleading name implying USB cable support, which it lacks, causing user confusion and negative reviews. The interface is also considered clunky and outdated. Many complaints arise from users not reading the description and misunderstanding the app's hardware dependencies, leading to unfair poor ratings.

Pros

Works flawlessly with the InputStick hardware device.
Very useful for typing passwords and saved snippets quickly, especially where copy and paste isn't available.
No need for charging the InputStick, making it convenient to carry and use.
Includes a good amount of features and customization options, with API and plugin support (e.g., KeePass plugin).
Useful for IT professionals and HTPC control, saving time in various tasks.

Cons

The app does not work via USB cable despite the name suggesting it does, leading to confusion and complaints about false advertising.
UI is somewhat clunky, dated, and not very intuitive; users find the app hard to navigate without clear instructions.
Many users who do not read the app description give low ratings, complaining about input method and hardware requirements.
The app's name is misleading as it suggests USB functionality but requires the InputStick device, causing frustration among users expecting cable connectivity.
Lack of a manual or clear guidance within the app contributes to user dissatisfaction and poor ratings.
