User Reviews

Users praise atvTools as a powerful, feature-rich Android TV companion that can replace the remote, handle file transfers, and manage apps across a wide range of devices. The premium version is repeatedly described as worth the price. Recurring drawbacks include unreliable discovery/connections, upgrade prompts, keyboard/input issues on some OS versions, occasional crashes, and device-specific file-transfer limitations. Overall, very capable for power users but stability could improve.

Pros

Powerful, feature-rich tool that can replace remote control, file transfer, and app management on Android TV.
Swiss-knife of features: sending APKs, installing apps, disabling bloatware, and moving files.
Broad device compatibility across Android TV platforms (Chromecast, Shield, Xiaomi, etc.).
Premium version offers substantial value and is worth the price.
ADB tooling and screen mirroring features add depth and utility.

Cons

Unreliable connectivity and device discovery; frequent disconnections requiring TV/router restarts.
Frequent upgrade prompts and paywall limitations hindering day-to-day use.
Keyboard/input issues on certain OS versions or apps (e.g., Android 12, Kodi).
Occasional crashes or instability on specific devices (e.g., Google Pixel Fold).
Some device-specific file-transfer limitations (e.g., copying/moving files between certain devices like Firestick and phone).

brilliant ap p...thank you

Seems functional, but besides having a bunch of ads, it keeps most features paywalled so when you try to do anything it will pester with infinite pop-ups to buy the pro version. Not worth the headache, it can be mostly replaced by a combination of other FOSS apps from F-droid, such as "kdeconnect" for file transfer and "Bluetooth remote" for seamless Bluetooth remote emulation.
