User Reviews

Users generally praise VIZIO WatchFree+ for being easy to use and for convenient remote-like control when the physical remote is misplaced. It connects readily to the TV and works reliably for many, including letting you control from bed. However, several downsides appear: occasional latency or inconsistent performance, ads on the remote screen that some find annoying, and friction from requiring an account or a paid subscription to access features. Overall, the app is well-liked with clear benefits and a few notable caveats.

I love it. It works well for my tv.

A great alternative if ur remote's batteries die. Simple to use, does require using 4 digit # code to connect to different devices. But overall its great. Can use my phones, & ipad as an alternative remote controls. W out the hassle of buying batteries on my remote too.
