## Review summary

Most reviews describe an ad-heavy, unreliable experience: the app frequently fails to discover or connect to TVs, reports of crashes during scanning, and noticeable lag in responding to controls. Many users complain about persistent ads—so frequent that paying to remove them does not guarantee a usable remote. A few reviewers say it works for them, but those positives are rare, leaving the overall impression that the app is not worth the time or money.

### Cons

- Excessive and intrusive ads (including full-screen ads) that appear frequently and impede use
- Cannot reliably discover or connect to TVs; multiple reports of not finding devices or only recognizing unrelated devices (e.g., Roku) rather than the user's TV
- Performance issues such as crashes during device scanning and lag when using controls
- Paid to remove ads but still shows ads or the app fails to display devices after payment
- Overall unusable for many users due to ad-heavy experience and connectivity problems
