User Reviews

Most reviews describe Smart TV Remote as unreliable and aggressively monetized. Users report persistent ads that hinder navigation, and numerous claims that the app is not free and requires a pricey subscription to access even basic functions like volume or channel changing. Several reviewers say it disconnects from their TV or won’t connect at all, forcing them to rely on real remotes. A few describe it as a scam or false advertising, though one review praises it as easy to use. Overall, negative experience dominates.

It’s a scam. Doesn’t work

This app says free, but free version is worthless. You can not even change the volume, it just states you have to pay big if you want to use volume feature. Constantly just brings up screen to purchase high dollar subscription. Cheaper to just buy some more remotes and leave them laying around. Hardly anything works in free version. Escape button works, but changing channels does not. Changing volume does not. Etc

I just downloaded the app, a Google ad came up at least three-four times in the first 30 seconds that I was trying to figure out how to use the remote. Deleted it I will use something else not so annoying.
