User Reviews

Users praise the app for its deep customization, widget/Live Activities support, and Shortcuts automation, making it a powerful TV remote on iPhone/iPad. However many reviews focus on recurring drawbacks: a shift to a subscription model with extra charges and refund problems; persistent connectivity and TV pairing issues across brands; occasional bugs after updates that disrupt features; slow or unhelpful support; and gaps in brand/device compatibility (including Apple Watch and lock screen limitations). Overall, highly capable when it works, but reliability and pricing concerns are common.

Pros

Highly customizable remote with rich layouts and Apple TV remote options.
Excellent widget, Live Activities, and Shortcuts support for automation.
Works well on iPhone and iPad with regular updates.
Powerful feature set for home theater control and automation.
Perceived value with a one-time/lifetime purchase option.

Cons

Switch from a one-time payment to a subscription model with extra charges for adding TVs; refunds are difficult.
Recurring connectivity problems: TV discovery/connection failures, IP address issues, and devices needing re-adding.
Updates sometimes introduce bugs or cause existing shortcuts/controls to break or require reconfiguration.
Poor customer support with slow responses and refund difficulties.
Limited compatibility with some brands and devices (e.g., lack of support for certain brands, Apple Watch limitations, lock screen controls).
