User Reviews

Most reviews describe the Plex & Kodi remote as unreliable and hard to set up. The app often fails to find the Plex/Kodi servers on the network, offers no manual configuration, and support links are broken. Ads clutter the interface and can block buttons, and key controls sometimes require extra purchases. Stability is inconsistent, with crashes when entering IP/connection details. A minority report it can work for Plex when following setup steps, and some updates improved issues, but overall it’s seen as not worth the trouble.

Pros

Provides a full remote interface with all buttons on one page (including info).
Works with Plex once configured via IP and port according to reviewer guidance.
No-frills, straightforward remote control for Plex.
Value for money; simple, functional remote.
Updates have addressed some issues, improving usability.

Cons

Cannot detect Plex or Kodi on the local network and there is no manual configuration option to enter IP/port.
App Support link is broken, making it difficult to get help.
Ads clutter or obstruct the remote UI and can block controls.
Some essential buttons require purchases and may not work reliably.
Stability is inconsistent, with crashes when entering IP or other settings.
