User Reviews

The app is praised for working across multiple TVs, easy setup, and managing several devices from one account. Users value named TVs, remote control from anywhere, and responsive support. However, recurring negatives include mandatory subscriptions with unclear pricing, limited device support, intrusive prompts, connectivity issues with certain devices, and a hard cancellation process. Overall, it’s convenient and effective when it supports your devices, butsubscription-based use and reliability on some hardware are common sticking points.

Pros

Universal compatibility across many TVs and brands
Easy setup and intuitive navigation
Manage multiple TVs (name devices) and control them from anywhere (e.g., turn off TVs remotely)
Helpful support/instruction when connecting new devices
Convenience and usefulness when the remote is misplaced or needs replacement

Cons

Mandatory subscription/paywall that blocks core functionality and has confusing pricing
Not truly universal; limited device/brand support
Persistent upgrade prompts and intrusive prompts/ads during use
Connectivity issues with some devices (e.g., problems reconnecting to Amazon Fire TV Cube)
Difficulties canceling or managing the subscription / renewal processes

You might as well sell this. I can’t click on ANYTHING without the free trial coming up. Uggh! Couldn’t wait to delete the app. I was looking forward to it, too,
