User Reviews

User reviews for UniRemote show a mostly negative sentiment. The dominant issues are billing and cancellation problems (free trials turning into charges, ongoing weekly or unexpected charges, and difficulty canceling or deleting accounts). Many users also report connectivity problems (the app fails to connect to TVs or requires strict network conditions, with frequent disconnects) and compatibility gaps (not supporting certain brands). A small number report easy setup and usable basic controls, but perceived poor value and allegations of scams dominate overall impressions.

Pros

Easy setup and quick Wi‑Fi connection.
Provides core remote controls (play/pause, navigation).
Useful for everyday TV watching when it works.

Cons

Billing and cancellation problems: free trials convert to charges, ongoing charges, and refunds frequently fail.
In-app cancellation or account deletion is hard or impossible.
Frequent connectivity issues: cannot connect to TV, unreliable connections, and frequent disconnects.
Compatibility gaps: not supported on several popular brands (Vizio, Sharp, Insignia) and sometimes claims of compatibility are false.
Perceived poor value and scams: high recurring charges, aggressive pricing, and poor support/refund handling.
