User Reviews

User reviews show a split: a subset praise Roomie Remote X’s fresh design, improved navigation, strong performance, and the ability to handle large configurations, with some noting seamless transfers. However, a larger portion report major upgrade pains: broken migrations, loss of settings and macros, read-only controls, and editing restrictions; combined with licensing costs and unclear purchase transfers, poor or vague support, and architectural changes like a required central controller. Overall sentiment is negative toward Roomie X due to reliability, migration, and cost issues, despite some notable positives.

Pros

Faster performance and notably lower battery usage on large configurations (many devices and activities).
Fresh, easier-to-use UI with features like kid-friendly iPad access.
Some users report seamless transfer of devices and activities and a simpler setup.
Long-time users see Roomie X as one of the better updates with improved reliability.

Cons

Upgrade to Roomie X causes data loss, broken migrations, and inability to edit configurations.
Migration/import reliability is poor: devices and macros may not transfer and the interface can become read-only.
Pricing and licensing issues, including costly lifetime subscriptions and unclear how purchases transfer.
Support is perceived as inadequate or vague (no direct contact, limited documentation).
Architectural changes (central/always-on controller requirement and major rewrites) force reconfiguring existing setups.

I get an empty home screen that’s completely useless. I don’t see the macros from I the original Roomie Remote. It says I’m supposed to unsubscribe from my perpetual license, but I would rather see settings come over first before I do so. So far I’m still using the old one and I don’t understand what I’m supposed to be doing here. Preview images look great in the App Store, but it doesn’t look remotely like that. Just empty screens.

1 star would be unfair because I haven’t been able to use it. But that’s the issue, it says 1 Smart TV can be set up for free, right? Not sure what constitutes as a Smart TV on the app, but I tried my Samsung TV which directed me to purchasing a subscription. Wasn’t sure what to make of that so I then tried Android TV for my Google Streamer and was hit with the same notification, so I’m not really sure how to proceed.
