User Reviews

Reviews are overwhelmingly negative. The top issues are: excessive ads that interrupt use and persist even after paying for a pro version; the remote frequently does not connect to Philips TVs or respond to button presses; a paywall/subscription model that many see as misleading or a rip-off; reports of compatibility problems with Philips smart TVs; and poor or no developer support. Together these factors leave the app with little usable remote functionality, despite claims that it works as a TV remote.

Pros

Cons

Excessive ads and upgrade prompts; the app disrupts use with pop-ups and remains intrusive even after paying for a pro version
Inconsistent or non-functional remote control; the app often fails to connect to TVs or respond to button presses
Paywall/subscription model and pay-to-use approach; users report being asked to pay for features and see it as a scam or rip-off
Compatibility problems with Philips smart TVs; multiple reviews say it cannot connect or control Philips devices
Developer support is unresponsive or unhelpful; at least one review notes no response

Won’t work — scam

Totally Useless- an Ad is popping up in 2 seconds

by Lo*****, 2026-01-12

Complete and utter garbage app. It’s completely unusable as a remote due to the number of ads. Want to pair with your TV? Ad. Want to change channels? Ad. Want to move the selection to another tv function? Yeah that’s an ad. Don’t get this app. You download it thinking you’re getting a TV remote, when in reality you’re getting a billboard app.
