Review summary

Users appreciate the Polytron IR Remote app for its ease of use and reliable performance with Polytron air conditioners and TVs, especially as a lifeline when original remotes fail or batteries die. It requires a phone with an IR blaster and is praised for simple setup and working on multiple device types. However, some users find it lacks complete functionality on certain devices, has a confusing interface, and doesn't support older or non-Polytron devices fully.

Pros

Works well with Polytron devices such as air conditioners and TVs.
Easy to use with simple setup, no complicated configuration required.
Useful alternative when original remote batteries die or remotes are broken.
Saves inconvenience by allowing remote control via phone IR blaster.
Compatibility noted specifically with Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro and other devices with IR blaster.

Cons

Limited functionality on some devices; some buttons or features (like function button or timer) may be missing or non-functional.
Not working or partially working on older or non-Polytron devices, such as old DVD models.
Some users find the app interface confusing due to too many options without explanations.
Requires phone with built-in IR blaster; not all phones supported.
Reports of the app not turning devices on in certain cases or only power button functioning.

2022-11-12	Ju*****	Hello, it doesn't work on old DVD (model 2255), does it? I've got IR on my phone and usually it works flawlessy with my built in remote app. But it doesn't have "function" button so I downloaded this. But alas, this app doesn't even turn my device on. Kindly fix the problem, please.
