5/5The Swiss army Knife for your tv.
This app is great. I meant to add this review months ago but beta iOS meant Apple wouldn’t let me. I recommend this app online when people ask about apps they should have. So many useful features, you have your iPhone as an extra tv remote, a keyboard, a system monitor, a way to execute adb commands on your tv without booting your pc. A wireless file explorer, and app install/uninstaller. You can also take screen shots of your tv screen. I might even be forgetting other features here… Great work and thank you for making it reasonably priced as it’s well worth its price.

5/5Amazing
This app developer definitely knows what he is doing! This app is so useful for many things if you are an iPhone user. The TV quick actions pro app for my remote control (app is also made by the same dev) is the best and most impressive app I have ever seen! Would like to see the developer make more apps!

4/5Just about perfect except…
Loving the app so far. My only issue is with turning it off when not in use. Is this possible; did I miss it or does it always have to run in the background? I’m using it for my fire stick but my tv is only on maybe twice a week. Thx.

5/5Update Live Activities for iOS 16
Everything works great, except for Live Activities. On my wife’s iPhone 11 running iOS 18.3.1, Live Activities functions perfectly—icons appear in black and white, and she can control media directly from the lock screen. However, on my iPhone 14 Pro Max running iOS 16.3.1, Live Activities behaves differently. Whether accessed from the Dynamic Island or lock screen, the buttons don’t work. Tapping any button or area of the Live Activity simply reopens the app instead of performing the intended action. Additionally, I’ve noticed that my icons appear black and red instead of black and white. Aside from this issue, everything else works flawlessly. Edit: it would also be nice touch to control the volume up/down with the phone’s hardware buttons when using the remote control.

5/5Great app!
There's very few apps I review for bc sometimes i forget, but this app is worth posting a review. it's a very clean, simple, and snappy app that does what it says very smoothly. So if you read the overview of the features and think it's useful to you, this app is for you! The dev is also very active with supporting the app on Telegram.
