1. 4/5Not sure I’ll Keep It

   Im in the 1st hour of my 3 day free trial period. It works with my Samsung, but what I think that’s a little annoying, regarding the 3 TV apps that appear on the main remote display, I don’t want those apps. I would like to be able to select my top three app. I know you can click the app button and select and there, but I want the three apps of my choosing on the main screen. I don’t think it’ll be too difficult for the programmer to Program this. Also, I’d be more willing to keep my subscription if there was a more reasonable pricing plan. $30 is not that much per lifetime but I just don’t know I want to keep the app. And the other plans are almost nearly as much money. You should offer, say, a five dollar for the 1st month. Even if that’s a one time offer introductory offer. A five dollar per the first month gives the users a good amount of time to get familiar with the app with no Huge monetary commitment. I bet you would get more subscribers that way.

2. 5/5Very good but pricey, now useless

   The app is back to normal function except for the lack of fast forward or back as noted below. I am revising my rating from 4 stars to 1 star. Since the latest app update, the app is a total fail. You have. The app loses its connection every time the phone goes to sleep or you do anything else with your phone outside of this app. You have to either force quit the app and restart it or disconnect the TV and reconnect. The only response from the developer is the boilerplate delete and reinstall the app and restart your phone, which I did to no avail. I informed them and have heard nothing new. So in the trash it goes as well as my lifetime premium. What follows is my first review. If it were a little cheaper I would give it 5 stars. It works great. Nice layout. Practically no response lag time. I purchased a replacement remote for my TV which lasted all of 3 months. I wish I had bought this app then rather than wasting that money. P.S. one deficiency I have found is the lack of fast forward or reverse. If I push and release forward or reverse on my Samsung remote, the program moves 15 seconds, or something like that. If I push and hold it continuously moves in those 15 second increments moving faster and faster as I continue to hold. I can find no similar function with this app. If you want to move forward or backward more than the 15 seconds, you have to keep tapping time and time again.

3. 1/5Charged for subscription after canceleing

   I’m writing this review because I’m getting the run around so to the people that look at the reviews here is my honest opinion! I downloaded this app a year ago. It didn’t work for what I needed it too and originally gleaned with a free trial. So I downloaded it agreed to the free trial realized within that same hour that it wasn’t what I needed and cancelled the subscription (same day) and undownloaded the app. It never showed up in my subscription menu after the free trial so I thought nothing of it. Now here we are a year later and I’m being charged $40 for a yearly subscription to something I cancelled a year ago, did not use or even have on my device longer than an hour, and haven’t even seen in my subscriptions tab. And now because I haven’t paid it I’m no longer allowed to download apps until I update my payment method and pay this $40. I was instructed by Apple to pay the balance and then request a refund to resolve my problem (with no guarantee that I would actually get a refund!) the problem is I don’t have $40 to pay it/ or loose if it’s not refunded even if I was able to get the $40. So now my Apple ID is not usable to download anything because this app will not remove the charge that isn’t supposed to be there in the first place. I tried contacting support and couldn’t even find it. So if I could give negative stars I would. Be cautious with downloading this app unless you want unwarranted charges to your account.

4. 3/5Paid for. Be careful 😊 Also drains battery

   The Only reason I’m giving this 3 stars is because I paid for full access (A one time purchase) so I would not have to feel as though I’m wasting money every month. sometimes, this remote app will do certain things, such as, when I try to turn up my volume, or use the power button to turn the TV on, it will say “one time purchase for full access”, as if my remote was not already paid for. 🤨 I am sure they are aware how much money was taken out of my account for this remote. They try this year after year as if I did not pay. Haha. If someone didn’t know any better they would keep paying, sending this remote company money- when the truth is-they have already paid for full access. Am I bashing this company? Nope! But they sure can improve on certain things & stop certain things all together!! Also, when I try to turn the TV on I have to press the power button many times for it to come on even when directly pointed at the tv. This remote will Also will drain your battery. So after you put on your show, exit off the remote app and lock your phone.

5. 1/5It works free only for a while…

   It used to work free/unpaid (no free trial) and you get prompted from time to time to upgrade to the paid version in the middle of using so all your clicks doesn’t always go through, sometimes it’s just a click to prompt the pop-up for the lair version. It used to only prompt like when you first open the app or after a certain amount of clicks, but then the more you use it (like if you were spending 10+ minutes browsing to find a movie), the prompts weren’t as often so it didn’t seem like it was disrupting every other click when trying to use it. Now it’s like the free version doesn’t exist. Every click it doesn’t communicate with the tv or streaming box and just prompts you endlessly to upgrade. I tried the trial just to see if maybe it’s an app glitch and the app just doesn’t work as a whole, but low and beyond the second I get the paid version (luckily it was a trial and I was NOT charged) the remote is working again I don’t mind ads, I don’t mind being prompted/interrupted from time to time to get the pro version but what I hate is bait and switch “free” apps that eventually coerce you into paying for them. I think people who do the trial and get charged may have used the apps free trial before and just doesn’t remember. Apple as a whole has to do better at confirming free trials and prompting people when their free trial has already been used. Because even if you’ve purchased before, you’ll always be asked to try it for free and only after you agree to the purchase will it be like “oh you already had a trial, so we are going to charge you” then it’s a hassle to get a refund because Apple has been cracking down on refunds in regards to forgetting to cancel a free trial or subscription.
