Remote Customer Insights

1. I've tried the Google app, no-where near the features but that does connect perfectly, so both ends are working.It works, but is very annoying... I really want to turn off my damn tv and also have to not turn my controller to keep it connected.

2. Fix the problem, and like I said, I'd pay for it, and even give a great 5 star because other than that, it's fine.It's a pity it doesn't stay 'connected' after I've had to minimize the app to use my phone for another reason and can be slow to connect or doesn't always work.

3. Good on you!You're telling me I need to go to settings on my TV and Uninstall the latest update so that the remote app will connect and I can use it again to control the TV.... but how am I supposed to do that without the app to control the TV to get into settings and uninstall it? Not only that, but then I backed out of that informative bit and you've got ads all over the entire app screen rendering this app useless regardless of if it connected or not.

4. If kepad worked I would rate higher.Great app, only issue is if the phone rotates the screen (landscape to portrait) the connection breaks and you have to resync or relaunch the app.

5. Only problem is keyboard entry is NOT supported on Sony Bravia OLED TV at all! The other app I tried TV said it was incompatible with TV and did NOT work at all! It has many ads.

6. Why are all the buttons at the top with just blank space on the bottom? The mouse version is easier to use because you don't have to stare at the remote, but it is too high to easily operate with one hand.Decent app.

7. I'm using it to operate my ATT Android C71KW-400 streaming box because I mistakenly packed my original voice remote for a move.

8. As soon as I change the HDMI setting from the gaming system that is currently connected I should be able to successfully access the same services I had before the Amazon firestick was misplaced.

9. If only it worked... Like other reviewers here, it detects the TV but won't connect.

10. Worth the $4 for no ads and to support the developers!Worked right off the bat, which is better than I can say for most other apps.

11. The power button also does not work to shut off the Android box.
