1. And, did I say full screen ads after every 2 or 3 button clicks?My TV wasn't detected on the WiFi network shared by my phone and my TV automatically, so I had to enter my IP address manually.
2. She offered absolutely no help, not even one attempt at troubleshooting, not one procedure, and basically said that without the remote, I'm stuck, since there's no way to switch from letters to numbers to input the wifi password, and the password unfortunately must contain numbers, otherwise I would have changed it.would have been really good except for too much ads... if it's just ads at the bottom, it would be tolerable... but full screen ads after every 2 or 3 clicks? That's really annoying - especially the ads that come with audio.
3. not worth the trouble even installing.i really was hoping this one (after having to uninstall 12 other apps) that this would work on my 10 yr old Phillips TV! Didn't happen... it keeps saying it can't find my tv on the same wi-fi network.
4. reset the TV, reconnected to wifi multiple times and even put in the ip and it just says I have to be on the same network as my phone for my TV and I've reconnected my phone as well to the 1 wifi we have.
5. Your smart TV and your tablet/phone must be connected to the same WiFi network.
6. I checked my TVs wifi IP address and its connected as is my phone.
7. But that wasn't a problem, and the app popped right up and across the top of the graphic (of the remote) was the msg: [TV]Phil TV detected However, any button pressed on the remote returned the same error msg: Your TV was not detected.
8. So how pray tell does this app know what to call my TV after I've connected it but it somehow still isnt on the same network??? Garbage app to just give you adds.
9. Keep searching.It was working perfectly until the last update but now it doesn't connect automatically on startup even if I manually set the IP.
10. But when I use any key on said app I get the same prompt that the phone and TV need to be on the same network.
11. Wifi works fine on the tv and my phone so its the app.
