Amazing app
Solo Edem
I was tired of searching for different remotes around the house so I gave this app a try and now I use it every day. It connected quickly to my Samsung TV and the response time was fast like using the original tv remote. I also tested it on my LG and it worked just as smoothly. The wifi remote connection stayed stable and never dropped while I was using it. I really like the cast tv option for sending videos to the screen and the screen mirror feature is helpful for showing photos to family. It is nice having support for roku fire tv and other devices in one place. If you need a universal remote that is simple reliable and easy to use this app is a great choice.

The ultimate universal remote app
fawzy709
I've been looking for a reliable universal remote for a while, and this app completely nailed it. Setting it up as a wifi remote was incredibly fast and seamless. It connected to my samsung and Ig TVs instantly without any annoying configuration loops.The interface functions perfectly as a smart tv remote, and the layout is very intuitive. Aside from just being a standard tv remote, the cast tv and screen mirror features work flawlessly with minimal latency, which is a huge plus for sharing videos and photos. It's super versatile and a lifesaver if you have multiple brands around the house like roku or fire tv. Highlyrecommended!
Universal Tv Remote

offers a clean interface and reliable basic TV remote controls. Navigation, volume adjustment, and casting options are easy to access. However, many advanced features are locked behind a Pro subscription, which may limit the experience for free users. Overall, it's a useful remote-control app for smart TVs, earning reduce the star to 4
