How to use app on other phones?
My dog ate the remote
I purchased the subscription after our dog chewed through too many remotes. How can other family members use the app without needing to purchase subscriptions on their phones as well?It’s a great app and is working well but my phone needs to be here if anyone else wants to watch the tv.
Developer Response
Hi My dog ate the remote! Thank you for your kind words and for telling us about your experience. We’re glad the app is helping you with your TV. Unfortunately, our application does not currently support Family Sharing. This means that a subscription can only be used on devices that are signed in with the same Apple ID. That’s why it is possible to use the app on different phones, but only if they are linked to the same Apple ID. We appreciate your understanding and hope this clarifies how subscriptions operate. Kind regards,Universal Remote • TV Control Support Team
