I WAS planning to leave a really good review of this app (even if it cost $20 for unlimited use). I paid the unlimited use fee (for continual updates with no ads etc), and the remote really works great! I like the touchpad option and the position of all the buttons. But, then I noticed a problem where the remote stops working if it’s turned OFF (or if you switch to another app). As a result, I have to restart (or refresh) the remote app every time I go to a diff app on my iPhone (?) Really???FYI: I’m using the newest iPhone iOS on an iPhone XMax. So, everything is “up-to-date”. My suggestion would be to either figure out a way for the remote to maintain a connection switching apps OR simply put a “refresh button” that allows users to reconnect quickly if they had to switch over to another app while using the remote, etc. BTW...I’m using Samsung 7 Series w/the remote.

You’re better off just buying a new remote! It does work with my Samsung Q7 -BUT- you still have to have a Samsung remote available to “allow” the app to connect in the first place. Which defeats the purpose of me downloading and paying $20 for this app. I only bought it because I lost my remote and figured I’d download this app to replace it. Unfortunately, it was useless until I got a hold of a real Samsung remote from a friend, to allow the app to connect to my tv. Then I found out that the app doesn’t even stay connected to the TV even after the “allow” step. I have to constantly allow connection for the app to work. Which means you need a real remote on hand... to allow a digital remote to control your TV but why would anyone need to download this app if they already had a real remote?! They wouldn’t. And the app itself doesn’t stay connected to the TV despite not needing the “allow” process. I find my self continuously having to close the app and then reopening it and then going through the process of searching and selecting my TV every time I exit that app to do something else on my phone or just close my screen. It’s too much of a hassle to use for $20. Worth more like 0.99 TOPS! A real legitimate Samsung remote costs even less than $20, with no constant fuss of reconnections needed. UGH!

I have a Samsung series 6 40” smart TV and it works flawlessly! I got the lifetime plan for $34 because it was discontinued and thats a decent deal, but that would be my only complaint is I feel it’s slightly expensive! I think $5-$10 a month would be a fair price. I literally only use it for adjusting volume on my TV because I lost the remote during moving years ago and $6 a week i feel is kind of steep for a TV remote, but i get it and im not mad its a amazing app and works great and i happily paid the $34 for the lifetime plan, but i bet you would get a lot more business if it was a tiny bit cheaper overall! Thank you for a great app!!

Remote could be better if you could actually use it without being hassled into purchasing the premium. If you are going to offer a remote, offer the basics. Channels, volume, the home button. Basic things that should come with a remote. And everything else can be offered at a premium. After a few clicks it stops working and just directs to the premium pay page. I would’ve absolutely purchased the lifetime remote if I didn’t feel bullied into it. The crazy thing is, the price is reasonable! I just dislike feeling forced into making a purchase. Also, I’m not sure if this is an issue because I hadn’t purchased the premium at that time but I also don’t like having to get permission from the tv to use the remote after I’ve already connected it to my tv. In order to answer the question I need the actual remote! Lol it isn’t helpful if I’ve lost it and that’s why I’m trying to use my phone smh lol.
