Remoto da TV LG - RemQ +17

I just purchased a new LG tv And was instructed to download the LG thinq app. This app popped up first and the logo is almost identical to the one in the instruction manual. It is my fault for not looking more closely but it was late and I just wanted to get the TV working.
The app requires the user to purchase a plan, which I did, to the tune of $54 😱😱😱
As soon as I did that I realized that this was not the correct app. I am in the process of requesting a refund but have not yet resolved it.

Very disappointing. Oh but imagine the rewards we will reap through “innovation” spawned by honest “competition”. I’ll admit I don’t run a television manufacturer. But when I couldn’t tell my father that he could come visit me to watch the Tigers game, unless we watched it on my IPhone on Bally Sports - Detroit? Well our rendezvous failed to materialize because it was no longer as easy as clicking on the upper right corner of my IPhone screen to merge two devices on the same WiFi signal? Haha yes it’s not that big a deal but maybe it is. If only I could leave 0 Stars. The Machine 1 Man 0 on this splendid day that capitalism dictates such an occurrence. Guess I should’ve just taken him to Comerica Park for a glorious, come from behind, 4-3 win. I mean I’m sure that wouldn’t have made me feel gouged out of money that would’ve been better served for the “greater good” perhaps? I could get entertaining athletes to show up to play games, inside of any sport, for a daily food per diem and a shot at NIL money. They’d be fighting over the chance to do it! Wait, maybe that already happened? Don’t forget the amateur coaching staffs. I could promise the same outcome in recruiting them to show up too 😂😂

Ok back to reality. Tomorrow starts early. Got a life to lead!

The app isn’t the greatest, but the convenience of being able to use the touchpad in the wed browser beats out using the phone.

On both this app and LG THINQ app. Every 5 seconds or interaction with the apps. They are throwing in the subscriptions option up. Which by the way they both show 2 DIFFERENT RATES for essentially the “same” thing. Which I think that needs to be looked into because that’s false advertising. Also the fact the IP channels says they are free yet the subscription includes IP channels so I’m just confused on the scam they are running to compete with other competitors.

The subscription option having to constantly being canceled out of every interaction with both apps isn’t pushing me to buy it, but rather not us it. I’m sure I can get a Bluetooth mouse instead and bypass the apps altogether. It’s pointless and unneeded. There needs to be laws or something to prevent constant and targeted spamming of subscriptions ads. I cancelled out of it once. That’s it. I’m not buying it. Either the remote option is free to use or it’s not. Pick one.
