Too many ads. Asks for rating before you can test to see if it works. A lot of ads before I could even test to see if it works. Didn't work on my Sony TV. I couldn't properly test different settings because it floods you with ads while switching between different configurations.
Reviews for Universal TV Remote Control
I really don't know if the app works or not because every tap is met with an ad and I wasn't even able to search for a compatible remote for my manufacturer without watching a video. I understand it is supported by ads but come on. This is unusable.
Unusable because of the ads, sorry. I initially didn't believe the other reviews, but oh wow -- this app is ridiculous. Have to watch an ad on literally every button click, and then a full length ad to "unlock" my TV brand. Uninstalled.
Worse than useless. Unusable. No point in it existing. Just extremely disruptive ads with occasional functionality. Want to select a type of remote? Gotta watch a video ad first. Want to change channel? Ad. Change the volume? Ad. No source button either so can't change the hdmi input. There's no way the 5 star reviews are real, some are blatantly not. To the Devs, this monetisation is ridiculously bad. Either charge for it, make ads unintrusive or keep getting 1 star reviews
Take our word for it... This app is useless, just as everybody else said, it don't work, and I've tried it on different brands of TV. It seems more and more all these lame remote apps are banking on that you are connected to the same wifi in order for their app to connect.
The app straight up just doesn't work, and there are ads every 5 seconds. Don't waste your time downloading this. Edit: I got a response from the developers, and I'd like to point out how they defend the advertisement spam, but they fail to address how their app just does not function at all. Again, please do not waste your time.
Literally tried to use this app for 10 seconds and got spammed with "rate this app" and then adverts and then you have to do like and whole bunch of videos to have "access" to the file you want. What a actual pain. You can't even navigate this app without being spammed by adds and requests.
i spend about 30 minutes on the app trying to get a connection to my Philips TV but no luck, didn't connect and wasn't working. Part os the reason for my low rating is also that within those 30 minutes I spen trying to configure things, im pretty sure I was shown at least 25 ads. POS app with no utility
An ad every few seconds, even if it works perfectly that's a horrid way to design an app. BTW, I picked a Sony TV and it wanted me to click a power button upto 287 till one of them responds. However, every 5 attempts or so an ad pops up. After writing this review I'm uninstalling this app since I literally view about 7 ADS in about 1 min!!
Downloaded app and upon opening app to set up I got an ad. No problem usually. However, when I did not provide my personal information to this ad to visit Wisconsin, it wad as far as the app let me go. I did NOT get a chance to set it up or use it. Highly disappointed.
