Remotie PRO: Samsung TV Remote for Negative User Reviews
✓ Adverts so annoying!I paid for this advert and it was working brilliantly. But now it’s started playing 30 seconds adverts which stop you using it plus you can’t use a keyboard with it which is annoying as hell..Version: 1.4
✓ Enough adverts to drive you to delete it after minutesYES.... Enough adverts to drive you to delete it after minutes. Can’t scroll up and down on individual programs on guide, only page by page. Every few seconds two adverts pop up, app developer wants £3.99 to opt out!!.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Disconnects all the timeStops working at all for no reason.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Works fine except turning on tvThe remote works fine except two major flaw: 1) cannot turn on tv, 2) always need to wait to reconnect after a few minute of not using the remote..Version: 1.3
✓ Not supportedEven it connects, but doesn't show its switches to make it work. Not worth the time.Version: 1.2
✓ Unusable - mostly due to adsThere do not appear to be directional arrows to select between "smart" apps. Left and right arrows only adjust the volume. Directional buttons might be hidden somewhere in this app, but I'm giving up looking after about 5 minutes because I'm interrupted every 15 seconds by a candy crush ad. How did this get more positive reviews than the other samsung remote apps?.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Disconnects from TVWhen switching between apps on the phone, this app disconnects from the tv so when you switch back to the app it had to reconnect all over again. It means that making checking messages or using another app difficult to do unless you want to go through the reconnection and waiting for the so to come back up. Far far far quicker to use my actual remote control. There is no benefit in having this app. My amp app does better at starting connected to the device. Very poor..Version: 1.3
✓ Not a good appGlad I didn’t purchase the upgrade. Very slow to connect to TV when it starts up. Ads only pop up when you want to use it! Very annoying. Only works when the TV is turned on - doh! What’s the point in that, still need the original remote to turn the TV on before you can use this app. Smart remote by Tinac is much better for my TV (Samsung Series7 UHD) I’ve deleted it, but I guess I’ll count in the numbers who have downloaded it..Version: 1.3
✓ AvoidWe broke our Smart TV remote and to be honest I wasn’t in the mood to pay £50 for a new one so thought this would be a great alternative... In theory this app could be useful but the constant ads are infuriating. I get it that the developer wants money and I’d be inclined to pay it but this app constantly bugs and resets itself. You can’t press more then 3/4 buttons before a super loud and annoying advert starts blaring from your phone and it’s always asking me to put in the access code on the screen several times even while I’m using it. Oh and it’s massive drain on battery life too.Version: 1.3
✓ Don’t buyWorks once then that’s is waste of money don’t buy.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Worst appDisconnects constantly from tv which means you have to reconnect every time you exit the app. And when you get it to work, you have an ad or an invite to purchase premium version EACH and every SiNGLE time you click a button. Do yourself a favour and buy a physical remote.Version: 1.3
✓ Used to workWorked until last update. It is a waste of$7 for the latest version..Version: 1.3
✓ Remote for CHEAP ADDSBeware, this free app is extremely dull & sluggish. But the most annoying thing is the overwhelming number of pop up adds flooding the app while in use. And that’s probably why you’re constantly prompted to upgrade for their $3.99 USD version instead. This is another app designer selling out the user’s quality expectations. You’re just bombarded with cheap annoying adds that only benefit the app designer’s pocket. Nonsense!.Version: 1.3
✓ Ok overallOften unable to connect with the TV unless I reboot my phone just before I would like to use it. Once it does connect, it works as expected.Version: 1.5
✓ Don't waist your time - no keyboardYou have to pay to get the keyboard.....Version: 1.2.2
✓ Samsung reviewWish I could find the remote. This app is clunky compared to the actual remote. They should have just had the same layout instead of changing the layout.Version: 1.3
✓ It’s very disappointingNot worth paying for this Remote Controllar app. Useless and disappointed.Version: 1.3
✓ It was fine until I bought itUsed the free version for almost 3 months with no persistent issues except the ads which don’t really qualify as an issue. HOWEVER, literally the second I buy it I start having serious connectivity issues. For some reason the app can’t stay connected to my tv for more than 9 seconds at a time. This is a huge problem, it makes scrolling through Netflix/Hulu/Prime/YouTube impossible!! I feel like I just paid $4 to be able to turn my tv off(cause you can’t turn it on btw)..Version: 1.3
✓ Doesn't work now...Well after I updated this app it stoped connecting to my Smart Tv. It worked perfectly fine before the update though..Version: 1.2.1
✓ GarbageHorrible , crazy thing is that the free version worked perfectly fine, as soon as you pay for the pro and remove the ads, it doesn’t work, and if the tv is turns off, the app doesn’t let you turn on the tv from the ap, wish I never paid for it. Don’t waist your money !!.Version: 1.3
✓ Better apps out there.I downloaded for my Samsung smart tv. Pop up ads like CRAZY. The connectivity was usually a hassle. Sometimes didn’t work; rare, but nonetheless. Pro cost $4 and with that same cost went with smart remote that had none of those issues. Only reason I had this one for so long was cause the ability to use the directional pad before buying..Version: 1.3
✓ Needs origins remote to connect appBecause the original remote is needed to connect this app to the TV repeatedly, it defeats the purpose. If you’ve lost your original remote, then, based on my experience, you can’t use this app, until you can authorize it to connect to the TV by approving it with the original remote. If you have the original remote, there’s no need for this remote..Version: 1.5
✓ ConnectionEach time trying to connect with same TV need confirmation from TV (you need TV original remote). This just defeats the purpose of the app..Version: 1.5
✓ Worst remote app everI only gave one star because zero wasn’t an option. It takes forever to load/connect to the tv. Every time I want to use the app I have to delete then redownload in order for any of the buttons to work. There are also a ton of ads that pop up making the remote unusable until the ad is over..Version: 1.3
✓ PoorWas working great for all of 24 hours, then loads and kicks off connection and doesn’t connect, restarting or redownloading nothing works, don’t waste your money.Version: 1.3
✓ ThievesBought an app that didn’t work, five minutes later tried to get my money back! What a joke! Don’t let them scam you too!!.Version: 1.3
✓ Doesn’t work even though it states it does for my tv and finds the tvDon’t bother.Version: 1.3
✓ Same as other poor Samsung tv appsIf you want a potential customer to buy the app then let them test it first in its entirety..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Not strong enoughUnable to retrieve my Samsung TV when shut down... Also the keyboard isn't activated after purchasing full version... I sent a nay but no response... Disappointed.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Total garbageDon’t throw your money away.Version: 1.3
✓ No longer connectsWorked great as the free app, and then we upgraded to the full version when our Samsung remote got damaged. Worked for two days... and now it refuses to connect. It times out after half a second. How convenient... pay for the upgrade and all of a sudden doesn’t work. VERY disappointing..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Doesn’t workIt doesn’t even work to pull up the smart hub! DONT BUY.Version: 1.5
✓ A War CrimeDon’t even consider this. The greedy developer’s top priority is to assault you with sketchy ads, some that take you to malware sites and scams. This would be a very dangerous app for someone to run if they are susceptible to online ad scams and phishing. You cannot even evaluate the app without dealing with the onslaught of misleading ads. It’s like tying a string to a $20 bill and dragging it through a crack den. You know what you are going to get. The solution is to not go near apps that treat their would be customers like bait. Uninstalled..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Not workingWasted my time nd money.. I bought the remotie which guided me to remotie2.. I paid for full version but not able to get it without adds.Sent number off emails/ feed backs but nobody is responding...sorry.Version: 1.2.2
✓ App fixed??? Working again??? Noooooooooo!!!This app had been updated and was working again. Now app has stopped working again with the same error message(?). This is very frustrating and has made me lose confidence with the app, and the company. So despite having paid for it, and being impressed when it worked, I’ve had to throw it away because it’s too unreliable. I’m slightly annoyed because I’ve been quite patient and accept I probably won’t be refunded, but this app shouldn’t still be in the App Store until it’s been properly fixed..Version: 1.2.1
✓ AdsAds in app appear far too frequently to force a paid upgrade. Maybe consider a day free of the ads. Instantly deleted..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Cancer on my iPadInstant hatred for this app. The pop-up ads try to harass you into buying the add-free version and make this app absolutely awful and the free version unusable as far as I’m concerned. I had this app running for a total of 10 minutes and had to shut down and restart 3 times. Was presented with at least 8 full-screen “hijack the device” adds in that short time. Really wanted to like it, and I typically pay for ad-free upgrades but this was too much. DELETE. Seemed promising until it sucked..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Junky app full of adsDon’t waste your time with this app as it won’t work most of time. They show annoying ads every 5 minutes, yes, every 5 minutes. Doesn’t detect my Samsung TV most of times. Ads stay for at least 3-5 seconds..Version: 1.2.2
✓ No feedbackSeveral times I’ve written to you and not once have I had a reply. What’s the point?.Version: 1.3
✓ No keyboard option for NetflixThe selling point of this app to me was being able to type in search field on Netflix and Amazon Video. Doesn't do it so no better that Samsung's own free version. It makes a selling point of the keyboard feature but the incompatibility with important apps is in the small print..Version: 1.2
✓ How do I customize the remote?I’ve purchased the pro version but still cannot find how to customize the buttons. I’d give it five stars if I could find how to customize it. Help, anyone?.Version: 1.4.1
✓ App stopped auto-connecting to TV!Since recent update the app doesn’t auto-connect to TV anymore even this is enabled as a setting. Have to keep selecting ‘Allow’ with physical remote to then make it work with iOS device. This is especially annoying if physical remote control is out of reach.. Please fix, as a paid app this disappointing..Version: 1.5
✓ 1. Not sure yet - 2. UPDATE: I’m sure now1. First Review: App seems to work ok. Doesn’t show up in Family Share. So the upgrade purchase can not be shared in the family. Everyone has to purchase the upgrade separately to get the full use of the app. Not impressed. We are waiting to see if we get a response about that first before deleting it. 2. Second Review: DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. I changed my review to a 1 star from 2. It was working and now it won’t connect at all. Even with the paid upgrade version. It flashes then it spins searching. In a situation like this there should be an option to get your money back. BEWARE..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Beautiful app. Critical flawA stunning looking app. Don’t mind paying to remove ads either. However, that is all undone by omitting IOS backgrounding support. Using the app 20 times in a session is an exercise in futility. The app resyncs every time you click off it. I’m using another remote app now, while not as pretty, at least works without reconnecting every time I want to adjust the volume!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Connects to TV but.......I am able to connect to my tv, but there’s no way for me to get to the control to actually use the remote. This app make me nervous having access to IP addresses and connecting to my television especially since I could not use the app..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Junk appHook line and sink; this app worked great, so I decided to support it and get the full app without ads. What a total waste of money. I wrote a email to the support line and of course, no response. I would like my money back. This remote app is garbage; stay far away folks..Version: 1.2.1
✓ RefundYou have to literally disconnect and start completely over each time to operate the remote. If you’re looking to hurry and watch tv, this is not the remote you should get. It doesn’t do what you pay it to do and that is UNFORTUNATE. If ever I felt a refund was necessary, this would be it..Version: 1.2.2
✓ UselessNot recommended. The App needs to be on constantly for it to work. Anytime you do anything else on your phone the App disconnects and you need to either use your control to reconnect or walk tot the TV. Waste of time..Version: 1.5
✓ PermissionIt always asks me (every single time I connect) to allow my phone to connect the Remotie app which you have to do with the tv remote, well then I might as well use the tv remote instead of the app!!! I downloaded this app specifically for when my tv remote is misplaced (happens often in this house with kids) or not working and the app was working wonderfully but I don’t know what’s happened, maybe in the last update? It won’t let me connect without allowing it from the tv with the remote which I can’t find right now and that’s why I’m using the app. GRRRRRRR frustrating to say the least. One star!.Version: 1.5
✓ RemoteCan’t connect paid for mo add and just not working.Version: 1.3
✓ HopelessDon’t waste your money. I downloaded this app on two devices. Each time you open the app a notification on the TV requires you to allow the app to work. The only way you can tick yes is by using another TV remote so you can press the OK button, which defeats the reason to have the app. I email the developer nearly two weeks ago, no reply..Version: 1.5
✓ It had problems now not workingI had small issues before. After I updated the app now I can find my TV discovered. I can’t use it..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Trackpad very poorThis app is pretty to look at but performs very poorly. Features the same as free alternatives. Trackpad is erratic and extremely frustrating to use. I went back to mytifi..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Bad appDoesn’t work. At all.Version: 1.5
✓ Bombarded by ads every 7 secondsUntil you pay up. Not sure if it even works through all the ads, stick to the Samsung app, even it is less annoying..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Remotie pro doesn't work on iPadI paid 4.99 for the upgrade to Remotie pro and got a message to say I needed helper app. It does not appear to work. Quick enough to take my money though!!.Version: 1.2
✓ No longer works after short time in use.Like the “no longer working” review. Paid for the app and it stopped working and won’t connect. Even removed and re-added... still won’t connect. Now free app says to upgrade for a certain number of models..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Not the best. Room for improvement.Keeps cutting out or not working. Sometimes you can only change the channel or volume but not turn the tv off. Feels like the 80s at our house, never walked to the tv so much..Version: 1.3
✓ This app has its purposeWhile the app isn’t perfect, people who complain that they may as well use their TV remote, the advantage of you using your phone is when your TV remote doesn’t work. Occasionally my Samsung TV remote will turn the TV on & off but do nothing else. That’s where apps ***like*** this one are handy. It allows me to use my TV until my Samsung remote finished its hissy fit. While the app allows you to turn the TV off, I’m not sure you can use it to turn the TV on.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Really awesome when it worksIt usually doesn’t work when I start it so I have to disconnect and reconnect devices. Just a little inconvenient but it works great after that.Version: 1.3
✓ Waste of moneyApp worked on and off for a year, now both versions don’t work at all and zero support/response from developer..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Could be great if all functions worked againSamsung Smarthub and touchpad Select functionality no longer work, as they did several IOS updates ago..Version: 1.5
✓ Yuck!!!What a waste of money. After paying for an app that was working but had many ads before has decided not to work now that it is paid for..Version: 1.2.1
✓ DONT WASTE YOUR MONEYI paid to upgrade to pro app (that’s a joke) as I wanted the keyboard to make using tv log in easier. After paying the £3.99 !!!! What do I get NOTHING just fewer adds not impressed. DO NOT UPGRADE. DO NOT PAY ANY MONEY OUT. only given one star as I can’t give a zero star..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Rarely worksRarely works..Version: 1.3
✓ NavigationI downloaded it for the cursor movement on screen. It could be a lot better at moving. It’s really hard, but hopefully I’ll get used to it. The rest is awesome. Keyboard could sync a bit faster with the on screen input field..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Bull crapI would give this a 4 star if I could have attempted trying this remote without being bombarded by literally 7 or more ads in less than 3 minutes. Every time I tried to use the arrows for typing on my tv keyboard an add would pop up within 10 second intervals exactly. It has a great layout. I love the arrows. It would be great if it had an actual keyboard on it. Also if the bloody ads would chill out long enough for me to decide if I want to keep it. Unfortunately I would rather go pay 30 bucks for another tv remote than pay the 3.99 for something I can’t properly check out. Sorry guys. What a bummer..Version: 1.3
✓ Romotie and romotie2Both cannot discover my samsung un series 2018 model pluse i spent $6 to update it so I could use the key pad its never worked and I never get a response when i send in feed back for help BEWARE Seems like a scam.Version: 1.4.1
✓ JunkRubbish support, emailed many times with issue and never received a reply..Version: 1.4.1
✓ WorksWorks but now it makes my iPhone 11 and iPhone 8 run burning hot.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Not impressedEasier to use the actual remote to sign into accounts on my tv than use this as there is no keyboard as expected. Swiping left and right on the iPad screen will skip characters on the keyboard making it more difficult to use. Uninstalled already..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Works, but paywall for a basic featureThe key feature of navigation to control apps, menu items is locked to a paywall. Only use it has is if you want to switch channels, change volume levels, pause, play, etc..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Connection lossConstantly loses connection with my TV and the power button doesn’t work. Otherwise very helpful now that our dog has had the remote for dinner..Version: 1.3
✓ UselessRemotie 1 seemed to be a good app. Remotie 2... well... just installed the app, opened it and 5 seconds later, an AD! Ok... Then you want to use the touchpad... “pay us 5,50$ then you’ll become a PRO customer”... haha bye bye Remotie 2! Uninstalling it right away..Version: 1.3
✓ A Con - Doesn't work for (2014 - 2015)I have the Remotie so told me to download Remotie 2 as will work for series H onwards but when you run the application message appears series H & J will be updated on the next version of the application so was I told to download the application when it doesn't work! A total lie and scam!!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Not worth the moneyPaid money for this app and it’s not worth it. Paid app doesn’t allow users to use the qwerty keyboard on my iPhone to search titles faster. I thought that’s what I was paying for. Highly disappointed..Version: 1.4
✓ SucksDid not work.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Do not buy itHi everyone. Do not buy it no worth your money and your time. That app not work with and Samsung tv!!.Version: 1.3
✓ Pro doesn’t workThe pro version of this app needs some serious TLC, the virtual mouse was absolutely un-usable when set to any sensitivity it just shot around the screen completely out of control and it was not made clear that the virtual keyboard would barely work on any apps (only those that I assume use the system Samsung keyboard) I cancelled my purchase as it was so incredibly useless. Would recommend using the Samsung Smart View app as that actually functions (for free!) as expected!.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Not freeApp is unusable without paying for the premium version..Version: 1.2.2
✓ How about some customer service.Why does this app stop working a few days after purchasing? I'm not the only one! So how about with all that money you have made with the 4,000,000 downloads you sort it out for your paying customers?.Version: 1.3
✓ Touch Pad very slow and poor, remote reconnects every timeTouch Pad very slow and poor, remote reconnects every time and have to enter passcode everytime open the app..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Terribly intrusive adsPop up video ads with intrusive sound while trying to use remote. Most important functionality (smart tv navigation) is disabled for free version, can’t even be tested in free version. Dark UX practices. Avoid..Version: 1.2.1
✓ AdsI get that free apps have ads but having an ad pop over the screen every button press makes it pretty tough to recommend. It does work though..Version: 1.4
✓ This remote can not turn on a tv?I purchased the pro app before realizing this app doesn’t have the ability to turn on a tv (It can only can turn it off). This is obviously the single most important feature of any remote control and should be more clearly noted in the download and advertising. Very close to being an exceptional product but this purchase left me feeling a little bit disappointed and dare I say misled. I contacted customer service to troubleshoot and would most defiantly update this review with 5 stars if resolved..Version: 1.3
✓ Was ok now it’s notZero support from Kraftwerk9. The app was working, but after update no longer discovers the device. Super frustrating after paying for the app post trial period. Don’t pay for it..Version: 1.5
✓ Can’t turn tv onThe app won’t connect to the tv when it’s off. It also has to reconnect every single time your phone turns off, other than that the could be great..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Want to see ads?It’s very difficult to give this app much more than two stars. Maybe if I could actually try out the free version I’d be able to say it was better than that. But I had a hard time, like I see others did too, doing anything with the app before a new ad would pop up. In their defense other free remote apps do the same thing... but that’s still frustrating..Version: 1.3
✓ Awesome BUTIts an amazing app automatically picked up my tv without any issues works better than the original controller.......BUT the adds are out of control!!!! I should not have to buy a simplistic app to use it without adds. I have a ton of games that do not throw out this many adds!! Id give a five star because this works amazingly but the adds are out of control.Version: 1.2.1
✓ MouseIt’s crap just bought it for the mouse n it don’t go where it should.Version: 1.5
✓ Its whateverThis only works 50% of the time. frustrating at times.Version: 1.3
✓ Just doesn’t workDownloaded the older app and it was awful didn’t do half of what the remote can do and lay out wrong plus there where add pop ups everywhere. So downloaded this one and it’s telling me that my tv is too old and is not supported and to download the older version? The lay out in this app matches my current t remote layouts even with the touch pad control I have!?.Version: 1.3
✓ MrWorks like half the time other times it doesn’t.Version: 1.5
✓ It’s ridiculousSometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. It’s not worth the money. The creator also doesn’t answer their emails. So what’s the use in sending them feedback..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Crappy appIt takes for ever to load and connect. If I switch to another app and comes back then it reloads again and takes for ever to connect even though I am literally standing in front of the TV. It does not worth the money.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Very weakSo it’s cool at first. Then I hit tools to put on a sleep timer, how do I move the cursor. O they want you to buy that feature, no way to select what you want with the touch pad option, it’s a add on. Waste of my time. Don’t download unless you want to pay to use.Version: 1.2.2
✓ It does the job but no worth of payingThe free apps does the same job crap!!!!!!!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Seriously???Video (yes VIDEO) adverts thrown at the screen - that’s what you’re going with to try to make me buy this? Another potentially great app screwed up by advertising so insane and interruptive that I’m totally unable (and therefore unwilling) to even bother to use it long enough to decide if ever I wanted to pay for this Less greed more user chance to try - lost me as a buyer immediately.Version: 1.3
