✓ Won’t keep syncedApp remote loses connection with Firestock and won’t allow reconnection unless app reloaded. Disappointed..Version: 1.1.3
✓ I’m sure it works well and all…I wish there was a different way to set the remote up. I mean it’s asking us to go to settings and configure a few things in the settings on the fire TV in order to link the remote on the phone to the TV. If I had the original remote that I lost, I would not need a remote on my phone..Version: 1.0.9

✓ Scam - Don’t BuyJust paid $9.99 for a lifetime purchase to find that this app freezes when connecting to my device and doesn’t work at all. I was in serious need of this device when I purchased it. Spent more than 20-30 minutes of a work meeting trifle shooting it to find that it doesn’t work. DO NOT BUY.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Does not work!I paid for the premium, it says it’s connected to my fire stick but it is not working please could I have a refund ?.Version: 1.0.9
✓ I’d give 0 stars if I couldI bought the $9.99 unlimited package and the app never worked. It said it synced to my fire stick and the remote never worked. I emailed the company to get a refund and still haven’t heard back. Downloaded the free fire stick tv app and that remote worked instantly, don’t waste your money..Version: 1.0.8
✓ DO NOT DOWNLOADPaid for the $9.99 version for the whole year and app doesn’t work. Once connected to my fire stick I automatically received a debug notification that I was unable to cancel because THE APP didn’t work. Completely false information and advertisement, should definitely be removed from the APP Store..Version: 1.0.8

✓ The worst app ever.They instantly try to get you to pay them. It’s useless unless you pay. They want you to pay weekly payments.

There is a much better one out there called Fire TV that works perfectly..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Waste of timeReally disappointed. It doesn’t do anything, despite paying for premium service..Version: 1.0.8
✓ SucksWe have something on here that doesn’t work.. remove from the App Store...Version: 1.0.4
✓ Basically it’s just ads. Don’t bother.Adverts are ruining apps completely, they don’t work and are very annoying..Version: 1.0.7
✓ ShockingConsidering there’s lots of free versions available, I presumed paying for this one it would provide some sort of more quality service. Doesn’t connect to any firesticks in my home. Do not buy.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Scam -full of addsJunk, that’s all it is. Wonder why Apple allow apps like this in the store..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Bad appWhy do you put ads on this this is why I’m waiting you wanna start I hate your game.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Does not connect, waste of MoneyIt doesn’t seem to connect, work or worth any money! It asks you to pay before you even connect or try it..Version: 1.0.7
✓ This app is a scamI just love (not) how I had to spend $10 on an app that is supposed to be a replacement for a remote, when you actually need the physical remote to even use the app. Why on earth would I purchase a remote app if I actually had my remote? This is a scam. Going to try and hopefully get my money back..Version: 1.0.8
✓ $10/month is insaneYou can try the remote for free for 3 days but $10 after that. Ridiculous. I don’t mind paying but this is very expensive for an app..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Avoid this waste of timeUnless you want to play games every button you press do not even download this app they will take money off you and you won’t get it back.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Automatically charged and app DOES NOT WORKOnly downloaded...didn’t even choose an option and remote just showed up and I was charged $15 for a subscription. It only did I not chose this or any option, it doesn’t even work...AT ALL!! REFUND NOW!!!!!!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ BadGlad I was able to try first ... it does not work!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Doesn’t even workDoesn’t do anything, can’t use it. Even bought premium and still doesn’t even work. So useless..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Answer this in 72 hrsThis app is a scam. If I don’t get my money back within 72 hours I will take it to small claims court (where I work) and will let a judge decide how many of these bad reviews you need to compensate. 72 hours..Version: 1.0.9
✓ It doesn’t workThe app won’t work and now I can’t work out how to cancel it and the link points to an error on the website. So disappointing.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Doesn’t workDownloaded as I have lost my remote. Connected ok but just isn’t doing anything. I’m pressing buttons on my phone on the ‘remote’ and it isn’t translating to the tv.Version: 1.0.9
✓ Fraudulent charges after trying and canceling the 3 day trialHad to contact Apple to get 20 charges refunded on my credit card over three days ! Joined the free three day trial and after an hour canceling as I was not impressed with the app. 3 days later charges began going to my credit card first in small amounts and increasing to 30 dollars plus ! Had to cancel my credit card to ensure the charges would stop. Apple helpful in addressing the situation. Trying to contact the developers now..Version: 1.0.9
✓ Didn’t work. Nothing happened. GarbageDidn’t work. Nothing happened. Garbage.Version: 1.0.7
✓ DOESNT WORK! Scam! Remove from App Store!This app doesn’t work as advertised. Do not download, it’s a scam..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Fire premium remoteShould not have to purchase. We already purchased the entire product the remote does not come with any type of locating features while it’s designed to be misplaced. Due to the lack of locating features available like a “find my remote” the app with the premium features should be available as a feature back up for lost or broken controllers because they also break pretty easily. But that’s just my opinion..Version: 1.0.8
✓ DO NOT PURCHASEI paid full price for this remote with high hopes that it would work. It will not connect to my fire stick (the remote screen pops up but nothing happens), and when I try to click the “send feedback” button to attempt to get my money back, it says there was an issue with sending my message. I should have read the other reviews before purchasing. Do not waste your time and money like I did..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Didn’t even workPaid 8.99 for premium remote and it didn’t even work!!.Version: 1.0.8
✓ TerribleNot working for me.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Simply does not workNo control for apps as promised, certainly not the mouse control. A waste of my money..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Beware$4.99 per week for this app, when Amazon has a free one available..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Fire stick remoteIt takes very long to connect not impressed with the app and when it finally connected I tried to use it and my TV did nothing I wouldn’t recommend this app but this is only just my review.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Glitchy but it works?The app works fine, but it constantly disconnects or just won’t connect at all. Also, why set it up so you need the remote to connect the remote app? I wish I had my my actual remote so I didn’t have to deal with this.Version: 1.0.9
✓ UselessIf you are looking for an app because you have misplaced your Alexa remote, keep looking. You must have the original remote to set this up: why in the name of all that is reasonable would you pay $3 per week for a remote if you already have a stupid remote? Waste of freaking time..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Don’t fall for the misleading in-app purchases amountThe in-app cost states $2.99 until you install and say “Continue” - only then does it say $2.99 per week. It is a remote control app. Um, no. Don’t bother. If they cannot be upfront in their description you can’t expect much from them otherwise..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Absolutely terribleDoesn’t even work.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Really PoorI bought the premium version and it wouldn’t work. I have tried contacting the developers through different ways and have had no response. The app doesn’t work and service is no existent. Save your money. Avoid..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Waste of MoneyI just paid $10, for a remote because I thought my batteries was dead in remote. Turns out the batteries wasn’t dead, firestick was just frozen. Restarted the firestick and got the regular remote to work, set up the app remote. Once I got the app remote set up, it doesn’t even work. What a waste of ten bucks!.Version: 1.0.8
✓ SCAMMEDI just paid £9 for the premium remote and it doesn’t work money has come out of my account and the remote is still bringing me up options to pay won’t let me use it !!!!.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Rip ofI down loaded this app and couldn’t get to use so deleted it and it’s been taking money from my bank ever since over £10 a month! Avoid.Version: 1.0.4
✓ On/OffI couldn’t access any of the functions on this remote until I purchased it so I did. Then come to find out you can’t even turn the TV on or off the volume up or down or change the channels with this remote. Highly dissatisfied..Version: 1.0.7
✓ The worst don’t get!Worst fire tv app on record… add like crazy and will not let you connect, use any of the functions or sound until an ad plays. Stupid..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Does not work!Downloaded the app. Connected to the device but cannot operate it at all……Do not pay the £8.99 It’s a rip off..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Bad app does not workRemote app does not work and when subscription cancelled. Funds are still taken. Don’t buy.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Literal scamHow does app store let this slide. Literal scam not a joke..Version: 1.0.8
✓ I mean-It lets you choose devices and all.. but the thing is- It won’t let me (at least) control the actual tv. It just gives you ads for the premium remote. Sorry but...Version: 1.0.8
✓ Doesn’t work, then asks for payment for premium.Has never worked. Today it kept trying to get me to pay for premium. Like an idiot, I did. Still doesn’t work and as the app won’t work, I can’t request my money back. 0/10. Do not recommend..Version: 1.0.8
✓ It’s just a bunch of adsI tried to use the app. I had trouble connecting. I got the free trial to see if I liked it. Good thing I didn’t buy the subscription. Once it finally connected the app bombarded me with adds that had no way to close them. A free trial should be like the real thing. If the real thing is like this it’s garbage..Version: 1.0.8
✓ UselessDoesn’t work at all I paid money but based upon the other reviews I’m seeing I need my original fire stick remote to set it up, which is pretty pointless because mine is broken. Best part is there’s no way to get a refund if you try.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Doesn’t workJust straight up does not work. And no, I’m not technically incompetent. I’ve built computers, worked in multiple design programs such as illustrator, photoshop, Final Cut Pro, and others… I followed instructions and did some trouble shooting. Just doesn’t work. I’d like a refund..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Don’t botherI thought getting this app would be great as the repost is small and easy to lose but this did absolutely nothing. I even paid for the premium and still nothing and it’s ridiculous that you even have to pay to access a device you’ve already bought. £10 just to change the channel?? Insane..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Bad App Don’t Get!!I lost my fire stick remote, and didn’t intend on getting a new one because they’re expensive. You’re just going to have to buy a new remote. This app charges you, you also have to have your remote to pair this app. Don’t get not worth your time.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Garbage!I just payed for the year and it dosent work at all. Non of the buttons do anything. Downloaded another app for free non the less and it works amazing! I’d like a refund please!! Can’t find anywhere to complain about this to get my money back either... sketchy?!?.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Subscription bewareI didn’t notice there was a three day free trail and got stuck paying $3.21. Beware of that before they get you too. Remote didn’t even work. You have to have your fire stick remote to enable the use of your phone as a remote. What’s the point? I downloaded the app because I lost my remote. Crap!!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Worst app everConstant barrage of advertisements makes the app unusable. There is an ad every 5 seconds..Version: 1.1.2
✓ Don’t recommendThis app is very laggy, lots of adds, I doesn’t really work, I don’t recommend it..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Waste of timeThis is the worst app ever. connected to my device but i couldn't move the cursor or select anything. ads every .0001 second. buggy layout. makes you pay for "premium remote". offers a free trial that DOESNT WORK. once again buggy layout. save your energy and order a new remote online..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Premium purchaseDoes not work properly on new fire stick TV? How can you refund me if the app does not work??.Version: 1.0.8
✓ UselessI thought this would be a simple free to use fire stick remote. On opening straight away it bombarded me to purchase the premium version. £2.79 per week…. Are you kidding me? What were you thinking about? Why would anyone pay you £2.79 per week for a simple remote which other developers do for free? Shocking. Save your time. Don’t bother. I’m still in complete amazement!.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Waste of my timeWhile trying to set it up it immediately asked me to rate it. Can I at least try it first!? After that it acted like it was connected to something and I couldn’t get back to the setup screens. Again, a waste of my time..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Didn’t workCouldn’t even get it to sync to any of my TVs, although it certainly pretended it had. Glad I did the free trial before paying $10 for nothing. The fact that this app is even needed speaks to how crappy the fire stick is. I can’t get the remotes that come with it to pair with it either most of the time..Version: 1.0.7
✓ UselessI lost my control to the 2nd Gen Firestick. I thought this was a great idea until I downloaded it. The app found my firestick but none of the features worked so I followed the directions that lead you into Setting and turned on the ADB but no Nothing changed. Wast of time space..Version: 1.0.8
✓ ConnectionConnection is to in consistent, if you’ve got the patience to wait 5 mins every time you want to change channel then crack on..Version: 1.1.3
✓ I hate itI downloaded this app bc well my remote wasn’t working cus it needed new batteries. Like it doesn’t even work I connected it to my tv and when I was trying to use the buttons and it didn’t even move, do not download this app it’s a waste of time like why would you even make it?!? It doesn’t work, wants you to PAY MONEY for something that doesn’t work what’s next charge $4.99 for the app that doesn't work don't wast your time on this stupid app it will do NOTHING for you 😐👎.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Fire TV remoteI don’t think you should have to pay for a remote and I don’t think it works as good as the original one it’s just that I have my phone with me more often than I have the real remote control with me at all times but I’m going to go ahead and delete it out of my apps.Version: 1.0.7
✓ It’s not connectingIt’s not connecting.Version: 1.0.3
✓ DO NOT GETNEED the original remote to use at all . Automatically asks for card info and once processed the remote does not even work . Unresponsive tried all different ways. And no way to remove card info from what I’ve seen.Version: 1.0.9
✓ Pointless??Hehehe to be able to allow my tv to connect to it I would have to use the remote to click "yes" ✌️ so thanks 😅😅 fire tv app which includes the remote worked in 5 seconds, I recommend that one instead 💙.Version: 1.0.8
✓ What a wasteSo I lost my fire tv remote…the reason I needed the app and you need your remote to set up the app. Ridiculous if you ask me. Why would anyone pay for a remote app on their phone if they had a physical remote to use the tv! Canceled my subscription real quick.Version: 1.0.8
✓ SucksThe app won’t connect to my fire tv.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Messed up my fire tv.. I couldn’t even use it because I needed my fire tv remote to setup the smart remote so the point was mute. I was trying to use a smart remote because my remote was lost. Luckily I found my remote and never got the smart remote working. After I found my remote I couldn’t get the smart remote set up screen off my tv, so I had to unplug it - then my remote would not work so I had to reset my remote. Your app description should say “you’ll need your remote to set up this smart remote”.Version: 1.1.2
✓ Unwanted appPlease refund my amount as your app is not functional as expected. App functionality is so slow that click made before and after are working together at once that is not selecting channels which I wanted..Version: 1.0.7
✓ It doesn’t workI even paid for premium and it just doesn’t work.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Fire stick remotePlease explain it to me why you have to use my location for a remote control and why is there adds for a remote control there’s no need for it period anything to get our information for once I would like someone to do something that doesn’t require my location my pictures my contacts or any other permissions is it possible????????? Don’t bother with this app it’s not worth it there’s adds and other crap that’s come with it $$$$$$.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Does not workScam app is dumb.Version: 1.1.2
✓ Zero stars If I couldIt was free a while back and I go on it today for the first in a while and you have to pay for everything, ridiculous.Version: 1.0.7
✓ $10 Monthly subscription!! lolYou: Honey! Honey! Wife: yes my love You: why are we out of milk for a month now? Wife: oh our bills have increased now You: why! How! Wife: we’re now paying a monthly $10 remote control app You: honey, I’m filing for a divorce.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Crazy price for this app that doesn't seem to even workCrazy price for this app that doesn't seem to even work Can get past advertisement or screen asking for a large weekly payment.Version: 1.0.7
✓ SCAMDoesn’t work unless you buy the premium version!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ I purchased the weekly premium version and I can’t get access to premium contentI purchased the $2.99 weekly “premium” version of the app and every time I tried to use the “interaction” it kept telling me I need to buy the premium remote! After I already subscribed. Makes no sense. Fix your app.Version: 1.0.8
✓ ShegiteIf you have lost remote this app doesn’t help as u need remote to go to settings would have given 5 star as easy ness etc would have deffo been there.Version: 1.0.4
✓ GarbageOnly thing working is the ads… shame on you! I refuse to pay for garbage like this..Version: 1.0.8
✓ No goodMy control stopped working. Downloaded this but you can’t connect it without going on your fire stick settings. Obviously you can’t get on your settings if you control is lost or not working..Version: 1.0.9
✓ Lame.I don’t know about the paid version, but the “free” version is garbage. Impossible to use. Super slow and ads every minute. Absolutely useless..Version: 1.0.7
✓ Have to buy premium just to have a volume buttonThe app used to have all the remote features for free, but now you have to pay a subscription for the things that were free before! I can’t control the volume without paying between $3 and $10! They took away the keyboard for searching and the volume, so now you’re left with basic up/down/left/right, select, menu, back, and fast forward/rewind. I wouldn’t be complaining if I didn’t know that all of the features on the remote were completely free less than two weeks ago when I last used this app to watch tv. They’re squeezing you for every penny instead of leaving it free..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Do not recommend.I don’t understand why you have to pay monthly for a remote. users have the tv & everything else that is being paid for, so why would you charge for a remote? roku doesn’t do that & this was beyond frustrating. the buttons on the screen did not even work. it didn’t matter how many times i waited & repushed the buttons, i got 0 response from the tv. i do not recommend this app to anyone at all unless you’re looking for a waste of time..Version: 1.0.8
✓ Does not work at all.I feel like I got scammed. I downloaded this app so I can use it for my tv until I can get new batteries for the remote but it is completely useless. It does not work at all. I even subscribed to the weekly premium features for free for three days and it does nothing. Just like my physical remote. Now I have no idea how to cancel this subscription and it feels like I was scammed. Don’t bother with this app..Version: 1.0.9
✓ HorribleDoesn’t connect.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Don’t bother wasting your timeComplete waste of time, don’t even bother downloading.Version: 1.0.8
✓ LOLThey’re quick to charge you money for a thing that doesn’t work. Lucky you get a trial otherwise I wouldn’t be happy. Don’t bother, it doesn’t work.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Sucks.This app is a container of adds. Three ada in a row every 1 min. Gosh.Version: 1.0.8
