Smart TV Remote Control for Negative User Reviews
✓ Don’t downloadThe OK button doesn’t work, not worth the time to download.Version: 2.7
✓ Very limitedI downloaded this app to work with my Apple Watch, but Apple Watch controls only work with the premium version which you have to pay for. It sure would be nice to at least have some limited Apple Watch control with the free version, but no. Totally useless in that regard..Version: 2.94
✓ Software not workingThis software constantly locks up, and the watch app is completely non functioning. I would not recommend this to anyone..Version: 2.81
✓ PremiumCould use improvements, I got it set up for shortcuts using Siri. It does work sometimes. Sometimes it will say the app is having issue but will also still perform the task..Version: 2.81
✓ Stopped working after the updateI never had a problem with the app till I updated it , now only the volume works, can’t open up my apps, willing to change the star rate after problem has been fixed, please and thank you ..Version: 2.7
✓ Non-stop adsI downloaded the App and whenever I tried to change channels or the volume I got an ad ... I deleted it after 5mins.Version: 2.7
✓ WARNINGPaid for premium and it does absolutely nothing! Just keeps asking you to upgrade again. Total tip off, tried sending them a bug report though the app and that feature of the app doesn’t work either! Apple should really investigate this developer, how they approved this app in the first place is beyond me..Version: 2.6
✓ Asking me to pay again for featuresPrevious features included in a paid pack agree now moved to another paid tier. Reduced functionality is a bit of a joke when I used to have access..Version: 2.81
✓ Terrible waste of moneyI just purchased the premium version. Worked for literally 2 seconds now it won’t do anything. I’d like a refund please!.Version: 2.5
✓ Great before purchaseThis was great before I purchased the no ad option now it’s garbage. Rarely works. Turns the TV on great but nothing else works well. Garbage..Version: 2.7
✓ UselessNothing works. Literally. Even rate button from inside the app lol.Version: 1.0
✓ Endless annoying pop upsTerrible. Can’t even get to a show with endless annoying pop ups.Version: 2.5
✓ Very oddSo, this app appears to do everything I want. But fails spectacularly. First, it will only let me add one TV. I have two LG TVs, different models; I can only add one at a time. Trying to search for a second TV just doesn’t return anything. Also, on both models of TV (43UK6300PLB, 49LK5900PLA) the ok button doesn’t work in the app. There is no button to select any of the menu items (it is possible to use the cursor and touchpad but that’s quite tedious). It’s a shame as the other features (text entry, turn tv ON) are exactly what I was looking for..Version: 2.7
✓ HorribleI should’ve read the reviews before downloading this horrible app there is way too many ads and it only lets me go side to side or up and down it will not let me turn up the volume or go to a different channel or click on a video the app had too many ads it hurt my head.Version: 2.81
✓ New upgrade ruined the appI payed about £5 for this app initially when I downloaded it less than a year ago for the premium version and I was very happy with the app. It’s new update makes you pay even more for things you previously got when paying the initial premium price, so things I was able to use I am now not and they’re asking for more money for features I’d already payed for. Not good and not worth it..Version: 2.8
✓ Need to upgrade for £10 a month just to use the dam thingNeed to upgrade for £10 a month just to use the dam thing.Version: 2.91
✓ “OK” Button Not WorkingMy “OK” button never works when I click it, that is my only issue with the app so far.Version: 2.7
✓ Apple Watch app doesn’t workThe whole reason I bought this app was for the Apple Watch functionality. I keep opening the app on my watch and it closes / freezes. I have contacted this apps developers via support link but no word..Version: 2.81
✓ Do not buy!I bought this remote and paid the full price for it. I cannot control my tv from my watch so that was money wasted! The watch ap does NOT work!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Now every time I try to use my phone it has a connection request so I have to have the actual tv remote to confirm I’m allowed to use my phone..... EVERYTIME I push any button .... so what is the actual point if I have to use the actual remote anyway. Can I please give this a negative 5 stars?.Version: 2.81
✓ App won’t connect to tvIt’s an awful app. Don’t waste your money. It won’t even connect to my tv..Version: 2.7
✓ This app didn’t worked on Apple Watch 5.0When I was installed this app on my iPhone, I connected it to my TV without any problem and It worked well on my iPhone (my iPhone model is : 7plus and my iOS : 13.3) But this app didn't work on my apple watch at all (My watch is series 5 , and my watch OS : 6.1.1) When I touch on this app icon on the Apple Watch, nothing happens and the program doesn't open at all.Version: 2.81
✓ HmmBeen using this app for more than a year and since they’ve updated this app with new facelift layout. My power button won’t let me turn my tv off any more for some what reasons it think my tv is off when it’s still on..Version: 2.8
✓ Middle button doesn’t work.Love the idea of a widget and a Apple Watch controller. The main enter button (between the arrows) doesn’t work with my LG UM7400PLB. Until I have a enter button I wouldn’t consider buying it..Version: 2.81
✓ Won’t connectWas using this app beautifully until you decided to “update it” now it won’t connect. Takes 10 times longer to do anything. Netflix is hard to get to. You now want me to pay to upgrade what was working perfectly. Way to pry money out of people. I’ll be going elsewhere and watching closely for your company name do I do not use your products ever again. Never had an issue like this with any other app company. Complete rip off..Version: 2.8
✓ Both watch app and iPhone app not working!Tested on my JVC tv and was working to control the volume so bought the premium and now nothing works! Watch App crashes as soon as I open it too!!! Wasted £5.99 and want a refund! Avoid this app!!.Version: 2.81
✓ Shit appLost my control so downloaded this app, it turned my tv all the way down and now the app doesn’t work 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️.Version: 2.81
✓ Waste of timeIf you don't pay the adds pop up almost every time you adjust volume or do anything that requires moe than 6 touches Don't bother.Version: 2.0
✓ Not bad but,It’s pretty good. Needs a scroll bar on touchpad screen. A back button would be great also. Also needs to be easier to hide keyboard on devices. 👍.Version: 2.7
✓ UselessUseless - give me my money back and compensation for my wasted "downtime".Version: 2.3
✓ If you bought this, ask Apple for a refundI paid $13 for this only for the developer to switch to a subscription model a year later and revoke my premium license. Will report this and send as many emails as possible until the problem is solved. This is stealing!.Version: 2.93
✓ Would not workWouldn't do anything. Just a picture with no obvious function..Version: 1.0
✓ Almost GreatLove the app, but it has a few serious bugs. The directional pad select button doesn’t work, the watch app doesn’t open, the play/pause buttons don’t work on most WebOS apps, you can’t rearrange apps on the app screen, and there is no play/pause Siri shortcut available. For a $10 app, there should be ZERO bugs. The developers don’t seem active either, which is a massive shame. This is the only app I’ve found that actually lets you turn on the TV from the app, so my options are limited. As far as polish, UI, and general functionality, there are far better apps out there. Save your money until they fix the serious problems..Version: 2.81
✓ Watch App Doesn’t WorkWorks on iPhone, Watch App just crashes.Version: 2.81
✓ Hard PassIt won't save my TV. I have to re-pair my device every single time I close the app. It also is so overloaded with ads that I can't complete any action without first closing out of an ad. It's free so sure show me ads, but not to the point that it severely impairs using the app. There are many similar apps out there that actually save your device and is usable even with ads. Pass on this one and find one of those..Version: 2.7
✓ No good for Apple TVIt can see my Apple TV box, but when I try to connect it just dies. I tried several times, and several times it either died, popped up with an advert, or advised me that I need to buy an option to control more than one TV. Deleted after 15 minutes of frustration..Version: 2.81
✓ Don’t Bother PurchasingIf all you want to do is turn your TV off from your phone, this app is great. If you want to anything else this app is certainly not worth downloading. The “OK” button will not select anything which makes the app almost totally useless. There is also a 5 dollar charge to get rid of the annoying pop up ads which the app sometimes forgets that you’ve purchased so they show up anyways..Version: 2.7
✓ Not good can’t even get into appTired this app for the remote for my Apple TV box. When downloaded it let me chose my Apple TV, but I could t use half the features like switching on and off without paying money to upgrade it. I paid £5.99 to be able to use that feature and then it froze. When I closed it down and went back in to it, every time I touch my Apple TV as the device to pair with it kicks me out the app. Not happy at all.Version: 2.81
✓ RidiculousI had the premium features, now they created a new tier for customizations with features that I already had with the previous premium version!.Version: 2.8
✓ IOS app works, Apple Watch app not so muchSo it’s my fault for not reading the reviews before I went and purchased the premium pack with the expectation that I would be able to use the Apple Watch version. Unfortunately the Apple Watch version does not launch so I spent money on a broken product....Version: 2.81
✓ REFUND PLEASE!!!This app is a joke. It doesn’t work at all. I paid for the premium because it had the apps I wanted. That was pointless because it doesn’t even detect the devices I have (fire stick and Apple TV) and when it does and I choose it, it crashes. In theory, it would have been great. In reality it’s a flop. Please issue a refund ASAP. Thank you..Version: 2.81
✓ Doesn’t work on Apple Watch after paying the £5.99Purchased for the explicit purpose of using on my Apple Watch, purchased the £5.99 add on and it won’t open. I have just bought a new Apple Watch SE so software and compatibility should be fine..Version: 2.81
✓ IWatch Option Doesn’t WorkPaid $5.99 for the app just to find out it doesn’t work. Downloaded the app hopefully I can use my new iWatch to control the Apple TV with the help of this app and it doesn’t work at all. Don’t buy this app. Doesn’t work either with the watch or the Apple TV. Completely useless..Version: 2.81
✓ IPhone app is great but Watch app just crashes when openingPlease can the Watch app be fixed, it’s one of the reasons I bought the app. I have the latest version of both apps, removed and installed again but still no luck. Any help would be appreciated..Version: 2.81
✓ Paid $8 Would not pick up my smart lg tvWon’t pick up my smart lg.Version: 2.7
✓ I hate itIt won’t work at all and I tried to connect it with my watch it won’t do anything don’t get it it’s a waist of your time.Version: 2.81
✓ Disconnected several times on apple watchThis is a great app but it disconnects from tv every times , please fix it to have consistent connection to the tv , i will buy it when it’s bugs fix..Version: 2.3
✓ DisappointedSurprisingly the first of about 10 apps to actually connect to my TV but could only adjust the volume so it’s pretty useless. Hope it works better for you.Version: 2.7
✓ TerribleThere are free applications that control your TV through your iPad or iPhone, I specifically purchased this app because it said it would work on my watch… It does not. I emailed their customer support asking if the application would be updated, and despite a response that they had received my question, nothing has been done. Now the app is telling me I need to purchase the premium version… Which I already did when I first downloaded the app, I had to restore my purchases, but when selecting haptic feedback for my watch, it keeps returning me to a page saying I need to purchase the premium version. An absolute headache with absolutely no benefit, I am going back to the free LG app to control my TV from my phone..Version: 2.81
✓ Doen't work anymore on apple watchSubmit a case 9 days ago without answer Otherwise works..Version: 2.81
✓ Apple watch app not working at allApple watch app is only an image!!.Version: 1.0
✓ AwfulDoesn’t work majority of the time. Better off buying a remote..Version: 2.93
✓ Doesn’t work with Apple WatchDon’t bother to buy the premium version if you think it would then magically make your app work on the Apple Watch. It’s really just a slide show of screenshots. None of the buttons work. Very disappointing to say the least..Version: 2.7
✓ RubbishLG smart Tv later than 2012, bought premium and still not working. App does not recognise my tv. Waste of my money. Want money back. Completely useless. If I could give no stars I would..Version: 2.5
✓ Way too many adsHaving ads show for every 5 click is annoying. As a first time customer i was not able to use the app for 5 minutes, every 5th click shows a full screen ad, and the close ad appears after 5 seconds. I feel like the lesser ads would have let me use the app more and later would have purchased ad free version. This experience was like “you go to buy ad free” else u wont be able to use..Version: 2.81
✓ Bad App!Had to buy pro version to get access to the features that I wanted but found the pro version to be mostly broken. OK button doesn’t work on Apple Watch most of the time ( does nothing or taps on the wrong item). There is no trackpad on watch app. On iPhone the keyboard comes up for searches but does nothing when you tap on the keys. Not sure how this buggy app got approved for production use..Version: 2.7
✓ Doesn’t really work (for me)I wanted to get this app because it looked like it worked and I can never find the normal remote cause I keep on loosing it, and when I tried to use the volume buttons, they wouldn’t work, same with the power button. I think this is because I don’t have cable set up but also the app connected to my Xbox (which is what I wanted it to connect to) and I pointed the top/front of my iPad at the tv and the Xbox and it still wouldn’t work! Every time I would try to use the power button it would say that my tv doesn’t have the “wake up” feature, so I don’t know what that means cause I’ve never had a wake up feature before mentioned on my tv. So this app doesn’t really work for me, and I personally think that it’s because I don’t have cable, but it connected to my Xbox which is connected to my tv instead of cable..Version: 2.7
✓ Paid for premiumCan’t turn the tv on from the app. So glitchy. Waste of $12.Version: 2.9
✓ Updated app now I have to pay more to use itI originally bought the app to get rid of ads now the app updated and I have to pay to use the trackpad and even just to select apps on the TV. All it is good for is changing the input. I do like the new feature allowing me to turn the tv on but not worth paying the additional amount just to have a useable app. Switching apps now.Version: 2.8
✓ To many paid plans/watch app didn’t workEven after paying £6 you find half the app requires a different app purchase. Half the features split between two. Mainly got for the Watch app which failed to open. Refund requested..Version: 2.81
✓ UnusableBought the premium version and it was just too buggy. Keeps disconnecting with the TV, touchpad is lagging and tapping doesn’t work, text input doesn’t work, and a host of other problems. Getting a refund from Apple right now..Version: 2.7
✓ This isn’t rightWith the new version, you removed some festures and put them as paied feature to make more money. Thanks guy.Version: 2.8
✓ Cjg1977@Every time I press enter it picks up a different button and doesn’t play what I request.Version: 2.7
✓ Very disappointedPaid for a lifetime subscription and went through the installation. An hour later I opened the app and nothing is working. Please advise how I can get a refund!.Version: 2.93
✓ Not GreatUnfortunately this premium version of the tv remote app was a complete waste of money. Let’s hope that an upgrade will rectify this?.Version: 2.81
✓ Apple Watch problemsWorks perfectly fine on my phone but I only paid for the premium so I could get it to work on my Apple Watch. Not only does it not work but it won’t even start the application on the watch. Looking for help??!!.Version: 2.81
✓ Select button doesn’t workThey just updated it to make it inoperable. Before, the select/center button on the directional pad didn’t work. But the trackpad feature worked pretty alright, so that was the work around. Post-update, the trackpad is a paid feature, as is completely mundane buttons. Example, the Netflix button is now a paid feature. Thanks. 10/10 improvements on the update. This is sarcasm..Version: 2.8
✓ DOES NOT WORKPurchased premium upgrade but does not work. Premium features still not available. Happy to pay if it works, otherwise need refund..Version: 2.6
✓ The worst app everWhy do we need to get the premium pack it is so annoying.Version: 2.93
✓ Doesn't workDoesn't work or do anything except connect to Tv.Version: 1.0
✓ Unusable without premiumThe ads are made so they pop up, filling the screen, just as your about to click (i.e. When you're rewinding and want to play it) meaning you have to pay for premium. Funny thing is however, if it was paid and without ads, people would probably pay for it and it would be worth it since it does have a good UX, but due to the shoddy practices used, (like obscuring the price, by listing it as free when it absolutely is not) there is no way I'm gonna give it a good review or support the dev by paying for the premium..Version: 2.5
✓ Not workingBought the premium upgrade to control tv with Apple Watch S6, phone app works fine but watch app will not open without crashing immediately. £6 wasted.Version: 2.81
✓ KeyboardI downloaded the app so I wouldn’t have to type one letter at a time with my tv remote and after buying the app the keyboard doesn’t even work !!! Completely dissatisfied with the app because I only downloaded it for this reason and everything else was pretty much an added perk. Do not download until bug is fixed! Just wasted 5 dollars on it not to work. 🤬🤬🤬.Version: 2.5
✓ Stupid way to do Advertizing. Every click is followed by a commercialStupid way to do Advertizing. Every click is followed by a commercial.Version: 2.7
✓ Great on iPhone, Useless on Apple WatchOnce you’re happy to pay for the full version (which I was) the app works perfectly on my tv. However, I bought the app primarily to be able to use with my Apple Watch. I have a series 3 and despite buying the full version of the app, making sure I have the most updated versions of the app, reinstalling and resetting both phone and watch - nothing. Massively irritating considering the full upgrade costs £9.99. I’d appreciate a refund or advice on how to fix ASAP. I even emailed the tech support through the app a few weeks ago and have heard nothing back..Version: 2.81
✓ Very mediocreSucks. Won’t stay connected.Version: 2.7
✓ Not value for moneyWhat a waste of money.Version: 2.81
✓ Disappointed with appLike other reviews, I would be looking elsewhere. My two gripes are trying to access regular TV features, and the main reason I purchased (and have quickly cancelled) is trying to change the HDMI input. The button doesn’t work. Disappointed in this app it had potential..Version: 2.94
✓ Stopped working!Paid for my subscription and after 3 days the app no longer connects to my tv! Disconnected WiFi, reset phone and tv and still no luck! Absolute con!.Version: 2.92
✓ What going on with this appI jus installed it an for I’ll give it a chance an paid, an truly, it doesn’t work on my iwatch once it’s installed an well over half the fecture done work, an bare this in mind I paid, I should really ask for my money back, so for I think respectability I I’m gonna give 2 stars when it should be 1 until it’s sorted.Version: 2.7
✓ Don’t buyBiggest waste of time and money ever. The premium makes absolutely no difference whatsoever and the whole app is just useless and pointless, save your cash..Version: 2.5
✓ Bought for one reason. But it doesn’t workI paid full price for the upgrade so I could use it on my watch. But it doesn’t work. App works great on my iPhone. But on a current fully updated watch, it immediately crashes. You need to either fix this or stop saying it works on the watch. I should have read reviews from over a year ago saying it didn’t work..Version: 2.81
✓ Half way thereWorks immaculately on the phone but just crashes on launch instantly on the latest watch software which is why i initially purchased the full version.Version: 2.81
✓ Apple watch not workingApple watch not working at all it's just a picture not happy.Version: 1.0
✓ Absolutely uselessI would have given this app 0 stars if I could..Version: 2.7
✓ Remote doesn’t work on NetflixThe app is actually better than the stock LG App in some ways because it can turn the TV on and off and connects automatically, but it is not worth the $$ I paid because it does not work with certain key apps on my LG OLED C8, mainly it does not work with Netflix which is crucial. Please update!!!.Version: 2.7
✓ So badI downloaded this app because the tv remote was lost. When I downloaded this app, it was really useful however the ok button doesn’t even work.Version: 2.7
✓ Not user friendlyHow to complicated things I just want to be able to use my ipad keyboard to search. LG cannot give us an apps that works without paying. Useless I will work my apple tv and my Ipad instead.Version: 2.1
✓ App upgrade doesn't workDon't upgrade. It charges you but doesn't get rid of ads and clicking restore purchase says you've already successfully purchased this but nothing changes. I hard reset my phone and still it persists..Version: 2.6
✓ The new update is Absolutely horribleThis update was absolutely the worst ever and ruin the whole thing doesn’t work right and is more complicated to figure out and I absolutely can’t stand it so I’m not gonna get this anymore I’ll find a better one worked good and tell you did the update.Version: 2.9
✓ App on Apple Watch doesn’t workGot this app as wanted to control tv via my Apple Watch. Realised needed to pay for in app purchase to use Apple Watch app. Paid the £9.99 and downloaded Apple Watch app only for it to instantly crash when I open it. Emailed their support and no response. Waste of money :( Will try to seek refund from Apple..Version: 2.81
✓ VERY POORReally want to get a full refund, Tried everything, bought the Premium and still isn’t working just the volume button, won’t even connect to my apple watch, Really disappointed.Version: 2.81
✓ Worst app everBetween every press there’s an add.Version: 2.94
✓ Only does basic thingsPurchased for 8 bucks trying to get info button to ensure streaming was 4K. Didn’t work..Version: 2.7
✓ Not sstisfy at all!Touche ok marche pas. Meme demandez de l’aide ne marche pas!!.Version: 2.7
✓ Love this app…for the most partI really love this app because I’m physically disabled, so I can’t really pick up and use a regular TV remote. The app makes me a lot more independent. With that being said, I do have a few requests/problems. First, when I go to turn my TV on, half of the time it doesn’t work which is why I still have my Apple TV which turns on my TV when I turn it on. Second, with the last update, to change the volume you have to tap the button over and over again instead of just holding it. And finally, you can’t use the app with your device in the horizontal position. Over all, I really love this app, but the first problem that I talked about is what’s holding me back from giving it 4 or 5 stars..Version: 2.9
✓ NEW UPDATE MAKES YOU PAYI purchased this app months ago and was using it for its track pad feature on my smart tv. It allowed me to use the trackpad to quickly select a title and a keyboard to easily search for movies/shows I wanted to watch. THE NEW UPDATE makes all of these features PREMIUM so this remote is now useless!! Very frustrated because I already paid for premium with the old version to use these features. Now it’s useless to me unless I PAY AGAIN! There are bugs with the most basic features now, can’t use the middle button as enter and the contact us email comes back undeliverable. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Download LG TV PLUS. It free and allows.Version: 2.8
✓ Keeps on disconnectingI purchased the premium version, after some time it started to disconnect , it asks me to pair every time I turn on my TV and even when Tv is on and connected if not used for a while it will disconnect and will ask to pair again . Really annoying , waste of money . I would not recommend this to anyone , better use alternative free versions ..Version: 2.81
✓ Apple Watch appI have purchased the full version of TV remote for apple. It works well from my iPhone X but does not open on my Apple Watch UE. The icon is on the screen but in selecting it nothing opens. Is there something I need to do to get this to work on my watch. Thanks.Version: 2.81
✓ Works, mostly...It's quite the brilliant app, but has a few drawbacks unfortunately. Firstly the middle button on the "cross" control doesn't work at all on my LG tv. The app installs on my Apple Watch 2nd series, but will not start. Absolute shame, as this app is the closest to perfection out of any of the ones out there....Version: 2.81
✓ Doesn’t workNot good.Version: 2.7
✓ Randomly Stopped workingI bought the upgrade for 9.99. It stops working sporadically by not allowing me to turn on my tv, when I open the app now today it’s not working at all, just crashes when I open it and select to turn my tv on. Not happy spending so much money on this for it to stop working..Version: 2.81
✓ Money back needed! Does not work!!!Does not work! Need refund now!.Version: 2.7
✓ The worstActually does nothing. Bought premium and still did nothing. Actually the worst. Do not buy.Version: 2.81
✓ Ruined by greedAbsolutely useless unless you’re prepared to gamble £7-£10 on it. Pairs with the TV then anything you try to do is locked by the premium version. I could literally move the volume up or down and that was it, everything else was locked. So I’ve no way of knowing if the features actually work or not before deciding if I want to buy. Should at least be a fully operational 3 day trial with everything the premium gives before the need to buy to test the software out. Guess that shows how confident the developers are in their app actually working if they are petrified of allowing customers to test before handing money over. Speaks for itself....Version: 2.81
✓ Only the volume works.I can open settings, and change the volume. That is all. Once settings are opened none of the directional buttons work to allow me to change to say HDMI from tv or vice versa. Poor app..Version: 1.0
✓ Love having to pay more for something I already hadThe new update is dumb. It looks pretty, but having to pay extra to be able to just click on Disney+ is BS. Why should I have to shell out extra money for features I already had preupdate. Nope, not doing it. I’ll go the long way before playing into your games..disappointing..Version: 2.8
✓ Terrible use of ads, watch app doesn’t workThe ads in this app are the worst I have every seen in any app. Something as simple as changing volume will take you out of the app to an ad making it useless. The watch app also closes as soon as you open it..Version: 2.81
✓ Watch app doesn’t workJust crashes, that and having to discover and add my tv every time the app is opened.Version: 2.81
✓ Paid for premium and still getting annoying adds..Could you fix it?.Version: 2.7
✓ Doesn’t workIt’s not an actual remote it’s just a picture of one.Version: 2.81
✓ DodgeyOnly the volume buttons worked occasionally would not recommend I will be getting a refund.Version: 2.81
✓ Works well. Too many addsWhilst the app works well, the amount of adverts that pop up make me not want to use it..Version: 2.81
✓ Terrible App. needs to connect each time it is usedTakes way too long to connect Pretty useless if you want to use to turn on TV especially through Alexa. App has to connect each time it is opened rather than being connected when phone is on home WiFi. Waste of money..Version: 2.7
✓ Unusable, even with Premium upgradeThe buttons on the iphone app and the watch app don’t match with what is on screen. The okay button on the Apple Watch doesn’t work at all so you can’t play or select anything. NowTV button exits all programmes and takes you to the TV screen saver/wallpaper screen, the Prime button opens Netflix, the Netflix button opens Netflix. Absolute waste of £4.99!.Version: 2.7
✓ Don’t waste your time, bandwidth or money!I downloaded this app accidentally as I thought it was the official LG Remote app. Also purchased the ad free version before I realized it was not LG’s app. I suppose it would have been fine if the app worked but I can’t even perform basic functions like access my tv settings with this app. Do yourself a favor and get the free LG app if you have an LG tv..Version: 2.7
✓ Was better before they updated itPaid for this app and had had full use of all of the features of it! They decided to update it and take away features I had already paid for! And now they want charge additional amount to unlock those same features that I had already paid for. Please don’t support businesses that do these kinds of things. It’s very crooked and in my opinion, larceny..Version: 2.8
✓ PoorAdd after add is pushed through, very limited functionality and wants you to upgrade to another version.Version: 2.81
✓ BadWont connect to the wifi.Version: 2.7
✓ 000It's look like this scum when you press the volume key down you will receive app to watch everything you have to pay money for control.Version: 2.81
✓ So many adds it ruins itWaste of time. Ads interrupt every time you try and use it. Ruins it..Version: 2.93
✓ Rubbish if you want to use it with NetflixCan’t use it with Netflix app on tv , won’t recognize ok button . Although app seems to be pretty good ..Version: 2.81
✓ Would be great if updated more regularlyThis app has some great features such as Siri shortcuts, and an intuitive interface, but unfortunately it isn’t updated regularly enough to be a stable app. If you are getting this app for its Apple Watch app, don’t bother because it is completely broken. Sadly this app is too unreliable to be reviewed well..Version: 2.81
✓ Premium Upgrade not workingBought the premium upgrade and it doesn't register it. I still get the request to purchase the upgrade trying to use touch pad, or launch apps or anything else. I also get ads anyway. Emailed developer and he said uninstall and reinstall, done that twice to no avail. Not sure what the problem it, please assist..Version: 2.6
✓ Bad apps everNot good at all.Version: 2.1
✓ Not GreatStill needs lots of work. Glitchy & has a lag. I purchased the add-on, which was a poor choice. I would like a refund on this..Version: 2.3
✓ Does nothingLiterally does nothing on Apple Watch. Every single thing you click says “Please upgrade to premium”. And I mean every single little thing that could possibly be clicked. Even AFTER upgrading to premium and power cycling both devices, the Apple Watch app just tells you to upgrade to premium after every single button press. Works acceptably on phone, it’s utterly useless on Apple Watch..Version: 2.93
✓ Poor ap for freesat tvAs I watch tv on freesat box wanted an easier remote to use the web catch up etc. This does not work as it controls the television only if box is turned on not for when your television is used as a monitor for wi fi , Internet catch up etc ..Version: 2.7
✓ Terrible app and doesn’t do what is says it canDo not get this app! Says it will work with Apple Watch but does not. I have the latest version of the app and an Apple Watch Series 6. I also purchased the full premium version as they state it is needed to get it to work on the app. The app does not open on the watch which was the entire reason for me getting it. I have tried to contact them about it but they have not responded to any of my emails despite using the correct links provided within the app and under app support from the Apple store. Would give 0 stars if possible. Save your time and do not get this app!.Version: 2.81
✓ Doesn’t workHorrible app...spent the top dollar to get full access yet doesn’t work on Apple TV or Cable box. Apple Watch app just crashes immediate (SE watch). Fix this app or stop taking money!!!.Version: 2.81
✓ Absolute trashWaaaaaaayyyyy too many adds. Every 5 clicks on this app makes a new ad pop up. Save your time and your sanity and avoid this one.Version: 2.8
✓ Can’t use the app without premiumTrying to hide the real price of the app behind a fake free app gets you a one star review sorry….Version: 2.92
✓ This app works fine on iPhone 📱 but...The main reason I bought this app is because it’s available on Apple Watch ⌚️ I want to be able to control my tv when my remote or phone not next to me and I always have my watch on. When I downloaded the app on my watch, it kept saying “ to use this app on Apple Watch ⌚️ the iPhone 📱 app needs to be installed” and it’s installed both on my iPhone and Apple Watch ⌚️ I’ve done everything to fix this problem. I deleted the app both on my watch and iPhone and I installed it again but no use. I’ve also emailed the developer but they ignored me nicely. Ladies and gentlemen this is story of how they nicked my money. Long story short, don’t waste your money. There’s another LG tv app and it’s free..Version: 2.7
✓ Avoid this garbage! Removes functionality and makes them paid only. Do not upgrade your old app!Common features are now locked by a pay-wall after updating the all where they were once working before. Obnoxious and full of spammy ads. Avoid this..Version: 2.8
✓ Can't connect.Takes forever to load..Version: 1.0
✓ Rubbish appWaste of money, I paid for full version every time I open the app it keeps dropping out and the Apple Watch app doesn't work at all. I want my money back.Version: 1.0
✓ AdsI love the app, it helps a lot when i loose my remote but the amount of ads there are after every button i press is very annoying..Version: 2.81
✓ Helpful when you lose your remoteIt has adds and you need to be premium to do certain things, but overall it’s helpful when you lose your remote.Version: 2.7
✓ Watch view not workingNice on the phone, but doesn’t work the the watch. That primary reason I purchased it. I’ve contacted the developer multiple times but have been ignored..Version: 2.81
✓ Love the iOS App, but watchOS doesn’t load,...Downloaded the iOS and found it very responsive in comparison to the LG official app. I purchased the premium upgrade to make sure all the features I might need were available and the watchOS doesn’t load. Acts like it’s opening and returns me to the list of watch apps. Disappointing l, especially since I just spent $10 for the premium version. 🤦♂️.Version: 2.81
✓ Remote not control feature that it promisedThe remote app was to have direct access to smart features then after purchasing it directs you to buy another level of functions even though you purchase the app. Bate and switch.... hmmm Some business practices are just disguised as theft..Version: 2.81
✓ Only ads impossible to useOnly ads impossible to use.Version: 2.0
✓ Serious problemsEdit:. Oh no! This app is having serious trouble again. The Apple Watch feature is not connecting for me, even after an uninstall/reinstall process. I just got a response on April 17th to an email I sent on February 3rd, and the app hasn't been updated in months. Please get the app going right and I'll give back some stars, but it takes more effort!.Version: 2.5
✓ Not goodI downloaded this remote app and it doesn’t work as good as the other reviews say. It won’t let me use the ON/OFF button and the SELECT button unless I upgrade.Version: 2.81
✓ Worked for one click.Paid for the premium pack, got the tv to Netflix screen and then no buttons worked at all. Waste of money..Version: 2.7
✓ Adds keep popping up after purchaseApp Store adds keep popping up after purchase , it’s really annoying when you use the volume control.Version: 2.81
✓ It working with apple shortcutBefore I try to make an apple shortcut it works well After I set the shortcut the app become useless and not reacting Waist of money.Version: 2.91
✓ Bad updateLoved it until now, hate it since the past few weeks. There was an update and now anytime I pick my screen I must pair it again. Renders it completely and utterly useless..Version: 2.91
✓ Does not workDoes not work.Version: 2.81
✓ Works but lags badlyIt works with my LG TV on my iPhone and Apple Watch but response time is very laggy. I would have to tap several times for the buttons to work. Hope the developer can fix this issue..Version: 2.94
✓ Full screen ads after every 3rd button press?Really frustrating to try and evaluate, I get the same full screen ad for a roofing business every 2-3 button presses. Try to bump the volume up a bit and you have to dismiss the ad. But it does work, and even powers off the TV which LG's app doesn’t. Looks pretty polished but the response from the TV lags by around 0.3 seconds....Version: 2.81
✓ A waste of spaceDon't bother with this app. The watch app doesn't do a thing. The phone app connects, but doesn't do anything once connected. Take your app down off the store and rebuild it..Version: 1.0
✓ Got ripped off!!I’ve never written a review before, but this app is sooooo terrible that I needed to. I control most of my devices (fire TVs, Xbox’s, etc.) with my phone and tablet as I hate trying to locate the remotes that my kids and wife loose. I got this app and saw that with the premium you can get rid of the irritating adds that keep popping up while you try to use the app. It was the worst 5 dollars I’ve ever spent. 98% of the time it doesn’t recognize that I have premium so it keeps popping up adds, it won’t let me turn my tv on (even though it says it’s supported), I can’t use the track pad and all of the other features that you’re suppose to be able to do with the premium package. Do not waste your 5 dollars for the premium. Their is virtually no difference..Version: 2.6
✓ Crashes on apple watchDownloaded to use on apple watch. It works fine on iphone but crashes immediately on Apple Watch. Also large number of ads on free version.Version: 2.81
✓ Terrible! Don’t waste your money! Worked ok for a while, then errors galore!This app worked for what I needed, but after 2-3 weeks it started erroring out, needing to be paired over and over and the haptics going off for no reason. I reset the app and tv, no luck… always goes back to the pairing error. I purchased a year subscription after it worked well initially, now it’s unusable! Rip-off!.Version: 2.94
✓ Very buggyIntermittently stops working. Paid for premium no difference, almost as if when ads normally play the app stops working. Better off buying a second remote..Version: 2.81
✓ Useless, X to close ads unclickableAn ad popped up once I had my TV connected and the X button to close it was in the same place as my battery indicator so it was not clickable making the app unusable. Unusable apps get one star from me. If they’d just charged for the app I’d probably be happy but I can’t even get that far so it’s useless..Version: 2.81
✓ Apple Watch series 3 or 5 does not workThis app works ok through phone. I purchased the advanced version to be able to use watch as well but every time I start watch app it crashes. I am using a series 5 Apple Watch. Then after many failed attempts I tried my wife’s Apple Watch and it still would not work. So if anything stay with the free version don’t waste money on paid version..Version: 2.81
✓ CheatingWhen i used trial version it worked all the time but when i purchased and then it started to freeze the functionality til now. whatta heck ! dont loose your money for this freak..Version: 2.81
✓ Apple Watch issuesAfter an update, I’ve been unable to use the app on my watch. Simply doesn’t open. So much for paying a premium which they reduced my functionality after introducing another premium. They’ve also removed the ability to contact them via the app..... Do not trust QuanticApps.Version: 2.81
✓ Useless sh$t!!!Adds everywhere. You can do literally nothing with this remote. Pushing every button ends with ad of purchasing premium access..Version: 2.91
✓ Not ready for Prime TimeI can’t use the app without it barfing up full screen ads every five or six clicks. This is not in any way useful or even reasonable. I spent nearly $9000 on this 75" OLED TV, and I must now pay $5 for an upgrade — which might continue to interrupt the customer with unhelpful, disruptive, unwanted adds. No. Thanks..Version: 2.7
✓ 👎Bought this app and wouldn’t let us do anything but click on Netflix and wouldn’t even let us enter Netflix wouldn’t recommend.Version: 2.81
✓ DO NOT BUY!!!!!!After upgrading to premium for £9.99 the app still does not work with Apple Watch . . . . I’ve emailed the company but have had no response. . . . . Poor!!!!.Version: 2.81
✓ Useless to buy PremiumThought I'd try the premium subscription so I could do more than change the volume. But nope! I still couldn't change a channel or see the guide. Don't bother. Only good to control the volume..Version: 2.92
