putul_thakur		 This app is herbal please don't don't don't download this app because this app doesn't open this App opens then give you some something to accept I accepted that but even when it's not working so for me it's waste of mobile data

Rafael Gorbea		 It will not replace a working remote but, it does the work while replacing the broken one. The buttons needs to be rearrange.

marc		 Awesome app, but purchase model is ridiculous. I can't pay you each month just so I can use configured TVs and STBs without ADs. I would buy your app long time ago already, but subscription model is only proper for VOD services or newspapers, where you get new stuff frequently. Consider changing the model to one time purchase and I will be your happy Customer. Thanks for a good app nevertheless.

A Google user		 Was looking for a remote for Airtel stb during lockdown as earlier one stopped working. This is working fine. One function is missing i.e. the favorite button. Kindly add this button in next update. Thanks.

A Google user		 DO NOT INSTALL! Read the Privacy Statement. It list what info they can gather about you if you agree, but it says, "...but not limited to" which means if you use this app you agree to allow them to use and sell ALL information on your phone!

A Google user		 I only use the Xfinity box for local n/w, so I just needed a simple app for times when the remote's not w/in reach. Installed, tried the preset, worked! Removed 1 star for overly-intrusive splash-screen.

A Google user		 Requires a phone equipped with an infrared emitter. Heck if I had that i wouldn't be here, I'd just use my old SURE app. Man I miss my Galaxy note 4. Currently using Note 8
