2024-10-31 | Grace Donovan | Onn brand (Walmart) is not listed. Didn't work. | |
2024-01-14 | Nicki Ruiz | Trying to pair my remote with my soundbar, the app says to choose my sound bar model from "the list" but then doesn't give me a list to choose from. Garbage. | |
2023-10-17 | JJ W | Works great with my Poco phone to control my Vizio soundbar. Your phone needs to have an IR Blaster for it to work. So, if it doesn't work for you, it may be because of your phone and not the app. | |
2023-08-26 | Richard Dufault | Another scam. 4th remote I've tried and they all are scams. They just want your email. Then they say they can't help you or they say you need to buy this addon. Even though my phone remote works fine on legitimate apps | |
2023-04-09 | Fer Vázquez | Useless. Needs the soundbar to be on to find the right preset, which you can't do if your original remote doesn't work. | |
2022-10-05 | Younes Rahmouni | Lost my remote and this app saved me. Tbh the UI could look better but it does everything i need to so i cant complain and it worked right away after downloading it unlike so other apps. Overall very happy with it 5/5 | |
2022-05-09 | Aleesha Decc | It was a bit finicky with the screen buttons but when you could use the buttons everything worked like the actual remote. Was able to pair my sub to bar! | |
2022-03-23 | Atticus80 | Doesn't work. Just an ad app. Launched it and it wouldn't get past the first ad until I manually shut the app down and relaunched. Then it said it didn't have the model sound bar. No sound bar model was input. Avoid this app | |
2021-11-28 | Matt Bennett | First try... turned on my Polk Soundbar. I'm not sure if you tech nerds could add this feature but if so, people would pay! So... if the app had an "Active mode" the controller would be the (unlocked) screen. Hmm? Yep, just like flashlight apps | |
2021-10-04 | Jjp | I don't usually write reviews but this app is that bad. Tells me to pick my brand, immediately splashes me to some anime ad I can't click out of and if you try it tries to force you to download some app. I had to click out of the play store dload 4x and finally when I was able to escape it, it tells me I need an IR blaster. Seriously? Not only does this app not work as advertised, it's also invasive. No thanks |
