Works great but can't replace the remote. Even though TV is on standby mode, cant turn it on. Once its on, then you can use the app as a remote controller. Would b 5* if it can turn on my TV

This app can/will put the BRAVIA 4K Ultra HD HDR Professional Display in standby mode, however it cannot turn the panel display on again. Instead, the Netflix button will turn the panel display on, weird. The app cannot discern between a short button press or long button press. On the original IR remote (RMT-TB400U) long pressing the power button can access option to restart the Bravia display panel. Same with the OK button cannot use the long press feature.

works well for my Sony Android tv. it is easy to use, ads don't get much in the way at all. fairly good app if you lose your original remote. works better than the another app that wants you to pay a subscription for for Sony Bravia TV. I have to reconnect every time I open this app but it's pretty easy, just make sure you're on the same wifi as the tv and sometimes you have to manually type in the TVs Mac address

As stated by other reviews, way too many ads!!! Funny though as soon as I was able to make it work, it work like a charm. Ads galore make bring too much inconvenience. In fact, when accidentally click it on it, it redirected (using firefox browser) to some malware infested site😠 that's thankfully 😌 my ublock origins add-on intervene with its warning . Wish i was able to post a pic of it. If these idiots (coders/owners of this app)offer a purchased version adds-free, then would be worth it!

Unbearable amount of ads. There are constantly ads on main screen but in addition for that full screen ads pop up when you least expect that. It's unacceptable that when I close the app it starts full screen video ads. And these video ads can be closed after 10 sec or more

Loud full screen ads. Even when you exit then you need to watch full screen video ad. So when this app is open and you'll get phonecall then you can't even answer because fist youl'll need to wait for the video ads to stop. It's not possible to skip the ads

SONY BRAVIA KDL -42W808A. ❗Found bugs to fix: 1) When you are playing music, it doesn't show the current time where song is being played. 2) Sometimes you shake your phone to play music CD-disc that displays on phone(tablet), stops spinning. And vice versa. ❗Some bothering stuff: Song play/pause by shaking phone(tablet) is on by default. That's very inconvenient. Everytime, when music is played, you can by accident shake your phone, and it will pause/play song, even if you don't want to.

My remote busted up and I didnt think of looking online for an app, when I did, i found this! It worked fine initially and then stopped connecting altogether, re installed it twice thereafter and now working fine! I'm happy I can use my tv again! Thanks!!

I have impaired Vision... I would happily pay for ad-free version... These silly adverts, is very stressful for someone like me because I never know whether I'm clicking on the actual remote or some other app, that would cost me without realising I'm going to persevere with it for another month, but if the developers are unable to do the kind thing, and give vulnerable people like me the option to pay for an ad free version... Then I'll delete it.. The pop-ups are making me anxious 😢
