Using the ir thing with my galaxy S5 this is great
★★★★★Chizzy Joseph· Sep 20, 2026
I recommend this app. One hundred 💯 percent functional. It's compatible with almost all the TVs in the world. Brings out all the TV's remote button features. Just one test and the TV works. However, when it comes to Set-top boxes, it lacks compatibility. I recommend that they improve it on that aspect and add every other device that needs to be added. 👍
