This is the only app that can work with no delay and available for full size remote. All the button work properly and doesn't have the ads come to disturb me. Thanks for your work.

I love it, it works for my old sony tv, but it required an IR in the phone. So I used my old note 3 and did the job.

I can give this app 4 stars because I found this as the only remote for external audio IR. It woud be much better if there is an option for STB of Airtel also.
