Five 🤩 works well with my JBL 250 soundbar, one little advert you can stop it when you want, well worth it!

Works appropriately with JBL sound bars

Great one. For my JBL I wasn't getting a remote. This app solved my problem.
★★★★★Hubert Gagnon· Sep 24, 2025

I downloaded this app and immediately asked via email that they help me cancel this subscription because they did not have the remote for my JBL sound bar. Once I sent the email, an automated response popped up and said "Someone will get back to you" basically to help me cancel immediately. I never heard back from anyone and just saw I was charged $16.99 for a remote that I cannot use. I truly expected someone to get back to me and help me follow through with this cancellation before free trial

60% of the functions work. The "remote" function is kinda hilarious. The overlay of button inputs over a greasy, dirty remote is top tier. Definitely wouldn't pay for this and while I support paying for a quality software, this release isn't really ready for ad supported funding. Did you know you can block ads on your home network by simply changing DNS settings on your router? Also, I question the decision to require location to connect to devices especially since it's using a network connection

Would give a negative stars if it was possible, get ready for ads and more ads! Too bad about that because they could have been a professional app developer and could become successful, but alas they have been wasting their time with ambush marketing and never noticed a solid business staring them in the face.

Waste of time, doesn't work for sound bar

Trust & Safety: The app requests a standard set of permissions common for remote-control apps (including location, network state, internet, Bluetooth, vibration, and foreground service) and references several ad/analytics libraries in its dev-features. It also requires TRANSMIT_IR for IR-based control. Users should review the requested permissions and privacy implications, especially given the use of ads/analytics and the IR transmission capability. Overall, there are no obviously dangerous permissions beyond typical remote-control app usage.
