5-Star App all day works great I have one complaint I paid $40 for lifetime that's fine, but I'd definitely like to see this app Family Library Eligible, I think because I paid for the app my wife should be able to download it as well and use the premium without having to pay again other than that the app is flawless love it highly recommended

This app works great although the type to search on YouTube, Prime etc. does not work... Is this meant to be a feature? Not sure. Would be flawless otherwise.

Not sure how I became subscribed to your app. I cancelled can you please on your end cancel. Any requests for money from my account i don't require your service and would like my pending payment reversed

How can I cancel the free subscription?
β ββββMatt CΒ· Jul 3, 2026
You can buy a physical remote replacement for under $10. $40 for an app is a disgusting level of greed.
β ββββRyan MartinΒ· Jul 18, 2026
The remote for my TV quit working and this app showed up in the app store, so I downloaded it, and it required a $34 dollar purchase and went with it because there was a 3-day free trial period. What it left out was you have to click allow on your TV remote to get the app to work. So later the same day I am looking to cancel and can not find where to cancel it in the app. I set am email to thier support email address the same day to get a refund. Also, I am sure in a year it will auto-renew.
