Ratings and reviews

mostly good as it has the same buttons and voice control as the regular remote. I like to have it in case the regular remote gets misplaced. however, its useless if the tv is off, because it cant connect to a tv that isnt connected. so not great as a replacement remote. youll have to search for the real one or go buy another one if you cant find your remote

when you tap the directional pad even once ever so slightly it will keep scrolling very fast through the other options either horizontally or vertically. eventually stopping nowhere near where you want. it's as if you held the button down instead of tapped it guiding it in the direction you wanted. and then if you try to get back to where you were at it does the same thing. I would say 70% of the time this happens the other 30% it actually works as an intended

It just doesn't make sense that the app made to connect to fire TVs specifically is the ONLY app I have that doesn't recognize my FIRE TV. I've hooked a Roku up and used the Roku app, I've gotten YouTube to stream EVERY SINGLE TIME I've asked it to, but??? Maybe for about fifteen minutes a day. Fix your connection software, you're one of the most profitable companies on the planet and everyone else figured it out so you obviously can.
