One For All Setup

About this app

***Note: Starting Android 6.0, Android removed programmatic access to the device’s local hardware identifier for apps using the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. This update broke the app’s ability to pair with the remote. Our latest update addresses this problem.

The One For All Setup app is used to set up devices on the One For All Smart Control (URC 7980). The app uses Bluetooth Low Energy (also known as Bluetooth Smart) to communicate with the remote control, giving access to the full online database of over 7,000 brands and 335,000 individual models of Audio/Video devices. Devices can be set up by model search, function search or directly selecting the code. With the latest integration, use Virtual Agent to guide you through setting up your remote with helpful tips. The app also gives you access to the Remote Finder functionality, allowing you to locate your remote by simply pressing a button and listening for the beep.

Features:

• Search by brand, model, function or code
• Automatic setup on the One For All Smart Control
• Ensures compatibility with your Home Entertainment devices, now and in the future
• Use Virtual Agent to help you set up your remote
• Remote finder – locate your remote using your phone
• Requires a Bluetooth Smart capable phone

Ratings and reviews

Wow this app is poor! Constantly loses pairing to the remote, then needs to be paired again as if it's the first time. Extremely annoying. Not a single one of the codes suggested for my 4 devices worked. I got the remote working for each one by ploughing through the device codes published. And there's me thinking this is the 21st century! OFA would do well to look at the Logitech app used to setup their Harmony range of remotes - different class! The only reason I've given it 2 stars and not 1 is that it's useful to see exactly what code you've used for each device...when it's paired that is.

Possibly the worst app ever. Unclear, unstable, unreliable. I got there in the end but I'm as certain as I can be that it would have been quicker and easier to do it manually. Unbelievably bad. Save yourself a ton of frustration and use the paper instructions. You'll have to go manual if you need to 'teach' missing functions anyway.

Can't program macros through the app. In fact, can do very little through the app. The locate remote which would be useful is either disabled in current release or simply too hard to find. Very limited when compared to more expensive solutions, hoped 'activities' would be similar to Logitech devices but this is still a poor imitation. Won't place devices on necessary inputs for 'activities' just enables buttons for the right task. Could be brilliant, but isn't.
