Ratings and reviews

It disconnects too often, but reconnects pretty quickly, but slower than you want. This app works well but that hassle makes me want to search for me remote. And a lost remote is exactly why I need this app. It's not as good as the remote, but it's good. And I assume people in my position will be relatively satisfied by the results. It's just not as reactive or as instant as a remote.

The remote feature does not communicate well with TV. I push down twice, and it jumps down 10 times. It is very frustrating. The remote that came with my firestick disconnects and takes an insane amount of time to get it reconnected. No matter how close or far away. If I restart or change batteries. The remote is trash! Since the remote is trash, I can not even attempt to enjoy this app or review the app properly.

Trash app. Two stars only because it used to work flawlessly. A couple of months ago it began to get very buggy. The app wouldn't recognize my fire TV stick. If it did, it would struggle to connect. If it actually did connect, it would only stay connected for a few seconds. I've been forced to uninstall and reinstall this app countless times just to get it to work. If you lose your fire TV remote, throw away your fire stick and purchase a different streaming device.
