New version (5) is not functional, usable, nor reliable

Waste of time to down this version (5) of this program until they fix it. Old version worked great. Used it all the time without much fail. This version try’s to do it all you but fails miserably. Takes forever to find my units and when it finds them. It does not save them. Sometimes, I have to go and turn unit on for it to find it. Manual adding unit works, unless you close the app, then you have to manually add the back. What is the logic in this. I understand that there are people that my have a clue about what an IP address is, but to ruin a program that worked fine. I don’t get.
No longer works - wait it works, manual setup makes it work again

App worked flawlessly. The latest updates makes it useless. 3 Directv receivers in my house, all online. The app on my iPhone discovers 0. The app on my iPad Pro finds 1 and the remote has now been changed to resemble nothing close to my DirectV remote Thanks for the updates]. You should have left it alone. Useless now. Update: Never could find the settings link. Finally read a review. Go into your Settings> Find the app and select ‘allow manual setup’. Now set up your Directv receivers. Great. It works again.

DirectVR was a waste of time and money, I did go to the App settings and still could not find my receiver..
Now does not work on new IPhone XR
Rule---1
Can not find receivers , can’t add manual. Works perfect on my iPad so I know is working. Need fix or update for Xr!!!
Big Step Backwards

Used to work fabulous with only hardcoded ip addresses. Now it is terrible. Discovery doesn’t usually work. App forgets my hardcoded ip addresses. If the system is off and I try to add back a hard coded address, it doesn’t work. Because of all this, the app is worthless unless the directv Box is already turned on. This was a great alternative to DirecTV’s uselessly bloated app. Please put it back the way it was!
Update is flawed

Had used the previous version for over 5 years and worked flawlessly (over multiple networks in different locations). Now, when it actually connects to receivers it works great. If you manually enter ip addresses it will forget them (aggravating to have to enter all ip addresses every time I open the app) especially if you leave the network and get on another network (work vs home). It never “discovers” more than a couple of receivers, most of the time only one. I keep waiting for a fix because I used to love this app!
Do not bother

The lite version connected to my receiver fine, but this version does not. Pushing the help button takes you to a blank white screen.
