Please Fix!!!
Cjs_2019

This app worked fine up until March 28. Now it’s an awful TV guide and the remote feature has disappeared! :(


2nd the motion: update killed it
jwgeorgen

App no longer functions. I cannot change rooms/locations, makes the app unusable.


Remote turned into a TV guide
Fuju0145

The most recent upgrade removed all remote functions and replaced them with a TV guide. Now I have three paperweights instead of three universal remotes.


Please re-add remote function
scb161

I wish I could give this version less than a one star. The last version was great, but now that it will no longer support the IR smart remote I no longer have a need to use this app and I am out the money for the IR unit. I have a guide built in to my tv so why would I open an app to view a guide? Dumb...


Bring the remote back
Amy joy 916

Please bring the remote back. That was the purpose of this app.


Update prevents from connecting to device
mjsnarr

Worked great before the update now I can’t connect by Bluetooth. I was able to connect using firmware updated app and install the latest firmware but that still did not help. Please make the old app available until this can be fixed.


Make It A Remote Again
Neezus S

I don't normally write reviews, but I had to in this case to say somerhing: NOBODY uses this app primarily for the TV guide, it doesn't matter if you rename it and make the guide the homescreen. Please make the remote the initial screen again, this app was working flawlessly before this update but now you've made using my remote more difficult.


Update killed the remote

App is garbage

Delete this app...garbage


WTH?
kimstrain5

What in the heck is going on? I no longer have access to an actual REMOTE CONTROL since you’ve made these horrible changes. What’s the point now of using this service?
