YES! For Gesture feature!!
MoneyMakin'P
All the naysayers about the gesture feature...why bother having a remote on your phone? The gesture feature works well & the ability to now switch BETWEEN the old fashioned button mode & the gesture mode is great & should appease you. I manually had to go through and Get Content Info for a few of my movies...& that brings me to the keyboard feature. It's awesome. Please fix the typing issue. Any special characters or spaces results in "20%" between the words. While it seems to still search & find the videos just fine, it is still a frustrating bug. All in all a great app considering how it started. I will say that the volume is a bit twitchy. If I turn it all the way down the sound is off. Anywhere in between it seems to stay the same. Doesn't really bother me, but you guys should look into it just the same. You should add the ability to swipe through your selections on your phone, rather than having to be watching the tv & selecting it that way. I'd like to be able to select a film for my child without having to view the tv. Almost like mirroring the image from your tv to the smartphone. I'd be happy with this. No video playback needed. Make it happen and this app would be beyond measure!
Awesome, until it stopped functioning

This worked great for about a month. Then, some icons disappeared on the remote, then it stopped being able to sync with our device. :(
It used to work, but doesn't now...

For some reason unknown to me the app can't find my WD Media player... It searches endlessly to no avail... Please update this app, as I use it all the time vs the clunky controller! I have an iPhone 6 with the latest OS, and have deleted the app and reinstalled it several times.
Awesome but needs some improvement

It is a great app if you are lazy to get the remote, but it takes way too long to connect. Otherwise it's great!

Piece of junk won't connect! And why does Apple make me rewrite this review several times simply because a nickname is already taken?
Doesn't always connect

This is an awesome solution for our broken remote. However, it fails us most of the time since it doesn't always connect whenever we want it to. We always have to try it on different phones and hope that at least one would succeed.. Please do fix this issue as it will make the app perfect! :)
At last I have a keyboard

Using the remote that came with my WD TV Hub I never could get the keys to work as a keyboard so I could log on to app like Netflix. Now using this app I can and know longer need to carry a keyboard. Great app.
Useless without power button
