User Reviews for Remote Control for Sony TVs

Works well if it can connect to the TV

This app works for my X900F. However after a while it would stop connecting to the TV. I had to power on the TV manually once for it to find it, then this would work for a while. One improvement I’ll suggest: put Back and Home buttons on the first control page as well, so I don’t need to constantly switching pages.

Unusable without their subscription

Apparently the money they got from the ads wasn’t enough. Now most of the functions are disabled unless you pay their ransom of $20/year. This application won’t dramatically change in one year’s time, so why the subscription? Greed. Subscriptions make sense for applications that change over time. This one will not. Deleted.

Paid, it works, has one annoying flaw

Let me start by saying that all of the complaints about the ads on the free version should be immediately dismissed. Someone spent their time and resources developing this app and you should be thankful they even have a free version. Instead of being an entitled brat that expects a free handout, how about you pony up FIVE DOLLARS and support the developer? This will accomplish a few things: 1. It will incentivize the developer to improve the app2. You won’t see ads3. You’re supporting a small business4. Maybe, just maybe, you’ll start approaching life with an “earn it” mentality and actually make something of yourselfAnywho, all sermons aside, the app works well. I experience some lag every once in a while. This isn’t a huge deal since I mainly use the app when I’m holding my child and can’t grab the actual remote. For $5, this is a value-add that I really appreciate.

APP works great! Need to manually turn on the TV first though.

Pay the few bucks for the app. In a perfect world the app would only be available for purchase. I really don’t like when the cheaper apps like this one have a free version. It makes it seem like a worse app than it is. It really works well. I only wish iPhone had the IR sensor so they could power on my device as well. Perhaps have an option to buy one for a cheap price with the purchase of the app. Anyway I’m happy with it.

Terrible!

This app works beautifully the first day or so I had it. Then, when I paid $5 to remove ads the app ceased to function at all. Now, whenever I open it I only get a screen with a “send feedback” button. Tried deleting and reinstalling multiple times as well as rebooting my phone. Nothing helps. Being as it was the only thing I can do in the app, I utilized the Send Feedback button to email the creator and ask what the deal was. Got no response. This is shameful and I’d like my $5 back

The Perfect App

Sony TV with AppleTV and want to control it from your phone in one place? This is the app without 1,000 different gimmicks. It does everything I want but one thing which is not remotely a showstopper, the 15s forward/back buttons. Other than that I find this a one stop app to do everything I want with my Sony TV with AppleTV.To get on my soapbox for a moment, I agree with another review I read. This person built this app with their own blood, sweat, and tears. Nothing in life is free so either deal with the ads or buy the app. Stop whining that they should spend their time to make something free for you to use.

Sony remote “wow”

Worth the price, it is way better than the factory remote. Allows one to do the functions quickly. Cost of course is for the ad free version. Which is why I paid for this version. Most apps are not worth paying for.

Too many ads

Let’s first say that it’s awesome this app exists. My dog chewed up my tv remote and while I wait for a new one to arrive I can use this app which is awesome, however, I can’t press a single button without an ad playing. These ads mean that fast forward happens and doesn’t stop until I can repress a button once the ads are done or food is cooking and I can’t pause the show for at least 30 seconds because an ad has to play. It’s great that this app exists for a short term fix but I also can’t wait to not have to use it.

This app is a lifesaver!

The remote sensor went out on nearly brand new TV. I couldn’t even turn my tv on and off. I tried other remote control apps but they were clunky and didn’t work well. This one is seamless, fast, and gives me access to everything a traditional remote would.

Works Very Well with my Sony Bravia

The app works well with my sony bravia tv. There are some ads showing now then but it’s totally tolerable or you can remove them by purchasing the app. Thanks to the developer for this useful app.
