Basic help offered but, unrelated to specific problems I was having. I scanned for devices & picked up 1 out of 4. Volume button doesn't work. You need to have the direct tv remote next to u if u want to use volume control. Uninstalling

Kinda makes the app useless as there are a ton of remote apps in the market to do what is left over in this app once the playlist is no accessible.

I would have given more stars because everything works except the playlist. When I click on it, it says directv has disabled this feature from you devise. What can I do?

People saying it doesn't work need to realize both your box and your phone need to be connected to the internet via the same WiFi.

Half these morons haven't configured their home networks first and think this is an infrared remote. It's a network remote, configure that first.

Will not scan for any devices. Manually entered both HR DVR's and nothing. Help lacking for troubleshooting and web site, NO support whatsoever. App has potential if it scanned. Droid Razr 2.3.5

Just have to make sure that the device is logged in under the same main network. Will not work when logged in under guest or any other network than the main Direct TV network in your home.
