Remote for Sony TV for Android
This app works GREAT for those times when you've lost the controller and can't find it (which in my house happens almost daily). But the constant ads make it undesirable for regular use. If they offered a paid version without ads and this would be a five star review!
It works even though it is a very basic version of the Sony remote. If you want all the features, look elsewhere. Unfortunately there are so many FULL screen ads getting in the way of the remote control (including ads constantly displayed at bottom of screen while using the remote) that it becomes infuriating.... LIFE IS TOO SHORT for this rubbish.
It found my TV, connected but did not do any controlling. No control worked at all. It's also impossible to use with the gazillion adverts appearing after every single button tap. It's simply frustrating!!
Works magnificently well but has very intrusive full screen ads everytime you open the app. And I mean everytime, wether you shut it down or leave it running in the background. Add a banner that is designed to appear over the bottom buttons of the remote... Too bad because it works incredibly well and even looks like the actual Sony remote.
Only bad thing are the ads. If your screen times out you have to wait for another add which is somtimes frustrating. The video adds with sound are by far the worst though. Wouldnt mind if they were muted. Somtimes wont detect the tv on my network, just takes a few trys..
Always lose my remote between the bed and the wall, when I get tired of looking I use this app. All functions work, the only thing that sucks is how annoying the ads are. Other than that, great app.
Tried multiple apps, this is the first one that worked. Was very easy to set up, and suits my purposes. It's riddled with ads, but since it's free that's to be expected. Thanks for not making me get out of bed to control my TV lol.
It works pretty well. For some reason it disconnects what my TV's off. Then I have to restart everything but other than that the perfect wireless controller
The app works great now that I figured out it was defaulting to the IR blaster. A quick start guide to help set it up would be nice for those who haven't gotten it working, but it required 0 setup for my TV and Phone. I just want an option to pay a couple bucks to remove the ads.
A remote that works perfectly on my Sony Bravia. Not every single function but more than enough. I'm impressed enough to write my first review for an app. Good job
New TV, new phone app doesn't work. Won't find the TV, and far to many adds in the app. Very disappointed
Stupid app with so many ads. Doesnt discover sony tv. Dont waste your time.
The app is great. However the ads drive you crazy.... And no option to pay for them to be removed. Less adds or give an option to remove them. The way it is now its just annoying.
Used this app 2yrs ago, it had NO ads, just a good remote.....downloaded it today, now it is infested with ads...open it - ads, touch a button - ads, there's even ads that stay on the bottom of the remote. ...sucs sucs sucs....
Can I use this app my galaxy grand prime? And without net the remote is that working? Also one thing without smart tv this app is working?
Dont waste ur time not detecting any tv
The remote actually looks awesome but.........adds pop up so often and at all the wrong times. Hit rewind with intent to replay what u just missed...here pops an add so in the time it took days to close it u reminded a whole hours worth and it does it every single time. Fast forward too. Basically this app only allows rewind and fast forward with intense struggle. Ull wanna claw ur eyes out for reals. At 1st sec use adds pop up. Sony remote seriously people for the love of tv..please time ur adds
works perfectly. ads are a bit annoying, I would pay for an ad free version
Once you get used to an ad loading every time you open the app, it functions just like a remote.
New Sony brava 49" and Sony z5 compact. Both connected to home network. App can't find TV. Rubbish
Missing some buttons (teletext, pguide). No tv turn on button - you have turn on your telly from actual remote :( Also ads block the view...
The app detects my TV but none of the controls work. Would be a great app if it actually worked
Don't install its fake
Sometime I will detect sometime it won't. You probably need to refresh 10times when that happen. But the bigger problem is once u click Power Off no way u can turn ur TV on without clicking the manual button on ur LED/TV. Vice versa
Does not work, has connected successfully but does not do anything except glowing the LED no matter which button you press
This is completely rubbish. Full of adds and incredibly basic. No guide/epg button and I can't turn the tv on or off with it
When our remote was brocken,we didn't have any choice except to install this app,and it really worked,a big thanks for this app
Too many adds, won't detect TV automatically, and when set up manually it doesn't work at all
Works very well but will not power up the television once turned off.... I have to use the direct TV remote... But all other functions work great...
My sony lcd has no options for wifi connection even its a new model plz do something to connect it
Don't like the ads that come on but over all very happy with the app
Installed, annoyed by ads, unistalled. Well that lasted 5 mins. Listen to the complaints, provide a paid ad free version . Pure arrogance by your company for ignoring this long.
How is this functional? Tried to add the IP for my TV and the app just doesn't do anything. Can't control the TV with it. Useless price of garbage.
This app doesn't work in my Sony TV R56C model
Too many ads, they make the app unusable. I'd pay a buck not to have the ads, but there isn't a paid version.
I download the app but it's not connecting
Does not work at all.
Useless i have latest model sony bravia and wifi connected as well and app doesn't detect tv
The pop ups and you actually touch and then you see all that crap
by Q####:
I have this app on my s4 & it works perfect. It wants me to connect to a smart TV apparently it's too dumb to realize I have a regular tv. I'm having a hard time patting with my s4 because it makes an awesome remote for everything so far.
