TVRem

I have been not so patiently waiting for a remote for iPhone that works well on my Samsung TV and Sony soundbar. I really don’t get why every other app both 1. Didn’t work well, 2. Cost an absurd amount, like $2.99 a week. Thank you dev of this app!!

It’s free which is the main bonus. Most cost and it’s ridiculous pricing. But this is free and pretty good. The only issue is the latency can sometimes lag up to half a second behind. Which isn’t too big of a deal most of the time. But in some situations it can be frustrating.

Overall it’s very good.

This app was a treasure, I went through a handful of remote control apps, and all of them were useless considering that they asked for payment subscriptions. This was completely free. it also thoroughly went over directions and instructions. Highly recommend.

Our dog chewed up our original TV remote, and the replacement universal remote that we purchased is frustratingly sub-par. I added this free remote to my phone to use instead and it’s been very helpful! The missing star is only because it sometimes takes a couple of minutes to connect to the TV, but that may happen with any remote app. Otherwise!

I tried three of the leading paid remote apps before I discovered this one. None of those apps totally worked. One would control just the volume. This free app works better than any of the other applications. I have a JVC Google smart TV.
