TVMote App Reviews

After trying another similar app that completely failed I was very happy that this one works. I have no complaints whatsoever.

The layout for this app is not bad. The ads are annoying but you get the basic features needed. Unfortunately, the app crashes frequently and often fails to connect to the TV. I always have to close and restart, if it gets suspended. Its too buggy to be of any use.

Love this app for my LG TV.

Please update this app for iPhone widget. 😢

dont download

This is seriously great and amazing. No ads, no invasive pop up’s begging for premium subscription, simple customizable UI, it has everything you want, that no other TV remote app has!!! 5 stars!!!

Disgusting. No difference between premium and free version if you have the wrong device

This app works great for my TCL Roku TV. I ran into a few minor issues, but the app still does everything I need it to. The app didn't auto-detect my TV, but that could be an issue with my network setup. I was able to add it manually using the IP address. I found my TCL Roku TV's IP address by going into Settings > Network > About. Another issue was with the status menu remote. I use light mode (I know, I know...) and the icons on the buttons are white, and the menu background is light grey - so it makes it really hard to see the icons. I think it would look best if the icons and text were black. If I switch to light mode then everything looks great. The only other feedback I have is regarding the area under the remote buttons. I wish you could have it show favorite channels AND favorite apps. It seems like the only option now is to have it show favorite channels OR all apps.

I tried a lot of remote apps, even the native LG tv app and this works even better then it. The best part is the Apple Watch functionality. It works almost flawlessly and more consistently to control my LG tv using my Apple Watch then any other application I’ve used. Only downside is I cannot turn on the tv from the app but that’s fine, a small price to pay for an amazing app. You don’t have to pay for the pro to enjoy using the Apple Watch as a remote or any remote features but I paid anyways for the pro version to support the developer. Keep up the good work.

I’m missing button for outputs (live tv & HDMI) for 2022 LG 65NANO80 ThinQ webOS TV. Thank you

Version 2.10 just ain't happening. Same review as in May 2022. Can't open it after installation. Pass on this version. Since its more than a year old, the developer may have done the same...

carshed as soon as my connected. cant even open the app anymore it will crash

Connected, but prompts a USB alert. Even when checking to remember the device, alert will reappear. Can click about 3-4 times and control the Fire TV, then app just stops responding. Have to remove remote and re-add, only to get control back for about 3-4 clicks before it again stops responding. Why the disconnect??

I wanted this app because of his compatibility with shortcuts. All that’s fine but it doesn’t actually work with fire TV well. If the TV response to a command, it is very laggy— sometimes taking 20 seconds to do anything and trying to do all of the commands at once.

the new update supports amazon fire tv so i am sure this app is going to bw well updated and people will be liking this app. I think they want to the update because the reviews are like oly 1.0 meaning not a good app. I hope this app will be more good and exciting.

Since the most recent update, I constantly have to reconnect to my LG TV. Prior to this, I’ve never had an issue and the app worked flawlessly. Please fix.

This app works great but not fully adapted all devices. My tvbox (Mi box s) worked but all options isn’t available. Also play and pause button isn’t working. Above all thanks and keep upgrading.

Makes it seem like buying pro gives more buttons but it doesn’t, it only allows me to add volume and playback buttons. Also no widget even though it says there is one!

I use it on my webos lg tv and the watch function works flawless!

I trialed the app and found that I could control the volume of the Chromecast functionality enabled on my Smart TV (Philips 65PFL5504/F7 - built in 2019). I purchased the app thinking that I’d need to do so in order to use any of the other features, like scrolling, etc. Turns out the only thing I can do, even after purchasing the app, is control the volume of my TV. I’m unable to do anything else. App Developer - Please fix this! It seems like a promising app.

Works about 1/5th of the time. The other times it doesn’t connect, whether it says its connected or not. Not worth downloading.

The most wanted function on google home or chromecast is to be able to skip to next song when a crappy is played. Mastercaster has the same flaw.

They need to add Panasonic later versions, like from 2010 on up 🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ THIS IS A HASSLE!

Touch pad quit working on latest update. Lg smart tv and used to use the pad for the cursor but it’s not working anymore.

This app has been amazing. However, the last update broke the Siri Shortcuts. Deleting the app and resetting them up didn’t fix it. On a side note, if you Google Siri + webOS, this app should be the first thing you see. It was way too hard to find on the web. Better marketing is needed.

I can’t seem to get all of the buttons to work on my roku tv, on phone or Apple Watch, even with paid version. Very disappointed. This app would be exactly what I wanted if that was fixed.

When it comes to remote control apps it seems as though disconnections and not detecting the TV on the network are common day to day problems. For some reason the TVmote App manages to stay connected via the Notification Center widget and even Siri shortcuts have had a 100% success rate. Thanks a lot!

The Channel UP DOWN BUTTONS don’t work! Please help!

I was struggling so much with other remote apps and all their pesky pop up adds and stalling like crazy, this is the best one by far 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 5 stars 🌟

Please give us iPad support.

Skip forward and back options would be great, unfortunately the only skip options present will take you to the beginning of what’s currently playing or to the next item in the playlist. With a FireTV remote, you can use the arrow buttons to skip forward/back 10s, 30s, 60s... depending on how many times you click them. Can’t find the equivalent buttons in this app unfortunately.

I downloaded this app for my Panasonic Viera and NONE of the buttons worked.. It tried to make me to buy the full version, but I refuse to pay $2 if the free app doesn’t show me any potential. Wouldn’t recommend this app.

2018 Jesus christ how does this have 3.9 stars when NOT A SINGLE THING IS OPERATIONAL, at least could do volume or power or literally anything, but it doesnt. 👍

This was the best phone/watch remote app I have used, until recently. Now it pairs with my tv, but it won’t control anything. Same with the watch app. I’ve deleted the app and restored it, with no luck. Any ideas?

UPDATE: Bug fixes were fixed within 1 day! Earns the full 5 stars. Best remote app on the watch. I really liked this app but now it doesn’t work on the phone. Correction, I meant it quit working on the watch. It does work on the phone. Sorry for the confusion.

It’s decent and it works but it won’t let me turn my tv up? Only down or mute. Otherwise it’d be great. UPDATE: I have a Toshiba 55L421U

Pass

Very unsatisfied when I realized my movie would exit off my screen once I go to another app on my phone. With no fast forward or rewind buttons it makes it impossible to start the movie where you left off.

Works well. Nice to be able to pause and play chromecast without opening phone.

Really like the updates! App works very well, the best I've used so far on my LG TV.
