Universal remote for Roku tv Reviews

I would rate 5 stars on this if it didn’t pop up ads every time I tap on a button 3 times and for some reason turning the volume up or down never works for me I don’t know if it does that to other people but it does it on me. Universalremote is very good but I hope you fix all of that.

Ads every single time you touch a button. Such a joke. Takes me 5 minutes just to get to start a show. Greedy corporate cant even offer a decent remote without shoving ads down our throats. If the companies paying thousands think anyone is actually watching these ads or paying any attn to them, they are insane. Have had the remote for about a week and honestly couldn’t even tell you what a single ad is. Just where the x is and whether or not I have to wait 5 seconds to push it.

It does work for the tv…but not worth it with the amount of pop ups…seems like it’s every 1-4 times you press a button. Some the ads you can’t skip out of right away and are accompanied by sound which startled me first few times.
Overall I found it not worth it and unbelievably frustrating to use and swapped TVs with the smaller one from spare room that I still had a remote for.

I have a big family I have four kids they all have phones and I came home from work and the remote was lost I couldn’t find it so I downloaded Universalremote on everybody’s phone and it only works on mine and we have the same phone and now whenever someone wants to watch TV I have to give them my phone when I go to work I have to even leave my phone there. And way too many hands

Connected immediately, works just like the remote BUT you can’t turn the tv on...that is the only downfall. If you don’t have your remote then you’d want to be able to use this for all functions. Otherwise perfect for a free app.

Their were too many ads it was better to use my broken remote than Universalremote every button was another add that would be like 5 seconds I can honestly say that with the amount of ads Universalremote has it would be better to download another app I am tired of Universalremote and I’m just gonna try to find another

Broke my remote tonight and had to special order a new one. This is the fourth app I have tried and works the best of any! It’s free so there is a few ads but once your tv is on it links instantly and works great! Happy I found this! Thank you!

I just love this report it has all the things I need and it has everything I need and one remote thank you for doing Universalremote and thank you for everything

Very convenient but could be tweaked and edited to be a little more simpler for younger user but overall a nice app.

Ps could use less ads,atleast a 1:30 second cool down instead of 30 second.

I love the all but there are wayyyyy to many adds I give it a five star because the last one you had to pay to turn the volume down

It’s works but I think it’s too many ads to watch one show. For example: in order to get to Netflix alone, there 4 ads. Then once in Netflix I have to watch 6 more ads. It’s very frustrating. And I don’t like they invading my search engine to create the ads.

It will be nice if the remote also had the volume feature

Way too many ads shouldn’t have to pay to remove them when you can use another remote app with none lol

I loose my roku remote nearly everyday. So I have tried a lot of different roku apps because of the ads, but when I say this has been the worse one to try. The ads are ridiculous and out of control, literally every three clicks you make another ad is popping up. I think that the ads should really be stopped or decresed because it’s so annoying.

Universalremote is good overall but there is one problem there are too many ads every i click an button I get a ad and I literally just got an ad 9 seconds ago. So um can please remove some ads because that’s just ridiculous

i would give this a 5 out of 5 stars but theres WAY too many ads but overall Universalremote is pretty useful for when you lose your remote and cant find it or when u end up breaking your remote

Universalremote is amazing but there is just way to many adds, I hope you guys make a update where there isn’t adds every 5 seconds

I love being able to control my tv with my phone. For some reason though, left is up and up is left. Everything else works great!

Not only is this one of those apps that will take you for a payment when your distracted, it charges for the entire year! I couldn’t even get it to work by the time I was charged for the hole year of service I wouldn’t be using.

Bottom line, Universalremote is not so Roku friendly with my 65” Roku SmartTV. This one is a No Go.

This is such a convenient app. Okay! I can deal with the ads. My remote starting spazzing so this is the perfect alternative!!

I love it! Never buying a new remote 😂

Works great but your tv MUST be on within about 20 minutes so really worthless if you lose your other remote

Has worked like a charm since the moment I downloaded it and starting using it!

Universalremote is awesome! Lost our controller in the move. Because of this, we don’t have to buy another one! Thanks a bunch

Control to turning on the tv

I bought the upgraded version so that I could use the remote without having to stop every 20 seconds for ads. However, I STILL have them even though I made the purchase. Very disappointed!

Lost Roku TV remote- tried couple apps this one only one that worked at the time. But now it won’t work-won’t turn Roku tv on. Says tv needs to be on but no way to turn on cuz remote lost- which is why I got in first place..😟

Too many commercials. After each press of a button it goes to an add.

When I’m about to use the remote add pops up it’s annoying

Downloaded app and it worked for less than a day. Can’t select device. If the device shows up (which is random) it swill not select it. Even purchased app without ads. Is a total waste.

If you try to change the channel, you have an add pop up every 5th time you press the remote. Takes you 30 minutes to scroll through the channel. This is a deuce dropped app.

It works but you get an add with every two buttons that you push. It’s really annoying.

I wish it would control volume

These ads make this not even worth downloading but it works so I’ll keep it
