Panasonic TV Remote 2 Reviews

PanasonicTVRemote2 works PERFECT (so far)! Granted, I have only had it for an hour or a little longer, however I felt compelled to write this review because it seems to be working so perfectly - easy and smooth. After installing and opening, my Panasonic TV connected with PanasonicTVRemote2 in less than 10 seconds - literally! What little I know so far is that it controls the Power, Volume w/ Mute, and Channels w/ Input. It also features the Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow Buttons along with Viera Connect Tools. You are able to operate all of the above with a keyboard or TouchPad (so far...I prefer the TouchPad myself). I will come back to “update” my Review - good or bad - after having used PanasonicTVRemote2 for about a week.

it’s a great app. Used to work flawlessly. Now? Not so much. Generally caught in a cycle of starting and restarting deleting and reinstalling PanasonicTVRemote2 just to get it to work or even to recognize that it’s online. So where PanasonicTVRemote2 used to open and immediately connect to the TV so I can do my thing, now I have to take seconds or up to a minute just to get it to function properly. No bueno for an app which for me, up until now, used to work without issue.

Please add orientation control to the Video/Picture playing feature. I tried playing a video I recorded on my iPhone5 - and while the landscape orientation was correct on the phone in PanasonicTVRemote2 - it played upside down on the TV. At minimum, the orientations should be the same on both devices, but it would be great to be able to manually rotate videos and pictures. Also the slide to share interface, at least on an iPhone, is very awkward and the preview box in the upper right corner didn't seem to work.

PanasonicTVRemote2 could really make a huge difference to my family's living room experience with a little more polish and attention to detail. Right now the mediocre experience relegates it to a novelty experience rather than daily use. With a little more attention it could solve a lot of the use cases that are pushing me to consider AppleTV, ChromeCast, or some other media center solution.

I know PanasonicTVRemote2 has other features, but I mostly use it as a replacement for the missing remote.

This did work, but has become such a pain that you might as well delete it. TV is connected to wifi, ipad is connected to wifi. The pictures just show “error” when sent to TV. Would it hurt to tell me what the error is? They must have idiots writing this software. Why not just get rid if it if you will not fix/support? Thanks, Panasonic, for another headache.

It used to work real well but it seems to have lost my TV. I have a Viero 5e and when I start PanasonicTVRemote2 it locates the TV again and when I press on the correct model it just ignores the selection and does nothing.
Panasonic does not appear to support their products very well, I haven’t seen an update for many years. 1 star is generous, the TV hasn’t been very smart, but I will be the next one I buy.

My soundbar sits in the way of the IR recovers so PanasonicTVRemote2 is good for controlling my TV set. Wish you could power TV on. Not sure about negative reviews mine has never disconnected from network. Not the most intuitive app but gets the job done.

I’ve double checked the networks. Nothing has changed, except now PanasonicTVRemote2 does not identify the tv despite being on the same network. I decided to download TV remote 3. It works ok but does not allow you to utilize the menus or dozens of other options this version did when it was working.

Works great! I have never had any problem and it’s easy to use and set up

Annoyingly we used to be able to control out Panasonic tv. Then to get better movies playback we connected the TV directly to the router via Ethernet... and since it’s no longer using the Wi-Fi dingle, control doesn’t work. It would have cost what, $0.50 in a Wi-Fi chip to make this possible? Lame.

It worked very good for a long time and all of a sudden it did not detect the tv, internet is working as it should, same network, nothing has changed from earlier this morning to now, I was happy until now, very disappointed...

Few years age I downloaded PanasonicTVRemote2 and it never failed to work well. The more it gets updated the crazier it gets. I have to delete it and reinstall after a few times of use will not connect to TV.

I've had my ZT65 ( a 5000 TV at the time) for 5 years now, since PanasonicTVRemote2 came out over 4 years ago its never been able to turn the TV on, how lame is that? After 20 updates they can turn it off but they cant figure out how to turn it on....LAME!!! Deserves a 0 star.

While the keyboard doesn’t work, everything else I’ve tried does.

Before the last up date I could swipe the music to my tv now it shows up but doesn’t play the music and go’s back to the previous screen, something to do with the update affected it.

PanasonicTVRemote2 used to work great a year ago but it stopped steaming videos from my iphone to tv.
It still show photos from my phone and the remote works.
Please fix this Panasonic. Could be great.

I swear this used to work with my ST50. Now it doesn’t. Can’t find the TV on my network. Latest OS for my iPhone, latest software for the TV. Verified they are on the correct network. Restarting the phone did not help, deleting/reinstalling PanasonicTVRemote2 did not help.

Tried to show my family some pictures and videos on tv, but PanasonicTVRemote2 did not work. It’s able to detect our Viera E60, but does not upload my videos or pictures. I get an error. So now I will delete PanasonicTVRemote2.

Panasonic, PanasonicTVRemote2 needs updating! This used to work fine up until somewhat recently. Now, it won’t connect to my tv at all.

No matter what it tells me TV not found. You’d think a Viera tv with an internet connection on the same network would work... but then you wouldn’t have bought a Panasonic Viera TV.

Simply doesn’t work.

While the keyboard doesn’t work, everything else I’ve tried does.
