Undoubtedly the best way to go if the original remote is unavailable! No junk, no interruptions, no slack! #1 remote available by far! Did I mention it is free to use, with most all of the options it comes with?!? Update: After a few years, they have reworked the app and updated the whole app. Although it took a bit to get acquainted with it, due to it being a vastly big change of it's setup, it is better and cleaner than before! 👌 Supurb job, Dev's!

I used to have an older version on my older phone that worked just fine. I installed the newest version for my new phone. All connected well and then we play catch-up. Every press would take a second or two to register. Then it kept disconnecting. Then it would stop then disconnect and repeat. Then it couldn't stay connected. I took out the power out of the stick and it restarted,but after all that I had enough and didn't care to try again watching what I wanted. Also now doesn't connect at all

THERE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A PHYSICAL REMOTE LOCATOR IN THIS APP. WHERE IS IT??? Am Always missplacing my remote. This time tho I can't find it anywhere. Came across this app. I'm like, yes, life saver! It detected my Fire stick for a minute and worked for a minute. Now won't work. It works for a couple minutes then can't locate the fire stick. Back and forth... very aggravating. They are both on the same wifi. I'm just a few feet away. What gives?

when it works it works fine, but when it disconnects and I cant use my remote because it's broken, 90% of the time I have to unplug the firestick for it to connect, and even then only half of the time does the app find my device and reconnect. when it doesn't I just have to cut my losses and try the next day. and yes, I'm connected to the same wifi network.

it worked mostly great the first night, except for a few mis-fires when the app failed to discover the tv. night 2: fire TV keeps freezing up. When I try to reconnect my phone to the TV, I keep getting the "no fire TV found" message, even though it was just playing, and the fite tv home screen is showing on my tv. tried restarting everything, but no dice.

The basic controls are hit or miss when using it through your phone. This is regardless of the app you're accessing, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney, et al. Sometimes other functions happen, ie hitting play brings you to the main menus, pause opens a different streaming app, hitting continue watching selects a different title to play. while these things don't happen all of the time, when they do it's frustrating. Even moreso when the issues happen in tandem. Other than those, not bad...
