It’s not working
I programmed it several times and it’s not working I want a refund
Didn’t work
Unfortunately I couldn’t get this remote to work ☹️
Cannot get it to work
With a Directv Gemini device on my TV using an iPad, IOS 16.4
It’s alright
I like this app but only thing needs done to it is it needs a remote control pad on it with numbers and letters to make it easier to search the channels you want to watch.
By far the best DirecTV remote!
Can’t believe it’s only 99 cents 😳 It works beautifully, even across VLANs! Voice command recognition is near perfect. Highly recommend it! Only thing I can’t get working is control of Genie client receivers, but that might be related to my network.
Trash!
App doesn’t work at all! Complete garbage! Don’t buy!!! I want my $1.00 back!
Bull crap
If I had a working remote I wouldn’t need this app. Second NO WHERE did it say you need a WIFI NETWORK TO CONNECT.
