- pas 6y ago// just a nitpick: advertisement is just one 'd' so, as far as I know it should be ads
- 45ure 6y agoMy Galaxy S4 on 4.4.x had this app pre-installed. I must have either rooted prior to any parasitic behaviour or attribute it to Xprivacy, as I did not encounter any ads. Regardless, not endorsing this app, just an alternative view, as it not only acted as a stopgap for a flailing universal remote, but also had a decent TV guide from what I can remember.
- AdmiralAsshat 6y agoThat one hurt when it deteriorated into adware. At its prime, it was a great app, and being able to control my TV using the IR Blaster in my HTC One M7 really felt like The Future™ for a brief couple years. Now the app is gone and phones have removed the IR Blaster.
- robotnikman 6y agoThat app was super useful for me when I had a Note 3 with IR blaster, I had so many devices which I could control (and oddly enough, my laptop had an IR sensor). Shame to see what it turned into.
