Control your TV with your mobile device

UniMote - Universal Smart TV Remote Control is a free utility that lets you use your device as a controller for your home’s smart television. This app from SensusTech LLC supports a wide range of smart TVs like Smart TV, Samsung, LG, Android TV, Google TV, Fire TV, and Sony among others.

Much like your classic universal remotes, UniMote - Universal Smart TV Remote Control allows you to adjust your television’s volume and other settings in addition to changing the channel. Best of all, you can even use it to begin screencasting videos from your device to your TV.

What can it do?

With UniMote - Universal Smart TV Remote Control, users can freely manage their TVs without having to make use of a physical remote control, which can be pretty helpful for instances where multiple areas of your home need to use the controller. The scope of UniMote's functionalities is where it truly shines. It caters to both smart TVs through Wi-Fi connectivity and regular televisions via an IR Blaster.

The sleek and modern interface is easy enough to navigate without feeling unfamiliar and can be used to perform a number of actions—like view the TV guide, change HDMI connections, and share your device’s screen—in a quick and comfortable manner. Users should keep in mind, though, that in order to maximize the app’s functions, both devices have to be connected to the same Wi-Fi and the television has to be already switched on.

Numerous users have also noted issues with a proliferation of pop-up ads that can slow the app’s performance. These ads also appear in short intervals of each other, which makes it even more difficult to actually make use of the app for its main purpose. You can opt to make an in-app purchase, however, to remove ads from the app completely.

Great when it works

UniMote - Universal Smart TV Remote Control is a simple yet helpful solution for when you’ve lost your television remote or for homes that have multiple televisions that are typically used simultaneously. Its compatibility with various TVs and the comfortable UI both make it easy to operate without having to read a manual. However, with too many ads getting in the way of app usage, it could still use some work.

    There are ads popping up every time you tap something, making it really annoying because you keep tapping on them accidentally. On top of that, when you finish using the remote, you have to close the app which shows you another ad, and then reopen it to add your TV again if you want to use it later, otherwise the remote won't work.

    Cannot connect to fire stick. So many ads. Took forever to set up and connect to the TV. Only had a short time to use the app because of all the ads. Don't use it if you can avoid it.

    At first, everything was going fine with the app, except for the annoying ads. But now, even though I can connect it to my TV, it doesn't do anything. I've tried reconnecting and uninstalling and reinstalling, but it's still not working.

    This app is really good, but sometimes it doesn't work. Right now, it won't connect to one of my TVs. Whenever I enter the pairing code, it says "Registration Canceled". We've had problems with this remote before. The ads are a bit annoying, but you can pay for the remote to remove them. It would be nice if there was a warning before the ads pop up so you don't click on them accidentally. Unfortunately, I had to uninstall the app and look for a new remote. 😕

    App description claims it can control smart devices and use infrared, but actually can't. When opened, it immediately tries to connect to smart devices. If you stop that, the app becomes useless. Every fifth tap triggers an ad, even the settings button. So if it worked properly and you wanted to increase the volume from 5 to 15, you'd encounter at least two ads. Not meeting the description, overly loaded with ads. A disappointing app.

    You make a button click, and an ad pops up. The app is slow most of the time, and sometimes the buttons don't work at all. I'm confused about your decision.

    The app functions fine, but the ads are really irritating as they randomly pop up while I'm scrolling. This makes it impossible to use the remote until the ad finishes playing. It's a real nuisance, especially when I'm just trying to search for a movie. I've decided to uninstall it.

    Absolutely worth it! Broke my remote just 8 minutes ago, and my family was freaking out about finding a universal one nearby. Then I thought of buying one online. And voila, problem solved!

    App works well on my Xiaomi devices. I like the app, but the issue is the frequent ads every 30-50 seconds. Every time I tap a button, another ad pops up. They should limit it to at least every 5 minutes. This is too much. So, I uninstalled the app and now I'm using the Google TV remote app.

    Even though I don't like to leave bad reviews, I have to for this app. I wouldn't mind seeing a few ads every now and then, but this app shows them way too frequently. It's so annoying when you're in the middle of doing something and an ad pops up out of nowhere. I only use it because my TV remote is broken. But as soon as I find a better option, I'm getting rid of this app without hesitation.
