" ... Awesome when it works but on my Lg G6 I have to constantly close the app and reopen it before it works or if that doesnt do it then I have to turn the anymote device off and on again. ... Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the app with no difference. ... Latest Android updates and app updates. ... "
" ... Then the search starts how to add a Anymote device. ... This needs the pro version of the app which can be obtained by pressing the "I have an Anymote Home". ... "

" ... Using it with Alexa is a disaster, as your phone has to be on and paired, so more often than not you have to open the app before Alexa will work, and even then, half the time it doesn't work at all and I just have to dig up my old remotes again. ... "

" ... My cell phone has an IR blaster, but I must have the phone pointed at the television to turn it on. ... Many new cell phones have dropped their IR blasters, making the AnyMote Home very useful for controlling your IR devices. ... "
" ... The interface is a little touchy, but I was able to get some fairly complex remote done in a reasonable amount of time. ... "
" ... I love that you can change all of the button layouts on each remote. ... You can even set up Macro commands and assign a button to them on a specific remote. ... "
" ... For example, holding down buttons does not repeat action in many cases like the original remote. ... Get a dedicated universal remote instead. ... "
" ... Allows me to create my own remotes. ... "
" ... What ever the remote can do I can tell Alexa and the anymote makes it happen. ... "
" ... Love this remote!! ... I use it for all my devices and to create universal remotes. ... "
" ... Got Harmony instead and it works Fantastic ... "
