Don’t buy! -- sNiPerAno, 2026-05-03 ### *---- "fraud" unkown apple device has been synced to my apple account with there own registered device causing my device to be locked out and create unsual amounts of activity by apps iam not allowed access to -- nezzoya, 2026-03-31 ### *---- "Unuseable" The free version is so loaded with ads. Every time you touch the app you have to sit through a couple of ads. So I paid to get rid of the ads. But the app is so buggy it still doesn’t work right. I think it’s trying to do too much. It looks like there’s a bunch of features I don’t know what they’re supposed to do and it is not intuitive at all. -- FoamerAce, 2025-12-17 ### *---- "Horrible" Don't bother with this. It doesn't work. And the company is impossible to contact for support. I'm am successfully connected to my Mac but the app itself doesn't work. For example pressing "media" only pulls up a mouse (that itself doesn't work) The app won't go to the media list. The various apps hbo, prime, YouTube etc don't launch anything. There is very limited ability to even navigate and like I said earlier all the mouse and such don't do anything. -- 808drums, 2025-08-03 ### ***-- "When it works, it works great!" This app works great when I can get it working properly. I have a desktop and a laptop both running windows 11. For some reason, if both computers are online, this app will only see the desktop server. Even if I manually change all the port numbers and make entirely unique settings, the app will erase everything I input and it will just make two instances of the desktop computer. It will change all of the inputs to the desktop as well. I can only get my laptop to work if I shut down the desktop server. As soon as I turn the desktop back on, the issue returns. -- Breakdown444, 2025-07-26 ### ***** "Great versatile Product" Go across all platform easily -- Gamal Alwan, 2025-01-22 ### ***** "VLC review" Great stuff, but it has so many expert features that it simply confuses people with so many options and the version on my fire tv is pretty junky, I have used for many a year, but still feel like a novice sometimes when things don’t go right. Can’t ever connect to my computer and constantly have to retype my login and password -- whixkeybar, 2024-12-02 ### *---- "BEWARE!!!" This app will get into your computer and jack up your VLC settings to the point that the GUI is inaccessible. I had to delete the app, uninstall VLC and do a fresh install to fix everything this trash broke. After leaving this review I will be reporting the app to Apple because it’s malicious. -- Sparkleyflowers, 2024-10-31 ### *---- "Crashes crashes crashes" I have been using this app for years and now it crashes immediately after opening. Useless. -- twan3, 2024-09-17 ### *---- "scam" requires software download on computer. -- bhdgkss, 2024-07-05 [View all Remote for VLC reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Remote for VLC In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Unlock VLC Features | $2.99 | | Full Features (For Lifetime) | $5.99 | | Unlock VLC Features & No Ads | $2.99 | | Full Features (Yearly) | $3.99 | | Ad Remover | $3.99 | | All Features Without VLC | $7.99 | | Mouse & Keyboard Controls | $2.99 | | Power Controls | $0.99 | | Chrome/Safari/Firefox Controls | $0.99 | | Netflix Controls | $0.99 | ## Remote for VLC Discovered Keywords -
