It was working perfectly until the last update [06/06/2021] but now it doesn't connect automatically on startup even if I manually set the IP. Every time I open the app even if it was already open just been in the background for 5 seconds, I have to manually search and select the TV to make it work, regardless the correct IP is set manually. It's ruined the app totally.

These televisions are trash. Always having connection problems, the app won't detect the TV, and customer service was trash. I've never experienced such terrible tech support. She offered absolutely no help, not even one attempt at troubleshooting, not one procedure, and basically said that without the remote, I'm stuck, since there's no way to switch from letters to numbers to input the wifi password, and the password unfortunately must contain numbers, otherwise I would have changed it.

My TV wasn't detected on the WiFi network shared by my phone and my TV automatically, so I had to enter my IP address manually. But that wasn't a problem, and the app popped right up and across the top of the graphic (of the remote) was the msg: [TV]Phil TV detected However, any button pressed on the remote returned the same error msg: Your TV was not detected. Your smart TV and your tablet/phone must be connected to the same WiFi network. 1 word description: FAIL

Absolutely useless. I checked my TVs wifi IP address and its connected as is my phone. The app won't find it on the network. So I manually type in the Tv IP. The TV name populates in the top of the app. But when I use any key on said app I get the same prompt that the phone and TV need to be on the same network. So how pray tell does this app know what to call my TV after I've connected it but it somehow still isnt on the same network??? Garbage app to just give you adds. Keep searching.

would have been really good except for too much ads... if it's just ads at the bottom, it would be tolerable... but full screen ads after every 2 or 3 clicks? That's really annoying - especially the ads that come with audio. Functionally, it's good, except it can't find the tv at times. No tv guide button, too. And, did I say full screen ads after every 2 or 3 button clicks?

App wouldn't connect to my Philips smart TV no matter how many times I tried. reset the TV, reconnected to wifi multiple times and even put in the ip and it just says I have to be on the same network as my phone for my TV and I've reconnected my phone as well to the 1 wifi we have. not worth the trouble even installing.
