Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

About Universal Remote TV Control
A TV remote always going missing? Or you just can’t stand the very sight of this old-school device anymore? Then you are in the right place—using a remote control app on your phone will save you all these headaches.
Universal Remote TV Control brings watching TV to a new level!
It’s a handy no-frills application that lets you control a web-connected TV set from your iPhone. The app copies the functionality of the handheld remote and allows you to rule over everything: channels list, volume, menu, info, tools, and other controls (Play/Pause/Stop, etc.). It works with the most popular brands—Samsung, LG, Sony, Philips, Panasonic, Vizio, TCL, Toshiba, Xfinity, Insignia, Hisense, Element etc.—and supports TV models of different years of production and screen size. The only thing required is to connect your iPhone and your TV device to the same Wifi network—and your touchscreen will turn into a navigation pane with all the functions of the usual remote.
FEATURES:
• Quick and simple to use: the app serves as the physical remote and is always at hand
• Automatic customization: makes things a bit more user-friendly to set up
• Haptic feedback: gives this awesome vibration and sense of realism
• Nice responsive touchpad: for the aesthetically pleasing look, feel, and touch
• Keyboard input: makes TV searching a no-brainer
• Works through WIFI: the app automatically detects any TVs on your network for you to control everything smartly with your phone
Universal Remote TV Control is a full-featured mobile version of a physical TV remote that makes your life much easier. No need to get up from the couch and go for the remote or firestick or to buy a new one in case you lost it. Sync the app with your device to browse your favorite shows, movies, and programs easily with a phone. Make the most out of technology for your better smarter life!
