Ratings and Reviews
What a great app, worked right away
I can understand some people's reactions about this app as it can seem confusing how to setup, but I was amazed how quick I got every thing and running with custom buttons within 15 minutes.
My only comment is that it does not show your favourites and if this function exists I would love to know about it. I noticed another Kodi Remote app lists your favourites in a nice display.
Overcomplicated mess but very powerful
Like everything Kodi, the app is an inconsistent and overcomplicated hodgepodge of functionality but the core features are solid and it is extremely powerful.
Just so you know: you *JUST* need HTTP remote access, not the other confusing and insecure JSON-RPC access on a separate port, and you don't need to input the MAC address.
Great Kodi Remote
I’ve used a few different Kodi remote apps a but I think this one is the best/easiest to use.
One feature I would like to see though is a better way to queue TV Shows. 2 features would be great:
- Long press on TV Show Season to open a menu with ‘Play all (in sequence)’ which plays all of the episodes in the correct order. Would be good if it also had ‘Play all (random)’.
- When viewing TV Show episodes list, would be good to have checkboxes on the left. Add a button for ‘Play episodes’ so users can play the selected episodes they want.
Thanks!
