Not at all happy with the new update. It was a little glitchy before, but didn't need a complete overhaul to be usable. I love the added haptic feedback, as the old version would frequently not register (or double register) taps. For those complaining about it, there's a toggle to remove it if wanted. Biggest peeve is the lack of control from my notifications panel, looked for a widget as an alternative and there isn't one of those either. Clunky and has to reconnect every time it's opened.

Honestly, this remote is really bad. It constantly has to try and reconnect to my phone. If I leave for the day and come back I have to put in the pin again to connect to the TV. Anytime I leave or close the app, open it up again. When it reconnects it pauses the TV for a split second. Also, at least on pixel phones. The vibration for every top of the app is really powerful.

This app used to be fabulous. I could never find my Fire TV remote, and it was convenient to use my phone, which is always at hand. However, in the last couple o months, it has gone haywire. Starts scrolling at high speed when I'm not touching anything, disconnects from the Fire TV every few seconds-it's just a mess *And after the latest update, I have to reconnect EVERY TIME!
