WiFi IR Universal Remote: Smart Home Infrared Remote Blaster, Smart Remote Controller for TV STB, A/C, Curtain Motor, Tuya/Smart Life App Control, Compatible with Alexa

I only bought this to operate the garage door and although the set up wasn't too clear I was done in. It took much time. Very happy with it. In time I may get it hooked up with other things but for now I'm very happy.

Kind of worked, didn't have all my devices pre loaded so had to add them manually. Was a bit flaky so I deleted them, reset the device to re program it and now I can't even get it to connect to my 2.4G network!!! Spend a bit more money and get a decent one

Mostly ok, but goes offline erratically. Can't customise the button layouts. When it goes offline then suddenly reappears it can send bursts of commands. If adjusting volume on an amplifier this is REALLY bad, necessitating whole system immediate manual shutdown. Kinda defets the purpose! Firmware could be improved for better power management options, or simply disabling it. It's a bit half-baked.

The WiFi IR RF Universal Remote has greatly simplified my smart home setup, offering seamless control over various devices from a single point. This remote blaster works perfectly with TVs, set-top boxes, air conditioners, and even curtain motors, making it incredibly versatile. The integration with the Tuya/Smart Life app provides an intuitive interface for managing all connected devices, which is a huge convenience. Compatibility with Alexa adds another layer of functionality, allowing for voice control of my appliances. Setting up the remote was straightforward, with clear instructions guiding the process. Once configured, the remote responded promptly to commands, with minimal lag. The ability to combine IR and RF control in one device is particularly impressive, covering a wide range of appliances and enhancing overall smart home efficiency. The compact and discreet design means it fits well into any room without being obtrusive. It has made controlling my home environment much easier, reducing the need for multiple remote controls. Overall, the WiFi IR RF Universal Remote is an excellent addition to any smart home, offering versatility, ease of use, and reliable performance.

I couldn't get it to work so sent it back.

I was surprised how small this was, which is great for positioning/installing out of site. It is very lite, and is pulled by the lead, so the pads to hold it in place are a good idea. The cable is rather short, however, you can easily and cheaply get the right length cable for your setup. You also need a usb power adapter as is usual. I was not over impressed with the manual, it seemed a little confusing and very small to read. Even magnified the screen shots were difficult to read. Having not been impressed with the manual, the setup could not have been easier. Possibly made a little easier as I already had the tuya smart life app installed & configured for other devices. I powered up the remote, clicked the add button, and it was immediately found and set up. Adding devices can take a little trial and error. The process is straightforward, but with so many devices finding yours can be tricky. You select by category, then manufactorer, This wasn’t ideal as I found sky under set-top-box & tv-box. The tv-box version worked better. Not all buttons from the original remote seem to be present for all devices though, maybe a bit more trial & error. I then tried to setup the remote for my lighting scene controller, which was not listed. The process to learn from the original remote was straight forward, however, after reporting it had learnt the keys, I could not get it to work. I then tried a key from my LG TV (which had previously been setup) this worked fine. So not sure if it’s an issue with learning, or maybe just that particular light controller. (Another similar product does work, so don't think its a rolloing code type issue) A useful facility is to set up scenes, which can send several commands and can be triggered by various events. Overall, this works quite well, but needs a bit of thought & work to do what you’re trying to do. There is no list of compatible devices you can check, which is unfortunate.

Purchased to control my Mitsubushi A/C remotely Super easy to use and setup and works pretty easily The app is a bit basic but functional

This is not the same as shown of the advert, it does not have humidity and temp sensor nor does it have rf control. You can only use it for air con IR frequencies of 38khz
