Major Highlights of the Week

Casting Misconception
Many users mistakenly believe the app allows casting from their devices to the hotel TV, leading to frustration when they discover it only functions as a remote control. This misunderstanding is exacerbated by misleading hotel TV instructions suggesting casting capabilities.
I thought I could cast Netflix from my phone, but it's just a remote control.
Connection Errors
Users frequently encounter issues with the app not accepting the code provided by the hotel TV, resulting in an inability to connect and use the app's features. This persistent error undermines the app's core functionality and frustrates users.
Entered the code multiple times, but it keeps saying it's invalid.
Volume Control Issues
The app's volume control is inconsistent, with some users experiencing unexpected volume increases or being unable to set specific volume levels. This inconsistency can lead to disruptive experiences, especially in shared hotel rooms.
Tried to lower the volume, but it went really loud instead.
Redundant Functionality
Users express dissatisfaction with the app's limited functionality, as it merely replicates the basic functions of a physical remote control without offering additional value. This redundancy makes the app seem unnecessary to many users.
It's just a TV remote for a TV that already has a remote.
User Interface Design
The app's user interface, while easy to navigate, is criticized for poor design choices that detract from the overall user experience. This suggests a need for a more intuitive and aesthetically pleasing design.
Customer Support Gaps
Users report inadequate customer support, with calls going unanswered and troubleshooting instructions proving ineffective. This lack of support exacerbates user frustration when encountering app issues.
