The Marriage Savior
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.That’s what they should call Caavo, The Marriage Savior. It’s awesome, got it on preorder, fast shipping from Best Buy. Setup takes some time and effort but don’t let it deter you, it’s worth it. Caavo puts the Harmony hub and remote I was using up until now to shame. Just like they say, you plug in your home theater device including streamers, video game systems, cable boxes, etc. and Caavo reads and pulls information off of them. I’ve got my Apple TV, PS4, and Eco Dot synced up. In comparison to the Harmony I was using Caavo is faster, easier to setup, doesn’t require you to switch components, works every time you use it, and truly is a universal option due its ability to search across anything you have plugged into it and any app you are signed into. It’s nuts. In regards to The Marriage Savior, I knew I had a winner after I had set it up and told my wife to “Tell the Caavo remote what you want to watch.” She looked at me like I was insane, picked up the remote and said, “Watch Harry Potter” and boom, results from HBO Now, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, DirecTV, our free trial of Play Station Vue, and YouTube showed up. She was shocked. I couldn’t be happier. The logical response here was, “Now who’s insane?” But of course I want to stay married so I just smiled and thanked the Caavo gods for creating The Marriage Savior. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who owns a TV. You really can’t go wrong for the price. The time it saves is worth it.

Not what I expected..
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review...worked great once the setup was complete. I have the FiOS box, Nvidia shield and a Wii U connected and so far it plays friendly with all 3. Also like the added voice search, so, so far so good. Software is a little cumbersome and takes a little long to configure but works well, hence the reason for the 4 stars.

This is the real thing! Buy it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used the Harmony remotes for years with mixed results, but this is the real deal. Why? Because it works every time. I have a Samsung TV, Sony soundbar, Xfinity box, Apple TV, FireTV and Blueray DVD. You just connect them all via HDMI to the Caavo, connect the Caavo out to the TV HDMI and life is so good. You can control every device automatically from the Caavo remote. Comes with detailed instructions for various setups. Best of all, you can get a low cost subscription that pushes content suggestions to you and recognizes the saved program queue in Xfinity. I got it on sale, but even at full price, it rocks. Oh, and best of all, my wife can now navigate to programs on all the connected sources. Before Caavo, she was lost. It has a voice option, too. So why are you still sitting there! Go buy it!

Very cool product. Didn't really work for me.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great product/idea. It did not work for my setup, as it doesn't play well with LG Smart TVs and Tivo. I have great hopes for the future enhancements. Works great is you have an Apple TV, Roku, or other streaming devices.

OK, but you need a yet another subscription
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this on sale, definitely not worth the full price. You need an additional subscription for some features — which are not worth it... Plays well with Sonos. Didn’t really work with my older generation Fire TV Stick from 2018 but works with Fire TV Stick 4K 2019. Good if you want a universal remote and especially if you have more devices than your TV’s HDMI outputs. Their HDMI cables are outrageously expensive. Good support documentation online.

Works as advertised
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really easy setup. Works great with my DirecTV, Roku, Chromecast, and PS3. As advertised, you will only need one remote going forward. If you’re considering Caavo pull the trigger!

Cordlover's delight - for the whole family
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read that control center by caavo is a cordcutters tool but really, i think this device is meant for a cordlover. The seamless integration of my directv, roku, xbox and ps4 is truly amazing. My family and I love to watch my sports, news and my dvr content on my directv and my streaming apps on roku and play games on xbox and ps4. Control Center is magical. The voice based commands to switch or launch and app or tune to a channel are flawless along with turning on and off my tv and avr. This itself would seal the deal for me but the guys have gone way beyond that. I can search for anything and it shows me the results for live tv (now and upcoming), dvr, top streaming apps, youtube and plex. My family fights now to sit and watch TV as opposed to ipads. my kids love the youtube integration. I love that I can just say the name of my team and it shows me when the game is going to come on. My kids, wife and my parents all use it without asking me a single question - hats off to these guys for making a product do that. TV has never been so much fun. The movie nights, the games - i am really enjoying what this product does to me and my family. Also, if control center does not find some content it allows me to search my directv or roku. It also know when i use my tv remote or any of my other remotes. I was using harmony before but it could never do it reliably and i would end up always turning the tv on for everyone else in the house. Now if my kids turn off the TV using TV power or use PS4 or roku remotes to control the system, control center never fails. It knows whats going on with the system, exactly. Its an amazing product and experience. I am happy to take life time subscription, its a slam dunk deal. I am eager to also see what else they will bring to this box in the future.

MUCH More than just a universal remote!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a Logitech Harmony controller so we could reduce the number of remotes in the Living Room, when I came across this gem; not only does it eliminate the need for multiple remotes, you actually dont need ANY remotes when hooked up correctly, and if you use a Google Home device and issue voice commands...it supposedly works with Alexa too, but, as usual, Alexa setup was trouble some, so I just skipped it. Anyways, just follow the on screen guided setup, and within 20-30 minutes, you have total control of all your devices, including Amazon Fire TV, Nvidia Shield, Roku, your blue ray player, anything, you name it! Also, you get complete control over Netflix/Amazon Prime,/YouTube, and your DLNA software, including Plex! This device is awesum, much more than I thought it would be, and, getting it on sale before Xmas was just an added bonus! Grab one ot these things today, and simplify your viewing life!

Posted .Thanks for the nice words. Sometimes Alexa can be a little stubborn accepting the command to link to Caavo. It sometimes can take 3-4 tries telling her your code for her to accept it. After that, you will have voice control from across the room!

Good alternative to Logitech Harmony
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a replacement to my failing Logitech Harmony remote and came across this. My other half would constantly get annoyed with our Harmony wouldn't change all the settings properly... after watching several videos online, I decided to take the leap and try this. I was pleasantly surprised. It functions perfectly for what we need. The remote took some getting used to, but it controls everything I need it to with my entertainment system. It recognized my TV, AVR, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch automatically... have an older Mac Mini used at an entertainment server, took a little bit of tweaking to get that to work properly, but in the end it worked. Overall our household is very happy with it.

Intuitive to use and a great device
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Caavo Control Center to replace the multiple remotes I had and to reduce clutter. It has worked like a charm and is better than I envisioned. It was extremely easy to setup and automatically detected my various devices, a tv, a chromecast, a roku, blue ray player and my cable box. The interface is extremely easy to use as well and both my kids and their grandma were able to seamlessly transition to it without a bunch of instructions from me. Thanks Caavo.
