Disappointing Universal Remote

Very confusing and not senior friendly. Too many very tiny buttons. I liked the fact that it was backlit but that's about it. Difficult to program even with some tech savvy help.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Insignia 8-Device Backlit Universal Remote. We apologize that the remote control was not intuitive and user-friendly for you, particularly with its small buttons. We understand that seniors often have different needs and preferences when it comes to technology, and we'll take your feedback into consideration as we design future products. We're glad you liked the backlit feature, but sorry to hear that it wasn't enough to overcome the challenges you faced with programming and using the remote. We'll strive to create products that are more accessible and easier to use for all users, regardless of age or tech experience.

Very difficult to program. I still do not have full functionality of all my components and it’s easier to use the actual TV remote at times.

I like the remote and its overall capabilities, but it does not work completely with my older Yamaha receiver. It does everything but have the ability to turn it on. That’s the only reason for it not being a 5-star and the equivalent of the Harmony remote I had previously.
