I was annoyed at the thing and the rest of the family openly frustrated. Remembering to choose the correct device at the top of the remote every time when you wanted to do something with a different device was a pain.
I wasn’t able to program discrete power on and off commands for most of the devices so the command sequences would turn devices on and off seemingly at random. However, even if that remote could learn commands from other remotes and there was an option of creating command sequences, the remote was always cumbersome to use.
