Review on Broadlink RM4 Universal Control Compatible by Anthony Mayes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with Google Home/Assistant

I hate buying Chinese products that require my wifi password but in this case I don't know of any other option. I installed the Broadlink app and contrary to what some of the YouTube reviews have described, the app didn't ask for permission to reinstall a non-PlayStore version. This is very good and boosts my self-confidence. It took a few attempts to get the WiFi information to the RM Mini, but after about 3 attempts the connection was established. I set up a new remote and selected Scepter and had full control of my TV through the app. I then linked the app to Google Home, which was very easy and I was able to tell Google Home right away to turn my TV off and on. Big! I then created a scene in the Broadlink app called "My Roku" and added Channel Up to switch to TV mode, then a delay, then Source, another delay, Down, Down, Down and " OK". I couldn't figure out how to get the scene to show up in Google Home and I still can't find it, but when I say "Hey Google, turn on my Roku", the RM4 mini just turns on my TV around. Затем я создал сцену для "Мой компьютер" и "Мои игры", и теперь я могу просто сказать "Привет, Google", активировать "Мой компьютер", "Мои игры" или "Мой Roku", и телевизор переключится на то, что I need. I'm very happy with how well it works and glad I don't need anything other than the standard Broadlink and Google Home apps to get it done.
