## What is Cerkya?

COMPATIBLE WITH: Philips 55PUT6794/57 (PUT6794 series, Saphi system). Other Philips models running Saphi may work, but they are untested. Your TV not listed? Use "Request support for my TV" in the app.

Cerkya turns your iPhone into a fast, simple remote for your Smart TV, over your home Wi-Fi.

No account. No pairing. No ads. Open the app, pick your TV, and start pressing buttons.

COMPATIBILITY
Cerkya works with Philips Smart TVs running Saphi (the Linux-based Smart TV platform), which are controlled over your local network. It was built and tested on the 55PUT6794/57, the only officially supported model. Other models running Saphi may work, but they are untested. Support for more TV brands is planned, and you can tell us which TV you have from inside the app.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Power on and off (standby)
- Navigate menus with a D-pad and OK button
- Back, Home, Menu, Source and Info keys
- Volume up and down with the current level, and mute. Press and hold to repeat
- Channel up and down
- Number keypad for channels and PIN codes
- Playback and colour keys
- Launch supported streaming apps from the remote
- Automatic TV discovery on your Wi-Fi, or enter the TV's IP address yourself

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- The app talks to your TV directly over your local network. Commands never go through our servers.
- No analytics, no tracking, no advertising.
- A small diagnostics log stays on your iPhone. If something doesn't work, you can choose to send it to us with the in-app "Request support for my TV" form. Nothing is sent unless you tap Send, and you can preview exactly what will be sent. Requests are sent securely to our support team.

TRY IT WITHOUT A TV
Tap "Try demo mode" on the first screen to explore the remote with a simulated TV.

GOOD TO KNOW
- Your iPhone and TV must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
- iOS will ask for Local Network permission. This is how the app finds and controls your TV.
