About
One remote for every TV in your home. Free, with no ads, no purchases, no subscriptions and no tracking.
Control finds the TVs on your Wi-Fi and becomes their remote. Tap your TV, accept the prompt or enter the code it shows once, and you're done. From then on, Control stays paired and reconnects on its own.

A REMOTE THAT FEELS REAL
• A large D-pad around the OK key, or a touchpad you swipe like a trackpad
• Volume and channel rockers, play, pause, rewind and fast-forward, mute, inputs and a keyboard for search
• Molded keys with haptics and soft clicks
• Open your TV's apps right from your iPhone, with the icons your TV provides
JUST ASK
• Tell Control what you want in your own words, like "turn it down a bit and put on Netflix." Apple Intelligence works it out on your iPhone.
• Siri and Shortcuts: "Turn the TV off with Control," "Mute the TV with Control," "Open YouTube on the TV with Control."
SKIP ADS, HANDS-FREE
Tap Skip Ad when an ad starts, and Control presses Skip the moment it appears. Choose a wait from 10 to 60 seconds, and pin the button to your Lock Screen.
YOUR REMOTE, EVERYWHERE

• Control Center and the Action button: TV Power, Play/Pause, Mute, Volume and Skip Ad

MAKE IT YOURS
Twelve themes, light and dark, each with a matching app icon.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No accounts, ads, analytics, cookies or tracking
• No data collected, sold or shared
• Control talks only to the TVs on your home network. Your pairings stay in your iPhone's Keychain.
