## What is Ezzi TV?

Ezzi TV app is the most convenient universal remote for your smart home theater. Seriously

With Ezzi TV you can control multiple devices simultaneously from iPhone (see the full list below). Watch movies, enjoy TV shows, navigate menus, control volume or save favorite watching settings as Actions. Get into the desired watching mode with one tap!

Ezzi TV supports many popular Smart TV brands such as Sony Bravia, LG WebOS, Samsung Smart TVs (made BEFORE 2014), media players (TiVo, Roku and Dune) and Apple TV (2nd, 3rd and latest 4th generations). The app also has limited support for Samsung Tizen Smart TVs (for example 6-series). You can now create actions with Tizen TV to turn it ON and control its volume.

The app works via WiFi and doesn't require any additional software or hardware. All your devices just need to be connected to one local WiFi with your iOS device. MORE other devices are coming soon

Ezzi TV lets you to:
• Use your iPhone as universal remote control for your Smart TVs, media players and HD receivers;
• Control your home theater devices one-by-one or together in an "Action";
• Set up watching parameters and save them as "Action";
• Play scenarios with any combination of supported devices with just a tap;
• Set TV channel you want on;
• Set up the output volume device; 
• Set up input (connection port) for your device (the option is especially suitable if your TV is connected to many source devices (STBs) simultaneously: game console, media player, sound system and others. So you can select what port (connected device) Ezzi TV should choose while playing the Action)
• Enable subtitles on Apple TV 3rd gen

And since Ezzi TV 0.9.4 you can access quickly your devices from Widget.
To start, just swipe down to open your iPhone Notification Center Widget and select your smart home device in Ezzi TV widget. 
  
To enjoy new home theater watching experience with Ezzi TV, just: 
- Get the app; 
- Turn on your Smart TVs, HD receivers or Apple TV and connect it to same WiFi;
- Pair them with Ezzi TV following simple on-screen manual;
- Create actions with your devices and adjust the settings you want to act together (for example connect your Sony TV and Apple TV, turn them on at once and Sony volume at 8); 
- Play the settings combination with one tap by running the corresponding action.

Please note: to access your smart TVs and media players from widget you need to pair them from the Ezzi TV app first and then add Ezzi TV widget to your Notification Center.

*2021-08-26, version 1.0.1*

Can’t even log on without app crashing!!!

### 1/5 — Used to be good. No more.

*2021-03-22, version 1.0.1*

Used to detect my tv about a year ago or so and the app was amazing. Then they suddenly decided to redesign the app and it has since never worked properly. Either doesn’t detect the TV or when it does the UI makes me hate controlling my tv with it. Deleted.

### 2/5 — Buttons missing

*2020-06-05, version 1.0.1*

Home, Back, Settings, Menu buttons are no longer showing up on my iPhone 11.

### 1/5 — Missing buttons with new update

*2020-05-10, version 1.0.1*

Missing remote buttons with the new update. Only shows vol chan power and menu.

### 1/5 — Connection error

*2019-05-05, version 1.0*

When I try to connect the app with my Apple TV 4 it keeps saying connection timed out..

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2019-04-28, version 1.0*

Doesn’t work, don’t bother.

### 4/5 — It’s great but...

*2018-11-20, version 1.0*

The app is great! After the first couple days it was working perfectly for my tv. After about a week none of the buttons were working on my tv beside the volume! This is the actual only app I use since others don’t work for my tv! Please help, I would greatly appreciate it!

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-10-14, version 1.0*

Works perfectly with both of my Sony smart TVs. So far, the only thing I can’t do is turn the TV on, but I can turn it off.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2018-10-04, version 1.0*

Now more ads!!
junk

### 4/5 — Almost 5 star

*2018-08-12, version 1.0*

Downloaded this app after my dog chewed my remote, connecting to Sony Bravia TV was really easy. Able to again change channels, change volume, change inputs.
I would give this 5 star if I had the ability to change channel by entering the channel number instead of having to scroll through all channels.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2020-05-07

Updated layout for devices with notch.

### 1.0 — 2017-03-09

We have resolved issue with ads removal that many of you encountered with the purchase of "Remove Ads".
Relaunch an app after downloading this update and restore an in-app purchase if you bought it. New buyers won't encounter this problem.
Sorry for inconvenience caused :( 
Thank you for patience and supporting the app!

P.S. What's next? Post us at support@ezzi.com if you have ideas on what to add in the app.
P.P.S. Unfortunately we can't add support for Samsung Tizen in new models. This is almost technically impossible and Samsung doesn't provide any access to us.

### 0.9.9 — 2016-10-13

In order to further support this app we're introducing ads.
You can remove ads by opening "More" tab and tapping on "Remove ads" button.
People, thank you for your support and using the app.

### 0.9.7 — 2016-08-30

We have brought the magic to life: you can now add Samsung Tizen Smart TVs (for example 6 series) to your actions, turn it ON and control its volume.
We thought it is enough magic for one update, so "turning it off feature" will come in future releases =)

Okay, okay, we also made some serious stability improvements beacuse, well, it's important. And we're nice.
Enjoy!

With love,  
Ezzi team

### 0.9.6 — 2016-06-29

- Sony TV pairing issues are fixed. Now seriously. No seriously 
- Snapchat and Periscope have been banned in the office 
- If just watching your Apple TV with Ezzi TV app is not enough for you - get more - press the new Context Menu button inside the app

P.S. Steve and Tim from v.0.9.5 asked us to remember you to try Actions: with just one tap your TV will turn on, set its volume to your preferred level and launch Apple TV on its HDMI input.
If you don't have Apple TV - you can configure many other devices to work together. 
OkayOkaaay now we shut up and letting you finally to try new Ezzi TV!
