## What is Wheel?

Wheel turns your iPhone into a TV remote built around a click wheel. Spin it to move across rows of shows and feel a small click under your thumb for every step. Spin faster and it scrubs through whatever you're watching.

It works with LG (webOS), Samsung, Roku, Google TV and Vizio TVs on your Wi-Fi. No account, no sign-up, no ads.

What it does
• Spin to move left and right, tap the center for OK, hold the left side for Back
• Drag the center like a thumbstick, or switch it to the TV's pointer on LG and Samsung
• Turn the wheel into a volume knob
• See which app is on the TV, jump back to your recent apps, or flip through every app on the TV
• Type on your phone when the TV asks for text; it shows up on the TV as you type
• Turn the TV on and off
• Follow the TV from the Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island, and open Wheel from Control Center

Setup takes about a minute. Open Wheel on the same Wi-Fi as your TV, allow local network access, and pick your TV from the list. LG and Samsung ask you to accept on the TV. Google TV and Vizio show a short code to type in. Roku needs no pairing, though newer models need "Control by mobile apps" turned on.

White in light mode, black in dark mode. Shake your phone to switch.

Wheel talks only to the TVs on your own network. It collects nothing and has no servers.
