When you open a layout, Net Remote immediately connects to the remote host so you can start controlling it. Net Remote uses so called layouts to know what to display on the screen and where to respond to your taps.

Network TV Remote

Network TV Remote turns your iPhone or iPad into a private, remote control for compatible smart TVs on your local Wi-Fi network. No accounts, no tracking, no cloud — your device talks directly to your TV and nothing else. Compatibility - Designed for Philips smart TVs that expose the open JointSpace HTTP API (v6) on their local network — most SAPHI-OS models from 2020 onwards (for example the xxPUS7xxx and xxPUS8xxx ranges, including the 50PUS7607). What's inside - Auto-discovery: scans your local Wi-Fi network for compatible TVs in seconds. - Manual IP fallback: if your network blocks discovery, type the TV's address directly. - Multiple saved TVs: switch between living-room, bedroom, or office TVs with a single tap. Give each a nickname. - Full remote layout: power, navigation pad with OK, Home, Back, Source, media transport, live volume slider, numeric keypad, red/green/yellow/blue colour keys, subtitle toggle. - Sleep timer: 15 / 30 / 60 / 90-minute presets with a live countdown that keeps running in the background. - App shortcuts: launch Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney+ on the TV with one tap. - Auto-reconnect: the last connected TV is restored on launch. - Connection status: a clear badge tells you whether the app is searching, connecting, or connected. - Dark-mode-only design tuned for evening use. Privacy first - No accounts, no sign-ins, no profiles. - No analytics, no tracking, no telemetry. - No cloud: every command goes from your iPhone or iPad straight to the TV on your own Wi-Fi network. Nothing else. - Settings (TV addresses, nicknames, optional Wake-on-LAN URL) are stored locally on your device and removed when you uninstall. Optional add-ons (you control them) - Wake-on-LAN: power the TV on from cold by pointing the app at a small HTTP relay on your home network (e.g. Home Assistant, a tiny Pi script, or any always-on device). - HDMI-CEC bridge: send fallback commands through a Chromecast or Pi-CEC device on the same HDMI trunk if it exposes an HTTP endpoint. Setup is two minutes 1. Make sure JointSpace / EasyLink is enabled in the TV's network settings. 2. Open the app and tap Scan network — or type the TV's IP address. 3. Tap Connect. That's it.
