Zybra Remote Control

Lost the remote? Zybra Remote Control turns your iPhone into a universal Wi-Fi remote for every smart TV in your house: Samsung, LG, Roku, Vizio, Amazon Fire TV, Google TV, and Sony Bravia. No clunky infrared. No fragmented per-brand apps. Pair once on Wi-Fi, get a clean iPhone-native remote pad with a full D-pad, volume rocker, channels, transport keys, voice search, and one-tap app launches. LOST THE REMOTE? ZYBRA STILL WORKS Most universal-remote apps secretly need your original TV remote during pairing. Zybra is built around the opposite assumption: that you do NOT have it. - Roku: no pairing at all. Install and start controlling. - LG webOS: TV displays a PIN, you type it in. No remote tap. - Vizio SmartCast: TV displays a PIN, you type it in. - Amazon Fire TV: TV displays a PIN, you type it in. - Google TV and Sony Bravia: TV displays a 6-character code, you type it in. - Samsung Tizen: needs a tap on the original remote (or a 30 second auto-allow on some 2018-2019 firmware). The only brand where Wi-Fi alone is not enough. SUPPORTED BRANDS - Samsung Tizen - LG webOS - Roku and Roku TV - Vizio SmartCast - Amazon Fire TV - Google TV (Sony Bravia, Xiaomi Mi TV, TCL, Hisense, Skyworth, Chromecast) KEY FEATURES - Universal 5-way D-pad with crisp haptic feedback on every press - Volume and channel rocker with mute and last-channel - Power on and off - One-tap launchers for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney Plus, Spotify, Apple TV Plus, HBO Max, Hulu - Number pad for direct channel entry - Voice search shortcut - Coloured DTV buttons (red, green, yellow, blue) for EPG and teletext - Type on your iPhone for any TV search box - Save unlimited TVs grouped by room - Auto-reconnect the second you walk back into Wi-Fi range - 11 languages - Light and Dark theme that follows iOS PRIVACY Zybra Remote Control runs entirely on your local Wi-Fi. Pairing tokens are stored in your iPhone Keychain and never leave the device. REQUIREMENTS - iOS 17 or later - Wi-Fi: your iPhone and TV must be on the same network - Local Network permission A NOTE ON APPLE TV Apple TV is intentionally not controllable from third-party apps. We surface Apple TVs in discovery so you know they are there, but the actual remote stays in iOS Control Center. Have feedback? Tap Settings, then Send Feedback inside the app. Privacy & Policy: https://zenitystudio.cloud/policy.html Term of Services: https://zenitystudio.cloud/terms.html
