Tired of chasing your TV remote? Sticky buttons, drained batteries, lost in the couch - or worse, chewed up by your dog. Sound familiar? We’ve all been there. You just want to switch channels or type in a YouTube search, and suddenly you’re wrestling with a remote from 2015. Maybe it barely works. Maybe it only works if you hold it at exactly the right angle. Or maybe you have three different remotes - one for the TV, one for the stick, and one you’ve lost completely. Whatever the case, your patience wears thin. Meet RIMO - the remote app that just works. ---------- Let’s tell you how it helps. Jordan just wanted to relax. A new show just dropped on Prime Video. He powers on the TV - and the remote is dead. Tries to type in the title with the TV’s built-in keyboard… painfully slow. Switches to the streaming stick. Another remote. Gets frustrated. Almost walks away. But then he remembers the ad he saw earlier - RIMO. Grabs his iPhone, downloads the app, connects in seconds… and just like that: With one app, Jordan: - Navigates smoothly using a built-in touchpad - Searches shows without struggling with an on-screen keyboard - Switches between TV and stick with zero effort - Uses adjustable app shortcut buttons for Netflix, YouTube, and more - Even uses voice search when his hands are full (limited to certain TV OSes) - Plus small perks like satisfying tap sounds, gentle haptics, and more Thanks to two control modes, he keeps the layout just how he likes it - touchpad on the bottom, buttons on top (or vice versa). Whether it’s your daily driver or your emergency backup, RIMO brings sanity to screen time. ---------- Quick feature highlights: - Universal remote for Smart TVs & streaming devices - Smooth touchpad navigation - Built-in keyboard for quick input - Adjustable app buttons (Netflix, YouTube, etc.) - Two customizable layouts - Works with most major brands - Voice search support (limited to certain TV OSes) ---------- Supported TVs & Devices: Samsung, LG, Roku, Fire TV, Sony, Vizio, TCL, Onn, RCA, Hisense, Insignia, Philips, Panasonic, JVC, Multilaser - and more!
