New in beta: Google TV and Android TV sets and streamers (TCL, Hisense, Philips, Chromecast with Google TV); and Amazon Fire TV sticks, cubes and Fire TV smart TVs. Tell us how it works for you from Help › Email Support. A REMOTE THAT FEELS RIGHT • Big D-pad or swipe touchpad, with hold-to-repeat • Volume, channels, mute, playback, input and number pad • Type into your TV's search boxes from your phone's keyboard • Jump straight to your TV's apps YOUR VOLUME BUTTONS CONTROL THE TV While Remote Papi is open, your iPhone's own side buttons change the TV's volume. No looking at the screen. LOCK SCREEN REMOTE Power, volume, mute and play/pause right on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. SIMPLE MODE A few big, clearly labeled buttons (power, louder, quieter, channels and up to four favorite apps) for kids, grandparents and guests. Locked with Face ID so only you can leave it. SCENES One tap for several steps. “Movie Night”: turn on the TV, wait, open your favorite app, lower the volume. “Everything Off” at bedtime turns off every TV. Run them from the app or ask Siri. EVERY TV, EVERY ROOM Save all your TVs. Remote Papi picks the one that answers on the network you're on, even in homes with more than one Wi-Fi. SHARE WITH FAMILY Show a QR code and another phone adds the TV in seconds. Pairing keys and passwords are never shared. HELPFUL FROM THE FIRST MINUTE A 30-second guided tour, step-by-step help for turning your TV on from your phone, and a demo TV so you can try everything without a TV nearby.
