Turn your iPhone into the remote for every smart TV in the house. The app finds the TV on your Wi-Fi, pairs the way the TV asks, and gives you every key, a touchpad, a keyboard and your apps, all in one place that never ends up under the sofa. Works With the TVs People Actually Own Samsung, LG, Sony Bravia, Roku, Vizio, Philips, Panasonic, and the Android TV and Google TV sets made by TCL, Hisense, Xiaomi and many others. Each brand is spoken in its own language, so the keys respond the way the original remote does. Ready in a Minute Put the phone on the same Wi-Fi as the TV and open the app. The TV appears within seconds. The first time, the TV shows a code or asks for permission on its screen, once; after that the connection is automatic whenever you open the app. Every Key of the Remote Power, volume and mute, channels and numbers, inputs, arrows and OK, play and pause, home and back. The keys are laid out like a real remote, with haptic feedback on every press, and the phone's own volume buttons control the TV. Touchpad and Keyboard Swipe across the touchpad to move through menus and tap to select. On TVs with a pointer, the cursor follows your finger. When it is time to search, type on your phone's keyboard instead of hunting for letters on the screen one at a time. Your Apps in One Tap Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, Prime Video and everything else installed on the TV, opened straight from the phone. Keep your favorites at the top of the remote. Turn the TV On From the Couch Most recent smart TVs can be woken over the network. Once the app has paired with the TV, it can turn it on for you, even from standby, and it helps you switch the setting on when the TV needs it. Every TV in the House Living room, bedroom, kitchen: save each TV once and switch between them in a tap. Rename them, forget them, add a new one whenever you like. Private by Design There is no account and no server between you and your TV. The app talks to the TV directly over your home network. No ads, and no tracking of what you watch. Premium Finding and pairing your TVs is free. Premium unlocks the remote itself: every key, the touchpad, the keyboard and app launch. Choose a weekly or yearly subscription, or pay once with Lifetime. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by Samsung, LG, Sony, Roku, Vizio, Philips, Panasonic, Google or any other brand mentioned.
