Turn your iPhone and iPad into a universal remote control and companion for smart televisions and streaming devices. Simplify Entertainment • Tired of digging through sofa cushions for a lost remote? With this app, a fully functional remote control is always a tap away. • Set up your TV in 30 seconds or less. Universally Compatible • All major brands of TVs and streaming devices supported. See our full list below. Multi-Device Support • Control all your TVs and devices in one place. One tap switches between them. • You can even make a "combo" remote that controls your TV and streaming stick together - no juggling. Captions and Subtitles, on the side • Instead of covering the movie action with text, display captions and subtitles on your second screen: an iPhone or iPad. Easy navigation control • With an integrated d-pad / touchpad, you can tap or use swipe gestures to navigate TV menus. • Designed so your eyes stay on the TV screen, not your phone. • One long swipe skips multiple steps at once. Time Jumper for YouTube • Get to the good parts of a YouTube video like a pro. • Slide slowly for precision control over the current play position. • Flick fast to leap across to different scenes. Photo and Video Casting • Throw your photos and home movies onto the big screen in seconds. Keyboard Input and Voice Search • Type on your TV with the iOS keyboard under your fingertips — or just speak. Design Your Perfect Remote • Make quick access buttons for your favorite TV apps and inputs. • Launch apps like YouTube, Netflix, HBO Max, and Disney with one tap. • Direct switch to TV inputs/sources like HDMI1, HDMI2, or Antenna (“Live TV”). • Go minimal or load it up with all the buttons. • Style your remote in finishes like Space Gray, Silver, Gold, Rose Gold, and Obsidian. All the Regulars • Power on/off. This app uses Wake-on-LAN (WoL) to power on TVs that support it. • Standard media buttons like play, pause, rewind and fast-forward. • Change channels with channel up/down buttons and numpad. • Audio buttons for volume control and mute. On remote controls for streaming devices, these buttons can control the companion TV. How Does This App Work? • It connects with your TV securely on your home wireless network. It doesn’t use IR (Infrared) like a traditional remote control. • It uses Apple Bonjour (zeroconf) and UPnP discovery to find devices on your home network automatically. • Some surprise benefits of Wi-Fi control: + You don’t need to point your phone at the TV for it to work. + There is no cross-interference between two TVs. + If your roommate is playing the TV too loud, turn it down from the other room. Compatibility Supported platforms • Roku • Google TV • Fire TV OS • Samsung Tizen • LG WebOS Supported devices • Amazon Fire TV Stick • Roku Streaming Stick • Google Chromecast • Nvidia Shield • Xiaomi Mi TV Stick Supported TV sets • Samsung (2016+) • LG • Sony • Vizio (2016+) • TCL • Hisense • Sharp • Toshiba Also: Philips, Insignia, Panasonic, JVC, RCA, Onn, Element, Magnavox, Grundig, Onida, OnePlus, Realme, Xiaomi, Skyworth, Blaupunkt, Metz, XGIMI, Haier, Pioneer, Westinghouse This app is not affiliated with the TV brands mentioned here.

Hairzilla 2.0
This app is the best tv app I’ve seen. Works great with my LG. the controls are a little sensitive but if you are careful it works great. I haven’t been able to find a manual for the app. You are kind of on your own. 👍 The volume is extremely slow. Should be able to long press to inc/dec or use iPhone volume buttons. Volume +/- is very sluggish!

I just opened the app and guess what you need to buy swipe pad you can’t just click it and watch tv you have to buy it. When you are tying it out you get to use it but not when you actually are using it. This is not ok and then I was going to try to go to an app but you need to buy that too. You also need to pay to turn it on and off what the heck is this. Saying that you need to pay for time jumper like what.😭you have to pay to pause it too you have to pay just use the app basically. Oh I have to pay to TURN UP THE VOLUME! I also can mute the TV. I have an up at 17 and I can’t turn it down. I lost my remote and after this, I might as well just give up.💔Update: I tried to delete the app and it doesn’t work you can’t delete it clicked on it and all it says was remove app from home screen and I think if you will make a app people can’t delete then make it good and not what you made

This is the first app that worked for my TV. it’s useable and atleast better than others that I’ve used since the others didn’t work. I’ve had a few problems with connections on the app itself, that’s the only thing and the turning on and off doesn’t work but it’s fine, i’m not to worried i lost my remote so this will work. i recommend this app if you have a insignia TV and want to use a app that doesn’t make you pay to use it:

Thanks for the feedback. We do support Insignia TV's that run both Fire TV operating system and Roku operating system. Power on/off isn't supported on all TV's, but we will strive to make that work on more Insignia TV's as much as possible.

You know when something comes around and sets the standard? And, you wish you would have used it first? This is it, right here. Whoever coded this app knew what they were doing. It’s stylish and it works. It’s feature rich and so so pretty. I’ve used several apps and this one blows them all away. I love this app. Chef’s kiss!
