Description

Control your television using your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro or HomePod with the TV Remote app.


* As featured on 9to5Mac, MacRumors, MacStories, TechCrunch & more*


TV Remote combines a beautiful and simple interface with advanced features that enable you to control your television without the need for a physical remote. Add all of your televisions to TV Remote and you’ll be able to customize the layout, apply themes and interact through Widgets and Siri Shortcuts.


TV Remote contains these great features:

UNIVERSAL REMOTE

TV Remote supports many brands of TVs (see below) and makes it easy for you to setup each one in a single app. You’ll find the buttons you’re used to seeing and there’s even the ability to launch apps and switch sources too.


INTERACTIVE WIDGETS

Remote commands can be added to your Home Screen or Lock Screen for quick access to your remote when you need it. There’s supports for launching apps, sources and changing channels all from a Widget too and with Interactive Widgets, you won't even need to open the app!


SIRI SHORTCUTS

Without even opening the app, you’ll be able to perform commands, change channels, launch apps and more with the Siri Shortcuts integration! For example, you’ll be able to configure a string of commands together to change a specific setting on your TV without even lifting a finger.


LIVE ACTIVITIES

Get access to a set of configured commands on your Lock Screen or Dynamic Island that allows you to quickly change channels, adjust volume and much more - all without opening the app!


CUSTOM LAYOUTS

TV Remote gives you the ability to fully customize how you want the remote for each TV to look. Using a set of pre-configured layout components, you’ll be able to choose which buttons go where so you get the exact look you’re after.


THEMES

Gone are the days of a plain remote! With TV Remote, you can be bold and design the exact look and feel of your television remote - even down to the icon tint on a button, and whether buttons are round or square. Each television has its own theme and there are plenty of presets to choose from too. You can even lock the app to light/dark mode.


KEYBOARD

No need to use arrow keys to navigate round an on-screen keyboard. With TV Remote, you’ll have access to a full keyboard you can use to search for programmes and more!


CHANNELS, APPS & SOURCES

TV Remote will load the available channels, apps and sources available on your television and allow you to launch them with just a tap.


WAKE FROM SLEEP

TV Remote supports Wake-on-LAN to allow you to power on your television when it is asleep.


TOUCHPAD

Control your television using swipe gestures on a touchpad instead of the standard directional keypad for a more fluid experience.


SYNCING

TV Remote syncs with your iCloud account to allow you to access your TVs across all your devices.

Gute App mit Potential

Die App ist sehr einfach aufgebaut und funktioniert auch ziemlich gut, aber leider arbeitet sie nicht 100%ig mit meinem LG C9 zusammen.
Ich habe an dem C9 einen Sky Receiver angeschlossen und diesen steuere ich mit meiner LG Fernbedienung, was auch sehr gut funktioniert.
Mit der App kann ich alles steuern, nur geht das Umschalten und pausieren nicht immer.
Ich muss den Fernseher dann wieder löschen, neu verbinden und dann funktioniert das wieder für einen kurzen Moment.

Hi, I believe it’s already being handled via email. Thank you for taking the time to leave a good review though! :)

Wieder alles gut. Sehr gute Fernbedienung

Mit der neuen Version 2.0 gab es zunächst Probleme für Bestandskunden. Der Entwickler hat aber innerhalb von zwei Tagen reagiert. Jetzt läuft alles wieder prima! Ich nutze die App schon über ein Jahr und bin sehr zufrieden. In der neuen Version wurden auch die Widgets verbessert. Das ist ein großer Gewinn. Im Widget lassen sich die gewünschten Befehle individuell auswählen. Und das Beste: nach Ausführung eines Widget-Befehls öffnet sich die App nur kurz, führt die gewünschte Aktion kurz aus und danach ist man auch schon wieder auf dem Homescreen des iPhones/iPads. Klare Empfehlung. Ich habe noch keine bessere Remote-App für LG im AppStore entdeckt.

Hi, 

Sorry about this, existing users were supposed to have access to the features they’d already paid for but unfortunately a bug prevented this from happening which only occurred on the production version of the app as it was impossible to test prior.

With version 2.0.3, you should now have access to the features you paid for previously and there is also an option to upgrade to a lifetime version for the new features at a discounted rate as a thank you.

Sorry for this inconvenience, it was never my intention!

Thanks,
Adam

Hey, Leute: super Support! Weil

ich eben überlegte, ob ich nur 4 Sterne gebe, weil ich nach zwei Tagen Testen feststellte, dass sich die App von selbst nicht wieder neu verbindet, wenn man die App gewechselt hat. (Und was anderes*)
Und dann sehe ich, dass ein Update zur Verfügung steht und genau dieses Problem unter anderem behoben wird!

Der Entwickler ist also am Ball. Super!

Dann fehlt noch, dass man nicht nur einen Kanal von 0-9 vorgeben kann, welchen man schnell daraus starten kann, sondern auch einen „source“-Chanel, damit ich direkt auf HDMI 1,2 etc. springen kann.

Der Entwickler antwortete mir aber bereits darauf, dass er da dran ist!

Fun fact: die app arbeitet um Welten besser als die eigene Smart App von Samsung, welche sehr lange braucht, bis sie reagiert.

Diese App hier erinnert vom Prinzip stark an die Remote App von Apple für den Apple TV. Und genau so gut reagiert sie auch. Als wäre alles vom selben System oder Entwickler.

Die App verdient definitiv mehr Sterne. Vielleicht NOCH keine 5. aber der Entwickler ist offensichtlich dabei und dies erfolgreich. Die App jedenfalls funktioniert sehr gut mit Sternchen. Der Aufbau ist übersichtlich.
Die Übersetzungsfehler sind jetzt nicht so wichtig. Deutsch ist eh ne blöde Sprache.
Und wenn man das Widget noch besser einstellen kann, dann ist es perfekt.

Thank you very much for the positive review! Improvements to some of the German translations should now be available :)
