For Samsung, LG, Roku, Fire TV
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
One remote for Roku, Samsung, LG, Fire TV, Android TV, Hisense VIDAA and Vizio. Finds your TV on Wi-Fi in seconds — no account, no setup. Touchpad and keyboard.
One remote for every TV in the house.
SmartCtrl finds Roku, Samsung, LG, Fire TV, Android TV / Google TV, Hisense VIDAA and Vizio devices on your Wi-Fi in seconds — no account, no setup — and gives you a full remote for each.
EVERY BUTTON, EVERY BRAND
• Navigation pad, OK, back, home, volume, mute, channel, play/pause
• Number keypad, inputs, settings and colour keys where your TV has them
• Quick launch for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney+ and more
TOUCHPAD
Swipe to move, tap to select. On LG the pad drives the Magic Remote cursor.
KEYBOARD
Type searches with your iPhone keyboard instead of the on-screen letter grid.
YOUR TV'S APPS
Every app installed on the TV, with its real icon. Star your favourites.
PAIR ONCE
Roku needs nothing. Samsung and LG ask once on the TV. Fire TV, Android TV, Hisense and Vizio show a code. After that it just works, every time.
WORKS ON YOUR WI-FI
Everything runs on your local network. No cloud, no account, nothing leaves your home.
PRO
Remove ads and unlock five themes — Liquid Glass, Aurora, Carbon, Studio — plus 3D relief keys.
Supported: Roku and Roku TV (TCL, Hisense, Sharp, Philips), Samsung Tizen (2016+), LG webOS (2014+), Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, Android TV and Google TV (Sony Bravia, TCL, Philips, Chromecast with Google TV, Nvidia Shield), Hisense VIDAA (and the Toshiba and Sharp sets that run it), Vizio SmartCast.

Ratings & Reviews
Two more TV brands — seven in total.
• Hisense VIDAA: full remote for Hisense TVs (and the Toshiba and Sharp sets that run VIDAA). Pair once with the code on screen, then it connects by itself.
• Vizio SmartCast: full remote, inputs and app launch for Vizio TVs.
• Sony Bravia and Google TV sets are now found on networks where the app used to miss them.
• The app is now called SmartCtrl everywhere, matching its name on the App Store.
As always: the whole remote is free. Thank you for the reviews — keep them coming, they decide what gets built next.
