Control your receiver from your iPhone, or automate it with Siri Shortcuts. Volume, zones, inputs, now-playing — 100% local. Companion to our Mac app. Magic AV Remote is a fast, focused iPhone app for controlling Pioneer, Onkyo, and Denon home-theater receivers — full transport, tone, zone, and metadata control from your pocket, with no separate remote in hand. It speaks fluently to receivers across the major control protocols used in the home-theater market over the last decade — modern eISCP, legacy Pioneer Telnet, and Denon — and gives you a single interface that adapts to whichever feature set your connected receiver actually supports. No shimming, no guessing. CORE CONTROL • Power & volume — one-tap power, precise dB-accurate volume readout, smooth press-and-hold ramping, mute with visible state • Input selection — full input picker with 40+ source types; custom names you've set on the receiver are read back and displayed • Listening modes — browse and apply surround/listening modes, with the current mode reflected live as the receiver updates • Tone & EQ — bass, treble, and equalizer bands where supported; the panel stays out of the way when your receiver doesn't expose them • Channel level metering — per-speaker display with individual trim, so you can dial in a room without hunting for the remote • Multi-zone — independent control of the main zone, Zone 2, and Zone 3, each tracked separately NOW PLAYING • Live metadata — track title and artist from network sources (AirPlay, streaming services) appear in real time as the receiver reports them • Album art — when your receiver makes it available over the network, jacket art appears alongside the track info • Transport controls — play, pause, skip, and source-specific commands routed to whichever zone is actually streaming SIRI SHORTCUTS & AUTOMATION Every core action — power, volume, mute, input selection, and player transport — is exposed as a native Shortcuts action, zone-aware where it applies. Chain them into routines, trigger them by voice with Siri, run them on a schedule, or fire them from an Automation (arrive home, tap an NFC tag, sunset) — no need to open the app at all. BUILT FOR IPHONE • Per-receiver themes — pick from curated presets (Onyx, Pearl, Ember, Ruby, Amber, Citrine, Spectrolite, Opal); each saved receiver remembers its own theme • Network discovery — receivers on your local network are detected automatically; save them with friendly names and the app handles IP changes and reconnects • Resilient connections — automatic reconnection and clear failure reporting mean the app behaves predictably even after your phone locks or the app goes to the background PRIVACY 100% local. No telemetry, no analytics, no accounts, no cloud. Magic AV Remote talks to your receiver on your local network and to nothing else — nothing about you, your usage, or what you're listening to is ever collected or transmitted anywhere. ALSO ON MAC Magic AV Remote is also available for Mac, built on the same engine — control the same receivers from your desktop, with multi-window and always-on-top modes suited to a bigger screen. WHAT'S NEXT We're actively expanding hardware support — more receiver brands and models are on the way. Have a request? Email us at help@magicavremote.com.
