About this app

Simple unofficial (this app is not in any way affiliated with the Apple Inc.) Apple TV IR remote control for Android phones and tablets with built-in IR blaster (Samsung Galaxy, HTC ONE, LG G2 etc). It's also compatible with other Apple devices with an infrared receiver (some MacBook Pro, iMac, iPod dock etc). The purpose is not to replace the original remote, but it is handy in emergency situations (original remote is lost, empty batteries etc).

★ Works with Samsung phones and tablets with built-in IR-blaster
★ Works with some phones with Android compatible built-in IR-blaster and Android 4.4 KitKat (like HTC ONE).
★ You must point your phone’s IR blaster directly at the TV. Usual working range is 5-10 (max ~15) ft.
★ No additional hardware is needed.
★ No need to jailbreak your Apple TV.
★ No full screen ads, no push notification ads or any kind of similar pop-up ads!

With some phones in power saving mode or with almost empty battery the IR blaster might not work or range is less then 5 ft.

If this app doesn't work with your phone then feel free to e-mail me (your exact phone model and Android version). Then I can try to add support for your phone/tablet.

Ratings and reviews

Great little app, lost the remote during the move and this app made it one less thing to clutter my home. Only two draw backs first not a big deal is the adverts which doesn't seem a way to avoid and 2nd is battery draining due to not letting my phone screen go off which is a simple thing for the creater to correct by adding in the setting if user always on or phone default screen saver and battery setting.

Not fully compatible with my device - it's the old style remote with only two buttons - but after trying half a dozen of apps that can display loads of ads but are completely useless communicating with my TV - that's the first one that actually works and isn't overwhelmed with ads.

IT WORKS, IT WORKS, IT WORKS ! ! ! Absolutely the best droid app for any apple device. it would be better worth ability to view like a. tv appa and also add apps to apple tv. i wish it also had hot buttons for other apps at the very least.
