Lost the remote? Broken buttons? TV Remote turns your phone into a full remote control for Android TV and Google TV — a real D-pad, a volume rocker that shows the TV's actual volume, your phone keyboard for typing, voice search, and one-tap casting of your own photos, music and video.
It pairs in seconds over your own Wi-Fi. No account, no sign-up, no server.
★ WORKS WITH ANDROID TV & GOOGLE TV
Sony, Philips, TCL, Hisense, Sharp, Xiaomi and other Android TV sets, Chromecast with Google TV, NVIDIA SHIELD TV, Mi Box and similar Android TV boxes and sticks.
★ EASY PAIRING
• Automatic Wi-Fi discovery — every Android TV on your network, listed by name
• Six-character on-screen code, then you are done, once per TV
• Add a TV by IP address — always available, never locked
• Remembers your TV even when your router changes its IP address
• Reconnects on its own after a router reboot
• Demo mode — try the whole remote with no TV at all
★ A REMOTE THAT FEELS LIKE A REMOTE
• Large D-pad ring with a centre OK, usable one-handed and in the dark
• Hold-to-repeat for long lists, plus haptic feedback on every press
• Touchpad page — swipe to move, tap to select
• Number keypad page — digits 0-9 for channels and PIN entry
• Volume up/down, mute, channel keys, back, home and power
• Use your phone's hardware volume buttons to control the TV
• Dark and light themes, or follow your system
★ TYPE AND TALK — NO MORE HUNT AND PECK
• Keyboard input — type Wi-Fi passwords, logins and searches with your own keyboard
• Paste from your password manager in one tap
• Voice search — hold the mic, say a title, and it lands in the TV's search box
• Search on TV, typed or spoken, without navigating there first
★ APP SHORTCUTS
Launch Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney+ and more straight on the TV from four shortcuts you choose and reorder yourself.

Your files are served straight from your phone over your Wi-Fi. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
★ WIDGET & QUICK SETTINGS

• Quick Settings tile in your notification shade (free)
★ AUTOMATIONS (PRO)
• Sleep timer — fall asleep to a film and let the TV switch itself off
• Wake TV — a wake-on-LAN packet for sets that support it
FREE VS PRO
Free is a complete, credible remote. Discovery, pairing, unlimited pairings, the whole D-pad, volume, power, typing, voice search, app shortcuts, layout and behaviour settings, both themes, photo and music casting and two saved TVs are free forever.
TV Remote Pro is one payment of $1.99 — no subscription, no renewal. It removes all ads and unlocks video casting, Now Playing controls, screen mirroring, the home-screen widget, unlimited saved TVs and automations.
PRIVACY
The remote works entirely on your local network. Your TVs, your key presses and your files never leave your home. There is no account, no analytics backend and no tracking. On the free tier the app requests ads from Google; that is the only thing in it that touches the internet.
WHAT IT DOES NOT WORK WITH
Roku, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS and Amazon Fire TV use different protocols and are not supported. Infrared blaster models are not supported either — this is a Wi-Fi remote. Your phone and TV must be on the same Wi-Fi network; it does not work over mobile data.
NEED HELP?
Built-in diagnostics tell you plainly what the app can and cannot see on your network, and the in-app FAQ is written for the failures that actually happen. Or email a human: support@gamifyapps.com
