Use your phone as your remote
With a remote built right into the app, you can find something great to watch even when the couch has eaten your remote. And you can use your phone’s keyboard to quickly type complicated passwords, movie names or search terms on your Google TV or other Android TV OS device.

Ratings and reviews

Overall, this is a good app. My primary complaint is with the remote. There is a scenario (which happens frequently) where I leave the remote open until the screen locks. When I unlock the screen, the unlock pattern and/or fingerprint reader is in the same place as the remote. My finger is on the screen as the phone unlocks and I inadvertently, yet unavoidably, press a button on the remote (usually the home button), interrupting whatever is playing on the TV.

quite possibly the buggiest app Google has. remote functionality randomly disappears or doesn't work. I watched a movie days ago and it still shows on my media controls. edit: I'm not entering an endless support chat again. I've learned my lesson multiple times there. maybe you can just fix the problem instead of making me do more work?

I love this app, but the latest update has absolutely ruined my Google TV Remote functionality. It's become horrendously unreliable. Edit: I have provided this feedback. Thank you. I was having the issue on my pixel fold, and it continues on my pixel 8 pro. Hopefully this is fixed soon. Thanks! I've provided feedback in the app for weeks. The issue still occurs and had made the software remote worthless.
