About this app

Lost or broken amplifier remote? Turn your phone into one in seconds.

Amplifier Remote is a universal remote control for stereo amplifiers, AV receivers, home cinema systems, soundbars, hi-fi separates and micro systems. It uses your phone's built-in infrared (IR) blaster to send the very same signals as the original remote, so it works offline — no Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, no pairing, no account.

Pick your brand, tap the remote that responds, and you are done.

★ 220+ BRANDS, 670+ REMOTES
A built-in IR code database covering amplifiers and receivers worldwide, including Yamaha, Denon, Onkyo, Marantz, Pioneer, Kenwood, Sony, JVC, Philips, Harman Kardon, Bose, JBL, Teac, Luxman, Aiwa, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Edifier and hundreds more.

★ NO SETUP HEADACHES
Pick your brand and the app lists every remote it knows for it — Remote 1, Remote 2, Remote 3. Tap the red test button on each one until your amplifier reacts, then open it. One remote? It opens straight away.

★ A VOLUME KNOB, NOT A TINY BUTTON
The volume control fills the middle of the screen: a glowing ring with a level readout, big − and + on either side, and mute one tap away in the Quick panel.

★ SWITCH SOURCES INSTANTLY
Colour-coded input tiles for CD, AUX, Tuner, Bluetooth, USB, DVD, TV, Tape, VCR, Video and Game — only the ones your receiver actually has, so you never hunt through a menu.

★ SOUND THE WAY YOU LIKE IT
Bass, Treble and Center − / + rows, plus EQ, Surround, Stereo, Mode, Effect, Movie, Music, Night and Subwoofer tiles when your model supports them.

★ TUNER AND PLAYBACK
Tuning and Preset − / + with Band and Memory for radio, and a full transport row (play, pause, stop, rewind, fast forward, previous, next, repeat) for disc and USB playback. Arrow pad, menu and number pad appear when your receiver has an on-screen menu.

★ SAVE YOUR REMOTES
Keep the living room receiver, the bedroom system and the garage amp side by side. Rename them any time.

IMPORTANT — DOES YOUR PHONE HAVE AN IR BLASTER?
This app needs a phone with built-in infrared hardware. Many Xiaomi, Redmi, POCO, Realme, Honor, Huawei, Samsung Galaxy (older models), TCL and Vivo phones have one; most recent iPhones and Pixels do not. The app tells you on the home screen if your phone has no IR blaster. It cannot control an amplifier over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

HOW TO USE
1. Open the app and pick your amplifier brand.
2. Point the top edge of your phone at the front panel of the amplifier.
3. Tap the test button on each remote in the list until it responds.
4. Open that remote and save it. That's it.

TIPS
- Aim at the display window on the front panel, where the sensor sits.
- If some keys work and others don't, switch to another remote for the same brand with the CHANGE button.

PRIVACY
No account, no sign-up, no personal data collection. Your saved remotes stay on your phone. The app shows ads to stay free, and asks for your consent choices where the law requires it — you can change them any time from the Privacy button on the home screen.

DISCLAIMER
Amplifier Remote is an independent universal remote application. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or otherwise connected to any audio or electronics manufacturer. All company names, brand names, product names and trademarks mentioned in this listing or shown inside the app belong to their respective owners and are used only to describe which devices the infrared codes can control.

The app works only through the infrared (IR) blaster built into your phone. It cannot control a device over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or the internet, and it will not work on a phone without IR hardware. Manufacturers use different code sets across models, regions and production years, so a receiver may answer only some keys, or none. Try the other remotes for your brand with CHANGE before leaving a review — that solves most cases.

Free, lightweight, and built to replace the remote you can never find.
