About this app

Control your Apple TV from your Android phone or tablet.

Remote for Apple TV gives you two ways to control your TV: use a network remote over your local Wi-Fi network, or use an infrared remote on phones with a built-in IR blaster. It is designed for quick everyday control, pairing, app launching, keyboard input and media casting.

Key features:
- Traditional Apple TV remote style layout
- Full remote layout with extra controls & customizable buttons
- Touch-style navigation buttons: up, down, left, right and select
- Back, TV / Control Center, Menu, Play / Pause and Mute controls
- Volume and channel controls
- Keyboard input for easier text entry
- App list with shortcuts for popular streaming apps
- Cast local files or media URLs to Apple TV
- Light, dark and system theme options
- Network remote control for supported Apple TV devices
- Infrared remote mode for phones with an IR transmitter
- Simple device discovery and pairing
- Manual add by IP address when discovery is not available

This app is useful if your physical Apple TV remote is missing, broken, out of battery, or simply not nearby. You can open apps, control playback, enter text, adjust volume and stream media from your Android device.

Network remote mode requires your Android device and Apple TV to be on the same local Wi-Fi network. Available controls may depend on your Apple TV model, tvOS version and enabled services. Infrared mode requires an Android device with a built-in IR blaster.

Remote for Apple TV is an independent remote control app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Apple Inc. Apple TV is trademark of Apple Inc.

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.

Remotes go missing all the time or broken even, Apple knows this and their only solution is to spend more money. This is more reason why I don't buy apple products anymore. Aside from that, this app works great and did exactly everything I needed!
