So here's my take on Smart TV Remote Control. I've tried a bunch of universal remote apps and this one's one of the better ones. The setup is easy, the interface is clean and intuitive, and it just works. And sure, the IR blaster can be a little finicky at times, but the WiFi connectivity makes up for that. Plus, being able to control my whole entertainment system from one app is super convenient. Definitely a big step up from juggling four different remotes. If you're tired of losing your TV remote, this is a great alternative.

Description

Been using Smart TV Remote Control for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that lets you control your TV using your phone. Pretty solid if you’re tired of juggling a bunch of remotes around.

Here’s what you can do: control the power, volume, channels, and input on your TV. There’s also a virtual numeric keypad which is super handy. And it’s got tons of device compatibility – works with Samsung, LG, Sony, Roku, and more. Took me a bit to get it set up but it’s pretty straightforward.

Look, if you’ve got a smart TV and you’re constantly misplacing the remote, this is worth checking out. It’s not perfect – sometimes the IR blaster doesn’t work as well as the physical remote. But overall it does the job and I find myself using it more than the actual remote these days.
