Been using the Universal TV Remote Control app for a couple months now. It’s basically an all-in-one remote that lets you control your Roku, Samsung, LG, Sony, and pretty much any other TV brand right from your phone. Pretty solid app if you’re always losing the actual remote around the house.
Here’s what you do: you can pair the app with your TV via WiFi or Bluetooth and then use your phone to change channels, adjust the volume, and even navigate smart TV menus. There’s also voice controls, which is pretty cool. And you can set up custom button layouts – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful.
Look, if you’ve got a bunch of different TVs in your home, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the setup can be a bit finicky sometimes – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you’re tired of juggling a million remotes.
