This application is a virtual remote control that allows you to control your connected TV (Smart TV) from your smartphone. The app is completely free and can replace your standard TV remote control.

The app supports the biggest TV brands like Samsung Smart TV (2014 H series, 2015 J series, 2016 K series, 2017 Q M series, 2018 N series, 2019+), LG WebOs, Sony Bravia (XBR, KD, KDL), Philips (xxPFL5xx6 - xxPFL9xx6), Panasonic, Telefunken and Grundig.

To use your remote control, your smartphone/tablet must be on the same Wi-Fi network as your TV. Detection of your TV will be automatic and, depending on the model of your TV, you will have to accept the message that will appear on your TV screen. Since the app works on your home network, you do not have to be close to the TV.

In addition to the faithful visual representation of the remote control, you can use all the functions of the remote control very simply.

Here is a list of the available functions:
- Increase/decrease the volume
- Change the channel

- Use the functions of the media player
