Apps – Android Authority
The IR blaster is officially a niche feature these days. It’s becoming rarer and rarer as a feature since phones are trying to remove as many ports as possible. However, those with an IR blaster are useful for all kinds of little things. One such instance is as a remote control for basically anything with an IR receiver. That can include TVs, air conditioners, some thermostats, cameras, and other such things. Today, let’s talk about TV remotes. Here are the best TV remote apps for Android.
Please note, most ecosystems provide their own remote apps these days. LG TVs have LG-made remote apps. Samsung does the same as well and so does Google, Apple, Vizio, Roku, and most others. Before you start reading, we honestly recommend the remote app made by the manufacturer of the thing you’re trying to control. Also, modern Android phones don’t come with IR sensors anymore and that’s how a lot of these worked on older TVs. Your mileage will vary by a rather wide margin.
