Hello
I would like to know if there is any app for Desire with which i could use my desire as remote control for my PC (via bluetooth?)... espacially Volume up down or Play/Pause on VLC/PowerDVD/Media Player
thx
gMote claims to be a remote control program. I am not sure that it works via Bluetooth though.
VLC Remote is really good. Use it all the time on my Linux and Windows machines.
VLC gets my vote!
Hi you can remote control your mac from Iphone using actymac. com ActyMac DutyWatch Remote.
Media player classic has it's remote control app which works great for me.

I've used several apps for this feature but I always go back to myRemote. It's main function is as a Windows media remote but it functions perfectly well in normal Windows as a trackpad + keyboard

I use PhoneMyPC - i find it a great app, and very fast + only a few KBytes to download.
Hi there just wondered if anyone has come across an app that allows the Desire to mimic a PS3 bluetooth remote, just thinking it would mean one less remote cluttering up the sofa
Cheers

From what I've seen the only option at the moment is Pocket Blu however that sucks as it only works with Pocket Blu enabled Bluray discs. If you do find something I'd be most interested.
Hi,
You can try original "BD Remote for Android" from Sony I use it to control my blu ray BDV-F500 via WiFi.
Thanks RFX, but "BD Remote for Android" is not designed for PS3 acording to the app store but will give it a go tonight.
Cheers akirainblack, i will check it out
I've found this browser https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lex.com.webbrowser&hl=en which should work well with the aftv remote control.
Did anybody try that ?
Does anybody have the apk to sideload, cause I can't find a way to download it
I think the best way to use a browser on the FTV is in combination with a remote app or keyboard mouse combo

You can install it in your phone, then use agk fire to push it to the AFTV stick.
I'm currently using Firefox and it works ok with the mouse toggle app.

Any decent IR blaster / universal rmote control app to make use of this feature in the G4?
I found only the TV Kill app on F-Droid, which works, but it can only turn TVs off.
There are lots of universal remote apps on Google Play / Aurora store, but they have unbelievable amounts of trackers and unnecessary permissions according to exodus https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/ for what should be a relatively simple and unobtrusive app.
Nobody?
So far the best I've found is IR Remote Control: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jw.ir.remote.control
It hasn't been updated since 2016, has limited device support, and has a somewhat cramped UI, but it actually works and isn't full of trackers and requires few permissions.
I hope there is something better out there, but for now I guess it's good enough.
I've been using this app for years. It works great and has good layout customization abilities.

Thanks for the suggestion.
There are a couple of issues:
The permissions required seem excessive: https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/9458/
It does not install for me on /e/ and microg saying there is no billing permission.
I actually, all remote control apps, I have used before was not as good as the standard universal remote controls. With their help, you can control TVs, consoles, DVD players, audio systems, and other devices. As I've read here https://themybuy.com/best-universal-remote-control/ such controls as Logitech Harmony Ultimate can work with nearly 200k entertainment and smart home devices. Speaking about apps, I have not found such applications yet that can work with so many devices. Also, they are hard in installment and configuration. But it is my opinion.
Hi All,
Need quick help from you all.....
I was working on making a universal Alexa-operated IR remote control with which one can control any device present at home.
Currently, I am able to control TVs (using RC5 protocol) and music systems (using NEX protocol).
But I am facing a lot of difficulties in decoding the AC remote control. (My observation is that AC remote is sending a lot of data as compared to a normal remote control)
can anyone help/guide me in with AC remotes?

I my opinion If I was on your place I would go with Logitech harmony as it has amazing features and easy to control.
This thread is about an app for the IR blaster on phones, not dedicated remote controls.
There is a new app option on F-Droid, creatively named IR Remote:
IR Remote | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
IR TV Remote
f-droid.org
It's not perfect as there are currently some bugs and some buttons do not work correctly, but it is serviceable, and bug reports could make it better. Seems like the cleanest/safest option so far.
