UniMote is a utility for Android that transforms your smartphone into a universal remote control for almost any television. This application works with both Smart TVs and Android TVs as well as supports control of traditional TV devices via an infrared port.
This mobile software is compatible with most TV models, including LG, Samsung, Sony, Hisense, Panasonic, and many others.
Requirements
In order to begin controlling modern Smart TV devices, it is necessary to connect both the television and the smartphone to the same WiFi network. In case you are willing to work with regular TV receivers, you have to use a smartphone with a built-in IR port, similar to Remote Control For DSTV.
Control
Upon installation, this utility searches for a compatible TV device and establishes a connection with it. The home page includes remote controls. Here, you can find buttons for turning the TV on and off, switching channels, adjusting volume, launching the TV guide, as well as accessing the menu.
There is a separate tab with a digital keyboard that offers you to search for channels by number and name.
You can access advanced functions of the utility, such as screen mirroring and casting the smartphone display’s content to the TV. It is possible to transmit video, audio files, and images. It is worth noting that all mentioned functions are paid.
