About this APK

TV (Apple) Remote Control is an app by Dev Null in the Video Players & Editors category, listed since at least April 2021. It includes native code only for ARM 64-bit, so it won't install on phones that can only run 32-bit apps.

Since version 1.3.3, the minimum Android version rose from 4.4 to 7.0. It asks for 11 permissions, none of them sensitive. Compared with version 1.3.9, it adds 1 new permission (“Change wifi multicast state”) and drops 2 (“View Wi-Fi connections” and “Control vibration”). The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Control your Apple TV from your Android phone or tablet. Remote for Apple TV gives you two ways to control your TV: use a network remote over your local Wi-Fi network, or use an infrared remote on phones with a built-in IR blaster. It is designed for quick everyday control, pairing, app launching, keyboard input and media casting. Key features: - Traditional Apple TV remote style layout - Full remote layout with extra controls & customizable buttons - Touch-style navigation buttons: up, down, left, right and select - Back, TV / Control Center, Menu, Play / Pause and Mute controls - Volume and channel controls - Keyboard input for easier text entry - App list with shortcuts for popular streaming apps - Cast local files or media URLs to Apple TV - Light, dark and system theme options - Network remote control for supported Apple TV devices - Infrared remote mode for phones with an IR transmitter - Simple device discovery and pairing - Manual add by IP address when discovery is not available This app is useful if your physical Apple TV remote is missing, broken, out of battery, or simply not nearby. You can open apps, control playback, enter text, adjust volume and stream media from your Android device. Network remote mode requires your Android device and Apple TV to be on the same local Wi-Fi network. Available controls may depend on your Apple TV model, tvOS version and enabled services. Infrared mode requires an Android device with a built-in IR blaster. Remote for Apple TV is an independent remote control app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Apple Inc.
