Full description
Meet CouchKey - the simple, modern remote for your smart TVs and streaming devices. Connect over Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth and control compatible devices without hunting through the couch cushions for the original remote. SUPPORTED DEVICES • Roku players and Roku TVs • Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick • Samsung Tizen and select older Samsung TVs • LG webOS and LG NetCast TVs • VIZIO SmartCast TVs • Sony BRAVIA TVs • Chromecast and Google Cast devices • DLNA media players • Kodi media centers • Android TV, Google TV, Onn and other compatible Bluetooth devices FEATURES • Automatic nearby-device discovery • Simple on-screen pairing • Responsive navigation and media controls • Keyboard and voice-to-text input • Touchpad control on compatible devices • Installed-app shortcuts for supported platforms • Cast photos and videos to Google Cast and DLNA devices • Save multiple TVs and streaming devices • Detailed device names, models and network information • Manual connection option when discovery is unavailable • Clean, modern dark interface • No account required FREE WITHOUT FEATURE LOCKS Every supported remote, device, keyboard, touchpad and casting feature is available for free. CouchKey uses small banner ads only on non-control screens. Ads never cover remote buttons, interrupt pairing or appear over the keyboard or touchpad. An optional $0.99/month subscription removes ads and supports continued development. It does not unlock additional features because everything is already included. PRIVACY-FOCUSED Your saved devices, private network addresses and pairing information remain in app-private storage. CouchKey does not upload your remote activity or TV list to a CouchKey account. IMPORTANT Your phone and TV normally need to be connected to the same Wi‑Fi network. Available controls vary by TV model, operating system, firmware and Bluetooth support. CouchKey does not use an IR blaster and is designed for smart TVs and connected streaming devices.

What's new

Added eight-language support with automatic phone-language detection, persistent language selection, and English fallback. Improved connection errors, pairing recovery, Bluetooth reliability, LG controls, and Cast stability. Fixed a production startup crash and polished overall performance.
