Universal Remote & Cast to TV

One app for the TV across the room No account, no cloud, no cable. Your phone and your TV just need the same Wi-Fi. ■ A REMOTE THAT FEELS LIKE ONE • Full remote — D-pad, volume, playback keys, number pad and colour keys • Touchpad: swipe to move, tap to select • Hold volume or channel keys to repeat, just like the real thing • Launch Netflix, YouTube or Prime Video, or browse everything installed on your TV • Switch HDMI inputs without hunting for the source button ■ TYPE AND TALK INSTEAD OF PECKING AT LETTERS • Type on the TV from your phone keyboard — logins, search boxes, Wi-Fi passwords • Or just speak, and your words land in the TV's search box Spelling a password with arrow keys is the worst part of any smart TV. This is the fix. ■ CAST WHAT IS ALREADY ON YOUR PHONE • Videos, photos and music, straight to the TV • Photos play as a slideshow on their own • Play queue with repeat and shuffle — the next item starts when one finishes • Playlists and a recently played list to pick up where you left off ■ SEND WEB VIDEO • Browse inside the app and send the video you find to your TV • YouTube links open in your TV's own app, at the right moment in the video ■ MIRROR YOUR SCREEN • Put your whole phone screen on the TV • Runs over your own Wi-Fi — no cable, no dongle to buy ■ WORKS WITH • Roku • Android TV / Google TV • Samsung (Tizen) • LG (webOS) • Sony (Bravia) • Amazon Fire TV • Vizio SmartCast • Any TV or box that speaks DLNA Not every device exposes every function: some can be remote-controlled, some can receive media, a few do both. SofaCast greys out what your TV does not support instead of pretending it works. ■ ZERO ADS WHERE IT MATTERS Other remote apps: Full-screen ad after a few key presses SofaCast: The remote and playback screens stay ad-free, always Ads appear only in the moments you are not operating your TV — never on the remote, never mid-playback. Remove them with a single purchase. No subscription, ever. Every remote key stays free, ads or not. ■ PRIVACY • Everything runs on your local network. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is tracked. • No sign-up, no account, no email • Voice input goes through your phone's own speech recognition — SofaCast never records audio and asks for no microphone permission ■ BEFORE YOU START 1. Phone and TV must be on the same Wi-Fi. A 5 GHz phone cannot see a 2.4 GHz TV. 2. Your router may have AP isolation (guest network) turned on. 3. The TV must be powered on, not in deep standby. 4. Some TVs ask you to approve the connection once, on the TV itself. Casting a file plays it on the TV directly, with no delay. Screen mirroring travels over Wi-Fi, so expect a short lag — fine for photos and slides, not for fast games. Available in 16 languages.
