I tried a lot of TV remote apps and hit a paywall on every one — the volume buttons locked, ads before you can change the channel, or a forced login just to connect. So I made AnyRemote, a free universal TV remote app with everything unlocked. No paywall, no login, and no full-screen ads — just one small banner at the bottom that stays out of your way.

A – What problem it solves:
It replaces your lost, broken, or missing TV remote by turning your phone into a full universal remote — and unlike most alternatives, every button and feature is free.

B – Why it's better than alternatives:
Apps like this lock the essentials behind a paywall or bury you in full-screen ads. AnyRemote keeps every core feature free, with only a single non-intrusive banner.

Features:

Full button control — volume, channels, mute and every essential button from your original remote.

Turn TV on/off — power your Smart TV on and off straight from your phone.

D-Pad navigation — move through menus and apps with a responsive directional pad.

Smooth touchpad — highly responsive for fast, precise navigation on your TV.

Keyboard input — type search terms and logins from your phone instead of the painful on-screen keyboard.

Voice control — search and command your TV hands-free.

Playback controls — pause, rewind and fast-forward your content with ease.

App launch buttons — open your favorite TV apps with a single tap.

Auto-reconnect — reconnects to your TV automatically so you're not re-pairing every time.

Screen mirroring — mirror your phone's screen onto the TV for a bigger display.

📺 Supports most major TV brands & streaming devices:
Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL, Hisense, Philips, Vizio, Roku, Xiaomi TV, Android TV, Google TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Fire TV Stick, Roku Streaming Stick, Google TV Streamer, NVIDIA Shield TV, Apple TV, and more.

C – Cost:
Completely free. No paywall on any feature, no forced login. Supported by a single small banner ad — no full-screen or interrupting ads.

Would love feedback — tell me your TV brand and whether the connection feels fast enough, and let me know what you'd want added.
