TV Remote Remote Control app for Android description

TV Remote

TV Remote turns your Android TV into a self-hosted web remote that any device on your local network can control — phone, tablet, laptop — without installing any app on the controller device.

HOW IT WORKS

The app runs a tiny HTTP server (port 8080) directly on your TV. Open http://:8080 in any browser and you get a full remote control interface. Input is injected via ADB loopback — the app connects to the TVs own ADB daemon at 127.0.0.1:5555, so no root is required.

FEATURES

D-pad navigation (up, down, left, right, OK/Enter)
Back, Home, Menu buttons
Volume up / down / mute
Power / sleep toggle
Channel up / down rocker + numeric keypad (0–9)
Keyboard text input — type into any focused field on the TV
Google Assistant launch
Works from any browser on the same LAN — no app needed on the controller

PRIVACY

Completely local. No data leaves your network. No accounts, no telemetry, no analytics, no ads.

REQUIREMENTS

Android TV or Google TV device (Android 8.0+)
Developer Options enabled on the TV
ADB over network enabled (TCP/IP mode, port 5555)
Both the TV and the controller must be on the same LAN

The app starts automatically on boot and runs as a foreground service to stay alive when the TV is in use.
