Tv control from phone: In today’s digital age, smartphones are no longer a means of calling or using social media. It is now a mini-computer placed in your pocket, which can also control all the digital devices of the house. By installing the right apps, you can convert your phone into a powerful remote. Whether it is TV, AC, music system or smart home device, everything will now be at the behest of your fingers.

Easy to control TV and set-top box

Controlling TV and DTH set-top boxes through smartphones has now become very easy. Nowadays many phones have an IR Blaster feature, with the help of which your phone becomes a remote of TV or DTH directly. For this, a universal remote app has to be downloaded. This feature is already present in brands like Xiaomi and Vivo.

If your phone does not have an IR blaster, then there is nothing to worry about. You can download Wi-Fi based smart TV apps, with the help of which TV can be easily controlled. At the same time, if you have Android TV, Amazon Fire Stick, Chromecast or Apple TV, then your phone should simply install the app (Google Tv, Fire TV Remote or Apple TV Remote).

Smartphone as gaming controller

Not only TV and AC, your phone can now work like a gaming controller. With the help of some special apps, you can easily play games on PC or TV by using the phone like a gamepad.

Easy control of AC and electronics

Smartphones with IR blaster can not only control TV but also devices like air conditioner, smart fan, projector and sound system. In many apps, after selecting the brand of the device, your phone becomes a remote of the same device.

Music system and smart speakers

Bluetooth speakers and smart speakers can also be controlled directly from your phone. With the help of Sony Music Center, Bose Connect and JBL apps, phone volumes, play/pose and track change are easily done.

Smart home device control

Nowadays the trend of smart bulbs, smart plugs and smart cameras is increasing in homes. You can also control them with your phone. With the help of Google Home and Alexa apps, it is now easier than before doing light on-off, changing color or watching a live feed of the camera. The smartphone has now not just a phone, but also your smart remote, which gives full control on every device.
