Remote control apps are applications that can help you navigate through android and iOS gadgets from the phone. The applications can control televisions, smart devices and also PCs. There are lots of applications available on Playstore and the Apple Store. Some are free apps, whereas others require a small subscription fee to start up. The variety gives you a chance to choose what works well with your device.

Remote control apps have top-notch features. These features can be customised for them to work more efficiently. These customisations include the following.

Compatibility with All Devices

All the remote control apps available can only be used to control smart devices. This means that if the TV or PC you want to navigate through is not a smart device, then you can’t control it with the available apps. Software developers responsible for such apps should customise them to be compatible with all kinds of devices.

Enabling Remote Control Apps to Work Without an Internet Connection

For you to use the remote control app on your phone to navigate through the device you want, both of them have to be connected on the same network. The connection is wireless, something to applaud the developers about. The connection can be made via a WI-FI network or a mobile hotspot. Both attract some costs hence incurring an extra expense when controlling. The apps can be customised to work without a connection or maybe an alternative connection that is cheaper or free.

Install the Infrared Blaster on All Phones

The IR blaster is a device installed on phones to enable it to be used as a remote control device. Your phone cannot control a device without the blaster. Phone-making companies should make all phones with the IR blaster so that it can work. Currently, only a few phones have blasters.
