Hi All, wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a FOSS Android/Google TV remote control app? My phone doesn't support IR so looking for a remote control app that can connect via Wifi. TIA!

I looked for this 'android remote app' but a lot of options came up when searching for it. Would you be able to tell me the name of the developer please, or send me a direct download link? Thanks in advance!

yeah Google removed it and merged it into android tv/movies app but you can still sideload the old one (you can find it online)

Thanks! I think I found it online but whichever apk I download throws an error message 'this app is not compatible with your phone' when trying to install it. I'll keep looking for one that works 👍🏻.
