In short

ADB Remote: TV Touchscreen turns an Android TV, Google TV or Android projector into a touchscreen controlled from an iPhone. It shows a live preview of the TV screen, supports typing with the iPhone keyboard, and includes a D-pad or touchpad remote. One standout feature is that the app collects no data and connects directly to the TV over Wi-Fi.

About

Lost the remote? Your iPhone is better.

ADB Remote turns your Android TV, Google TV or Android projector into a touchscreen. See the TV's screen live on your iPhone, tap anything to select it, swipe through rows, and type with your iPhone keyboard. A fast, haptic remote is always one tap away.

YOUR TV, NOW A TOUCHSCREEN • A live preview of the TV screen, right on your phone • Tap a poster, button or menu to select it • Swipe to move through rows; press and hold for more options • Full-screen mode: turn your phone sideways and the TV fills it

TYPE WITH YOUR IPHONE KEYBOARD • When a search box opens on the TV, your keyboard pops up automatically • Text already in the box comes along, so you can edit it instead of starting over • Clear the TV's text box in one tap

A REMOTE THAT FEELS RIGHT • D-pad or touchpad: pick classic arrows or swipe and tap like a modern TV remote • Back, Home, Menu, volume, mute, play/pause, rewind, fast-forward and power • Hold an arrow or volume button to repeat • A gentle haptic tap on every press • Near-instant response on many Android projectors

ONE-TAP APPS • Launch any app installed on your TV • Pin your favorites to the front, in the order you want

HEADPHONES IN TWO TAPS • Open your TV's Bluetooth settings from your phone and connect your earbuds to the TV, with lip sync handled by the TV

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics • Your phone talks directly to your TV on your Wi-Fi, and nothing else • The app collects no data

SETUP (ABOUT TWO MINUTES, ONCE) ADB Remote uses Android's built-in debugging connection (ADB), so your TV needs one setting turned on: 1. On the TV, open Settings > About and select Build number 7 times to unlock Developer options. 2. In Developer options, turn on USB debugging (and ADB over network, if listed). 3. Open ADB Remote on the same Wi-Fi. It finds your TV automatically. 4. On the TV's "Allow USB debugging?" prompt, tick Always allow and choose Allow.

Works with Android-based TVs, Google TV and Android TV devices, projectors and streaming boxes that support ADB debugging over the network (port 5555). Some features depend on your device and apps.
