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://<tv-ip>:8080 in any browser and you get a full remote control interface. Input is injected via ADB loopback — the app connects to the TV's 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.
