If you're looking for a remote app that's actually a lot more than a simple remote app, then you may really enjoy the Samsung WatchON On TV app for the Android OS, due to its full-featured layout and the many different options you have available at your fingertips.
A Review of the Samsung WatchON On TV App for Android
There are many different apps out there that can allow you to use your Android mobile devices as a remote control to control your television, your DVD player, Blu-Ray, and other entertainment features, but most only have a limited range in terms of brand compatibility. The Samsung WatchON On TV is a lot different in this regard. Although it does have Samsung in the name, you can actually use it to control a broad range of devices, like LG, Vizio, Sony, and many more. The basic idea for an app like this is that it allows you to put all those other remote controls in storage. You have a TV remote, a cable remote, a DVD remote, a stereo remote, etc. And not only do remotes get lost regularly, but they also require expensive batteries to operate. Put them inside the drawer and instead use your phone or tablet to control your entertainment.
Perhaps the best part about this app is that you're not just getting basic channel and volume controls. You can create favorites lists, access Smart TV features right from your devices, and much more. It works the best with Samsung Smart-model televisions, but there's so much more that this app can actually do.
