Hi
I am looking for an app that will use the IR blaster in the phone, but can be programmed like a Harmony remote.
The included WatchOn App is good, but is limited to specific setups.
-Thanks
Smart remote. You can even import hex files from harmony if you want. $10 but works great. Can do macros also. Get it at the play store.

Thanks is there something else that is less pricey?
Not as of yet. That is the only app I have found. Let me know if you find anything.

I have been looking into this for the past week or so, and so far, I have not found any app that can do this.
There is a PS3 Controller application (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en), but it doesn't quite replicate or control the ps4 like the media remote, I think.
Hope this is helpful to you.
I think he meant using the s4 as a remote for the ps3 not using the ps3's controller on the s4?
And I have no clue how to do this

Just wondering what other devices you guys are using your note 3 to control. I didn't even know you could use it for things other than a TV. In the xda YouTube video review of the note 3, the reviewer mentioned he was using his note to control the camera he was using to record.

It can control anything that uses IR to receive signals and messages.
How can you use it for other things? Only options in the watch on app are Tvs and top boxes

What would you like it to do?
Of course, I use it with:
My TV's
My Dish Sets
My Projector
My Nikon
And right now I'm in the works of making my garage door work as well.
PD. I recommend using the smart remote app instead of the watchon one.

What app are you using ?
This small addon is one of the major reasons I will upgrade from note 2. Anyone tried controlling AC ?

I haven't tried with mine cause it's not working since last week (yeah I keep forgetting to fix it). Will report in this thread later if you want.

Best one I've found so far. Simple and quick.
The Watch On app is the one that came with your phone with a fuscia icon and a tv BUT if your signature is right your phone doesn't have an IR Blaster nor this Samsung app

Just started looking into using the IR and noticed that app you pointed to is on sale this Easter.
I am using this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=remote.control.samsung
It works with my TV, BD player, Settop box(Tata sky)
Does anyone know of an IR app that will work other than the LG one ? Im running CM but I would love to have the remote function back. Thank you

IR is not just an app. It needs to be supported in the framework first.

I'm wondering about this too. Would Unified Remote work since it has IR functions now? I may just buy it and check because it's a great app regardless but if anyone knows of an alternative that does work with CyanogenMod I'd like to hear about it.

Read above, no IR app is going to work on any AOSP ROM at this point.
That's unfortunate. Back to stock I go then.

Doesn't the HTC One Google play edition have an IR remote app? (that is a question. I don't know)
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The HTC One Google Play edition does have an IR blaster app, but as stated previously no app can fix this - it is something that needs to be added into CM first.

I recently installed CM to my Tab Z and I'm looking for a good Remote Control app. I loved the IR blaster on this thing.
There is a thread about this in ZL forums, I guess

The app constantly tells me to update it... Not the best looking app either. I'm surprised no one has ported Sony's IR app
The only thing I miss from my Samsung is the Watchon app. I have loaded it on my G2 but of course the remote doen not work. Even the HTC M8 that I test rode for a week before returning it have a TV app built in like Watchon. Does anyone know of a similar app that will work on the G2 that gives a channel guild and working remote? Thanks for any leads.
I've been looking for something like that also for awhile and still haven't found anything that works like watchon. I'll keep looking until something comes up.
Maybe this.

That is the very same watchon app. Doesn't work though. Already tried.
