Adding a device

Peel Smart Remote was initially launched in 2009. And in a few years, it gained 25 million users. These numbers grew more as its developers

collaborated

with various smartphone manufacturers and became a built-in app. The software then became one of the

most downloaded

smart remote

apps with a

user base of 70 million.

Like most smart remote apps, Peel Smart Remote

uses infrared blaster

, also known as IR blaster, to control all electronics. IR blaster is a

smartphone sensor

found in devices that emulates remotes of electronics, like a TV or A.C remote.

Upon launching the app, you only need to

select the brand

of the TV brand you want to control via your phone. You can also tap on the

Other Device

button if you need to add other appliances. Then, you need to

point your phone

towards the gadget and tap the power button to see if it is working. If it does, you can now freely use your Android device to control your appliances.

If the initial button does not work, keep checking for

alternative buttons

until you find a working one. You can also

add more devices

to a single device location by tapping the Plus button below your WiFi name.

Speaking of WiFi, Peel Smart Remote also works with phones without IR blaster. You only need to

use your WiFi

. However, there are

only a few devices

that can be controlled via WiFi. Also, the phone and the gadgets need to be

on the same network

for it to use.

What you get

When you download and install Peel Smart Remote, you will get a smart remote that is

easy to set up

and

easy to use

. You only need to confirm your location, choose your TV provider, and pair the app with all your home electronics. After that, you only have to use one remote for various devices.

But the app does not end with just physically controlling your TV, AC, and other appliance. Peel Smart Remote also offers a comprehensive TV guide, which helps you choose between different genre shows and episodes. With the app, you can look for

trending shows

or see your

recently watched episodes

. You can even get

information

about the shows you are following, as well as

personalized recommendations

.

With Peel Smart Remote, you can also

directly cast

Youtube

content for

live streaming

devices, such as

Roku

and

Chromecast

. More, if it is supported on your TV, you can use the app’s

voice assistant

to control your TV through your voice.

Peel Smart Remote is a

free application

. This means there will be

lots of ads

interrupting you. In fact, the app places ads

over lock screen

without consent. So, when you choose to use this app, expect to see ads whenever you unlock your phone.

For easier control

When you look at functionality, Peel Smart Remote is

not that bad of an app

, especially since it comes free. It works on popular TV brands and even helps you control other appliances. And with its built-in TV guide list, it will be easy to choose what show to watch. Plus, the more you use it, the more personalize its service will be. However, its

insistent ad inserts

are just plain annoying. Ads are bad enough whenever you open the app. But seeing them in your lock screen is another level. However, if you can get past it, then you can use the app to

get more convenience

.
