Demote Smart TV Remote No Ads

Your TV remote is in the couch. Your phone is already in your hand.

Demote is an ad-free universal TV remote that connects to your Smart TV over Wi-Fi and stays there. Lose the physical remote and control your home entertainment seamlessly. Demote is compatible with a massive range of devices (see the compatibility list below).

Universal TV Remote Features:
• Full Control: D-pad, volume controls, and precise media playback.
• Voice Search: Native Google voice search for compatible Smart TVs—just like the button on your official remote.
• Touchpad Pointer: Swipe the touchpad for highly intuitive, fluid pointer input.
• Full Keyboard: Type instantly from your phone for those moments your TV demands a complicated password or search query.
• Plus, you get one custom shortcut button for free!

Button Builder & Customization:
Make your remote work for you. Build custom shortcut buttons to instantly open specific streaming apps, execute complex keypresses, or trigger custom actions. Chain multiple steps together into a single Macro button—power on, switch input, and launch your app in one tap.

Very Lazy Mode (VLM) (EXPERIMENTAL, Android only):
Hands-free TV control. Just say "television" then tell it what to do. VLM is a unique button type that keeps the mic open—no tapping required.

Instant Launch:
Add the Demote widget or Quick Settings tile to your Android home screen (or set up a Siri Shortcut on iOS) and jump straight back into your last-connected TV's remote—no hunting through the app first.

Why Choose Demote?
• Auto-Connect: Finds your Smart TV automatically on your local Wi-Fi network.
• Persistent: Reconnects instantly the second you reopen the app.
