## Description

The Universal Remote For Cisco by Illusions Inc offers a seamless and compact solution to control all your Cisco devices. Designed with minimal application size, this easy-to-configure app supports a wide range of Cisco electronics including TVs, set-top boxes, projectors, AV receivers, home theatres, and DVD players. Users can quickly set up the app using a simple two-step guideline, with helpful screenshots provided for guidance. Once a device is configured, it is saved in "Saved Devices" for quick access, allowing management of multiple devices effortlessly.

The remote supports every function found on a traditional Cisco remote and includes options like enabling or disabling vibration feedback on button presses. Please note that the app requires a built-in IR blaster or an external infrared transmitter to function, and is not an official Cisco product but provides convenient control by utilizing collected remote codes.
