Features & Capabilities

The Yamaha Universal Remote by Illusions Inc is a compact and easy-to-use app that replicates all the functions of a traditional Yamaha remote control. Designed with minimal app size for quick downloads even on slow internet connections, this remote supports a variety of Yamaha devices including TVs, set-top boxes, projectors, AV receivers, home theatres, and DVD players. Configuring the app is straightforward with a simple two-step guide, complete with helpful screenshots for convenience. Once a device is configured, it is saved under "Saved Devices" for quick access without reconfiguration. The app requires a built-in IR blaster or external infrared transmitter to work effectively. Additional features include the option to enable or disable button press vibration feedback. Please note, this app is not an official Yamaha product but provides full remote control functionality for compatible Yamaha devices.

User Reviews

The Yamaha Universal Remote app effectively controls various Yamaha devices, especially AV receivers and soundbars, making it convenient for users without their original remotes. It is easy to set up and covers basic remote functionalities. However, many users experience intrusive ads that hinder usability, limited customization of remote buttons, inconsistent button behavior, and compatibility issues for phones lacking infrared blasters. The user interface is considered outdated and could benefit from improvements, such as better button management and navigation.

Pros

App can control multiple Yamaha devices effectively, especially for those who have lost original remotes.
It is easy to set up and use for basic remote functions.
Works well with Yamaha AV receivers and soundbars with infrared blaster phones.
Provides a functional and simple remote control alternative, covering essential buttons.
Convenient for users to avoid getting up to use a physical remote.

Cons

Excessive and intrusive ads that disrupt the user experience, including pop-ups and advertising that overrides Android controls.
Limited button options and lack of customization such as adding/removing or rearranging buttons.
App often has glitches such as buttons triggering unintended actions (e.g., opening email) and issues with some remote functions not working consistently.
Requires a phone with an infrared blaster; incompatible devices lead to unusable app experience.
User interface has design issues like long names on scrollbars, outdated style, and poor navigation.
