## Description

**Remote for Xfinity TV** is a smart remote control app designed specifically for Xfinity TV users. Featuring a simple design and an intuitive interface, this app allows you to control your Xfinity TV effortlessly by pointing your phone as a remote. The remote offers all the necessary buttons, grouped function-wise for easy access, and provides vibration feedback on button presses. 

The app is compatible with all Xfinity TV models but requires your phone to have an IR Blaster to function. This eliminates the hassle of searching for a physical remote or buying replacements. Note that this is an unofficial app and is not affiliated with Comcast Corporation.
