IrUSB Android

IrUSB

Add IR sending and reception to any Android device!

Features & Capabilities

You love your remote, you just wish it could control everything in your home. IrUSB can make that a reality. Control everything with a simple IR remote, even cloud controlled devices!

With IrUSB, you can use IR remotes of your choice to:
Control your AV gear (cable boxes, AVRs, TVs, etc)
Control the Android GUI on your Amazon Fire TV or nVidia Shield
Trigger cloud macros to do nearly anything from lighting control to security

IrUSB also can act as an IP controlled IR transmitter:
Control any IR device using popular control system such as SmartThings, Control4, and more.
Control any IR device using Alexa Voice commands (IrUSB is a supported Alexa Smart home Device)

IrUSB is designed to be nearly invisible. It is smaller than a standard USB cable, doesn't need a power supply, and the IR transceiver head is tiny and colored to blend in with AV gear.

IrUSB connects directly to the USB port on your Android or Android TV device (or a connected hub). This APP acts as a driver for the hardware and allows quick and easy configuration.

Does NOT say anywhere that it needs a specific ir blaster, has a suspicious looking EULA, and completely fails to recognize the blaster I do have.

Advertising for SplashTiles? Already purchased the hardware, please don't advertise every time the app opens. 1 Star as the ad will not go away.
