Simply Remote controls TVs on your own Wi-Fi network. It finds TVs on that network and sends them remote-control commands directly.
None. Simply Remote has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. We do not run a server that receives your data.
The app stores the list of TVs it found, their pairing keys and your settings on your iPhone only. Deleting the app removes them.
Local network access is used only to find and control your TVs. When the trending movies section is shown, the app requests public movie and show listings from The Movie Database (TMDB). That request includes no personal information. This application uses TMDB and the TMDB APIs but is not endorsed, certified, or otherwise approved by TMDB. Streaming availability data is provided by JustWatch.
These features send button presses to the app on your iPhone. Nothing leaves your devices except the commands sent to your TV.
