Hay guys
I was wondering if there are any good applications which would make use of the IR blaster on my HTC ONE
for example TV remote control apps
because i searched the net and couldn't find any good app that works with HTC ONE'S IR Blaster

I'm just using the included "TV" app and it's working excellent. Not only does it give you Remote functionality, but also will pull in your provider's channel guides/listing for your viewing pleasure
irdroid or androidirc,
you can google it ,to find the right site to download, i did'nt find any application in google play

Honestly, Sense TV app that comes with the phone, does a real good decent job as a Remote app.

OP's question is still relevant. Until we have market apps that utilize the IR blaster, this is yet another feature that's dependent upon using a Sense-laden ROM.
Look up peel on the playstore... I haven't used it yet but it's supposedly used with devices with an ir port.

Ha gave a link anyway...
I'm looking for alternatives too, the built in App doesn't support my denon receiver and I can't seem to figure out how to tell the remote I want to use the menu button on my TV sometimes and not my DVR.
Not sure of any apps, but there are workarounds to your problems. Create completely separate remotes for your devices when you don't want overlap, or if it's just one button that overlaps you can map that to one of the buttons on the HTC remote app that you aren't using (for me, that's the "." button on the number pad).
Will the remote app still not support your receiver if you do it the hard way (programming each button)? Or is just that you would rather not have to go through that (understandable).

I'd rather not have to program each button. I'm longing for the Harmony folks releasing a remote app. Activity based remotes are awesome.
I'm actually looking for an app that will mimic the Apple Remote so that I can control my Macbook with it.
I am just looking for an app that will skip all the programming BS and just left me use it as a remote. I don't have any service as I use 100% streaming and downloading for my content. Also simple functions like power/input take extra button presses. Should be much easier than it is.

The problem with this is it requires a separate hub and doesn't make use of the built-in IR blaster. I too yearn for a Harmony-like app that makes use of my IR blaster...

[APP][IR][ALPHA] ONE To Remote Them All
Found this one. Doesn't work for aosp that I can tell though.
Sent from my ONE CM10.1
the ir blaster prbly will never work on asop. it is missing the required drivers for it.
I used Zaza remote and smart IR. Both works great. Just a little FYI for you, guys [emoji6]
so it seems LG changed the framework ...
Hello friends, I am looking for LeEco le 2 has remote control app which supports record remote through IR blaster which is very good feature as per my opinion.
If anybody's knows how can get this feature for our RN3
Here is youtube video (how it is working)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJXoVNBH1HM
Read somewhere that this function is not supported by RN3 due to Hardware limitations

Thanks for information
hey there ,
i am using IR blaster since LG g3. mostly with unified remote application.
Now , as we know huawei mat 20 pro can learn IR codes too from native inbuilt application , when i try to learn from unified remote application i get an error message "your device is not supported "
while on LG g5 i am getting 2 options to select while learning from unified remote application.
1 is Android IR blaster
2 is LG inbuilt IR blaster
Learning is only possible if you select LG inbuilt ir blaster in unified remote application.
On huawei mat 20 pro i cant find 2nd option. and Android IR blaster cant learn codes.
anyone have any suggestions or idea about how to grant access of IR receiver to 3rd party applications??
thank you !
AFAIK it's not a problem of access permission to the IR blaster, a remote app has to support the Huawei proprietary IR driver.
From the app support site:
Only certain Android devices are supported for IR. Note that Sony devices are not supported at the moment.
HTC One
LG G3 Transmitting and learning supported (Learned code will only work on LG G3)
Samsung devices with IR (S4, S6, Note 3, etc)

You might try the stock Huawei IR remote app.
