Couch Remote
by Angelo De Lorenzo
Remote control for Android TV and Google TV
About
Couch Remote controls Android TV and Google TV devices on the local network from a compact GTK interface inspired by physical TV remotes. It supports network discovery, pairing, saved device profiles, Wake-on-LAN, configurable key mappings, diagnostics, text input, app launching, and per-device button remapping for model-specific behavior.
