Tired of seeing the remote controls pile up on the coffee table in the living room? Do you dream of being able to control your flat screen, your home cinema, your Blu-Ray player, your air conditioner, your garage door and all your multimedia devices from your Android smartphone? Here's a smart way to control all your devices directly from an Android smartphone..
Asmart Remote, the Android app that controls your entire home
Consumer electronic devices have invaded our homes. To the point where our interiors are more and more like showrooms or stores specializing in the sale of audiovisual equipment with lots of threads hanging around. Not to mention the remote controls that take up as much space on the coffee table as three telephone directories. It's very simple, we no longer know where to put them.
The Asmart Remote application that we are going to present to you today allows you to replace all of these large plastic cases. And unlike conventional universal remote controls, its interface adapts according to the devices to be controlled. 
This means that you will not waste hours understanding how it works or finding the right function..
Wireless control devices today have dozens of totally useless buttons that nobody knows about and that take up a lot of space. Some of its buttons are topped with mysterious labels (PVR, Magic, I +) supposed to help us find our way.

Without being completely revolutionary, the Asmart Remote application offers real comfort of use. It is compatible with an impressive number of brands and devices. Only regret, the application contains some advertisements. 
Nothing really annoying, but we would have liked that the developers offer a premium version to take advantage of all the features of this tool without the banners.
Recycle an old smartphone as a remote control
As you have just seen, you can very easily replace any remote control with a smartphone. But for real comfort of use, it is advisable to use this application on a smartphone dedicated to this task. Your whole family can use it.
Obviously, there is absolutely no point in investing in a new device. You probably have one or two old smartphones lying around in the back of your drawers. If one of them has an infrared port, why not use it as a simple remote control?
You just have to think about fitting it with a presentation shell. It will prevent small accidents. A smartphone unlike a remote control has a very fragile touch surface. A simple fall could be right for him.
