Conclusion:
The Google TV Remote is a great way to be able to convert your phone into a fully functioning remote control for your television! You can use all kinds of things with this app including the arrow keys, all of the buttons and also the mouse pad. Using this app you will also be able to share any web pages or cool video you find right with your television. Or you can use the voice control feature to be able to search for content on there. The main thing you need to do is just to make sure that your Android phone is on the same network that your Google TV is going to be on. There have been some issues with this app however. First of all it can be very buggy at times and sometimes you will run into errors that will cause the phone to either freeze up or just force close itself. Also, every time you launch it has to search for connect devices and will just sit there and make you wait during all of it. If you can get past the bugs and the freezing though, it can actually be a pretty cool device when using the arrow in the pointer mode. You can also use the swipe ‘n tap mode and also the voice search if you are savvy.
This app has been given medium to average ratings and currently sits at 3.8 out of 5 stars from critics and reviewers. The nice thing about the app is that it is completely free to download onto your phone.
