Note to fellow Mods: If there's a better place for this thread feel free to move it.
I've tried a few multifunction remotes in the past and not been thrilled due to less than stellar and there was no way to rename a key if you changed its functions.
I started experimenting with using an iPad /iPhone as a remote and tried the Red Eye. I am wondering if there is something similar out there with better performance / support now that Red Eye is no more.
I've been looking at Universal TV Remote | Universal Remote App | Home Automation | Remote Control as an alternative but I've seen some complaints of lags during button pushes and skip1Macro capability
s while streaming.
Ideally I'm look for the following features:
1. Macro capability
2, If it uses IOS ideally I'd like to set up one profile for my wife and one for me. She tends to prefer these things as simple as possible.
Any comments / suggestions appreciated.
