Before you use it

Companion Remote works with Apple TV and needs an Android device running Android 8 or later on the same local network. Pairing needs the code shown on your Apple TV. Available volume, playback and media details depend on your TV, receiver and current app. The phone cannot send the physical remote's infrared volume signal.

Support

For help, email pgh-holdings-apps@proton.me. Support is in English by email only. Please describe your Android device and Apple TV model, their software versions and the steps that led to the problem. Do not send a pairing code, API key, token or pairing record.

If Do Not Disturb hides Now Playing, allow Companion Remote in your phone's Do Not Disturb app notifications.

Privacy and terms

Read the Companion Remote privacy policy before configuring optional catalogue or Plex searches.

Buying and using the app is subject to the Companion Remote terms of service.
