Works with Apple TV
Your Apple TV remote, on your iPhone.
Lost your Apple TV remote? LazyBinger turns your iPhone into a full remote for your Apple TV TV running tvOS — auto-detected on your Wi-Fi, with zero setup.

Everything your iPhone drives on your Apple TV
- Power, navigate and set the volume on your Apple TV — from your bed.
- Full D-pad, play/pause and a keyboard for typing into search.
- Eleven one-tap apps: Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube…
- Premium: voice magic words (“sleepy time”) and camera intro auto-skip.
Connect your Apple TV in 30 seconds
Open LazyBinger: your Apple TV shows up on Wi-Fi. Enter the code shown on screen once, and it's paired.
After that everything runs over your local network — no account, no cloud. Wake-on-LAN even powers your Apple TV back on from across the room in the morning.
Frequently asked
- Does LazyBinger work with every Apple TV TV?
- With connected Apple TV TVs (tvOS) on the same Wi-Fi as your iPhone. They're detected automatically — no address to type in.
- Do I still need the original Apple TV remote?
- No. Once paired, you control your Apple TV entirely from the iPhone. The real one can stay under the couch.
- Is my Apple TV data sent anywhere?
- No. Discovery and control of your Apple TV stay on your local network; voice and camera are processed on the iPhone. No account, no tracking.
