Foss TV Remote Control App - eviltoast

Hi All, wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a FOSS Android/Google TV remote control app? My phone doesn’t support IR so looking for a remote control app that can connect via Wifi. TIA!

    Have you considered a hardware intermediary? My esp32+esphome+ir led is working pretty well so far

      Do you happen to have links to a tutorial or something similar for this setup? I know my Harmony isn’t long for this world.

        I roughly followed this, but I hooked the led to 5v with a transistor, mine wasn’t super reliable on 3v3. I added the buttons to a homeassistant dashboard, but I think esphome has other hooks if you don’t want to set up all that
