About this app

IRControl is an Android app for controlling home electronic devices via infrared. Following devices are supported for transmitting the corresponding infrared codes:

- Global Caché iTach Flex
- Broadlink RM Pro
- Logitech Harmony Hub
- IRTrans Wifi
- IrDroid USB Transceiver
- Sony internal infrared interface (tablets, smartphones)
- Android IRBlaster (tablets, smartphones)

There is also a system interface for supporting the following devices:
- BlueSound Multiroom System
- Philips Hue (LAN Gateway)
- Google Chromecast
- openHAB 2.0
- MyStrom Wifi Switch and Wifi Bulb
- Intertechno energy switch via ITGW-433 gateway
- FRITZ!Box (DECT Devices)

The user interface for controlling your system can be defined freely and can be extended via the integrated Wysiwyg editor. This makes it possible to configure a simple control desktop, which is explained to the user by graphic symbols and only has the control elements which the user needs at all. For graphically less experienced users, predefined layout templates are available.

A highlight is certainly the integration of the Bluesound Multiroom system, which merges the control of your Bluesound system with the control of the other devices to one unit.

IRControl requires a minimum screen resolution of 1200 x 720 pixels. The part of IRCotnrol to makes the configuration is otherwise not useful. It is recommended to use a larger smartphone or a tablet. However, it is possible and makes also sense to design a user interface for smaller devices which you can transfer to it. For devices with small display the execution part of is avialable as seperatre App (IRControl Executor).
