## TouchControl Universal Remote Description
Please get the FREE TouchControl Server (designer) app for macOS (from the Mac App Store) or Windows (at www.touchapptech.com) and try it out before purchasing this app for your iOS device to make sure that TouchControl will meet your needs.  Also please note that the server/designer does *NOT* need to be running 24/7 to use TouchControl on your iOS device!

With TouchControl, you can turn any iOS device into a universal network, infrared, and PC remote control! With TouchControl you can create FULLY CUSTOMIZED remote control screens for your Mac or PC, A/V and other infrared- or network-controlled devices (IMPORTANT: additional hardware required for IR control). The free Mac or Windows PC software provides user interface (remote control) design functionality, and can also optionally enable running programs, executing commands and scripts, and controlling the mouse and keyboard on your Windows computer directly from your iOS device, giving you almost unlimited control.  The Windows server also natively supports the USB-UIRT for PC-based IR control. 

TouchControl gives you more than any other iOS remote automation app:

• Direct device-to-device control of iTach and GC-100 network adapters (www.globalcache.com), iRTrans LAN adapters (www.irtrans.com), network attached A/V equipment, Keene IR Anywhere, smart bulbs and other smart appliances, and more (just about anything that&#039;s network attached)!

• Integrated IR code database for Global Caché adapters.  Over 138,000 searchable IR code sets freely available in an easy-to-use interface to quickly and easily configure your Global Caché buttons!

• DIrect control of Windows automation software such as AutoHotKey, EventGhost, Kodi, Girder, IRCommand2, and more!

• Full 2-way control and TRUE automation with device feedback, custom scripting (Javascript), iCloud state, and more!

• Build activities that can automatically discover and control any devices on your network that support Simple Service Discovery Protocol (SSDP).

• Build activities for Apple Watch!  (Direct control of HTTP devices from the watch is available, other TCP device control and 2-way communication provided via the paired iPhone app.)

• Control your devices from a browser and schedule commands to run at set times via the built-in web server (in-app purchase required).

• Execute buttons from Siri Shortcuts and Search results. 

• Mouse &amp; keyboard control of your Windows PC, plus control of HTPC software such as WIndows Media Center, JRiver, XBMC, WinAmp, Pandora, and more!

• Monitor your Mac or Windows desktop from your iOS device using the exclusive TouchControl Screen Grabber!

• Fully customizable user interface on your iOS device!

REQUIREMENTS: A Mac or Windows PC is required to design and configure the remote control activities (screens, devices, buttons, etc.) used in TouchControl via the FREE TouchControl Server software.  However, the server DOES NOT need to be running 24x7 on your network to use TouchControl on your iOS device (only required for those features that require a Mac or PC, such as running desktop commands &amp; programs, mouse/keyboard control, screen grabber, AutoHotKey, etc.). 

Please visit  to learn more about the devices that can be controlled with TouchControl, and to make sure you meet the requirements. You are encouraged to install and try the FREE Mac or Windows server/designer software before purchasing the iOS app and verify it meets your needs.  Mac server available in the Mac App Store.  Windows server available on the TouchControl web site.

** IMPORTANT ** All feedback is welcome in the App Store; however, support for this app is provided via the TouchControl website/email only, as there is no mechanism available to address problems reported via the App Store. If you have any problems with TouchControl, PLEASE contact support via the web site contact form.

## TouchControl Universal Remote Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great remote  program"
I am using it to control a device across a vpn. It is working great! Thankyou for a app that works exactly as described at a good price
-- python-beginner, 2025-12-25

### ***** "This is better than ice cream!"
I have tried out literally all of the apps for controlling various devices. This is by far the best!
-- Seawbb, 2025-10-16

### *---- "Worst app ever"
Such a terrible app. You cannot login to any new devices and pair it with the system. Nothing works. How can a state of the line theater system be run by this terrible app??!!
-- AcBkNkLk, 2024-11-07

### ***** "Best 3rd-party app on my phone!"
I’ll admit I was upset when the makers of the iRule app I was using for home control sold out to Kramer Electronics. I chose TouchControl as a replacement and have no regrets. It is far more powerful than iRule ever was and has a much better model that uses locally built servers with which to edit configurations on devices. Well worth the time I invested to learn the basics I needed. One of the best features of this system is the tech support. Dave is incredibly helpful and responds within hours to push me over small bumps I’ve encountered. What’s really great is that fixes to minor bugs and even new features that I’ve suggested are implemented within days of my request! Never would have expected this from an app. The only feature missing is a timer that would execute commands on a schedule (like existed in dedicated remotes like ProntoPro NG 7000, e.g.)—but Dave even suggested a workaround for that. Overall, considering the power, price and current level of support, you can’t go wrong with this app.
-- Silvertail02, 2024-07-03

### ***-- "App crashes after update"
Applied the patch and the remote app crashes after.

Tried restarting, deleted and re-installed

Does the server have to updated too?
-- TampaEngineer, 2024-06-30

### ***** "Great !!!"
As a long-time user of TouchControl I would just like to say this is the most wonderful software I have ever used. If you&#039;re looking for something that is turnkey this might not be for you. But if you are a DIY enthusiast then you found the right software. I challenge anyone to find a company that supports a product better than Dave does.Simply email him and he will help. I have done this many times and not once has he ever failed me. I highly recommend Touch Control. Al Wassmer

### ***** "Best Remote Control App"
After having to replace my iPad, I noticed I could no longer download my iRule app which I had invested a lot of time with over the years. Attempting to contact both iRule (which no longer supports the App) and Apple resulted in no progress.  So I resigned myself, to having to find an alternative.  I tried out  several Apps (some a great deal more expensive), in much frustration.  The Apps simply did not have the capability and flexibility I had come to expect from using iRule.  Fortunately I stumbled upon this App and am so very happy I did.  There is a bit of experience required to get up to speed, but not any more than iRule required.  In addition Dave is always readily available to provide A++ support with getting over the learning curve, helping with any desired Java scripts, etc.  He has spent thousands of hours developing and perfecting the app and documentation and it shows.  In comparison to iRule, l believe the TC app has equivalent if not more flexibility and capability and is more user friendly and straight forward than iRule.  The instruction manual is approximately 200 pages, well written, and is useful for explaining basic functionality for the novice, as well as more complicated versatile implementations for the advanced users.  I can highly recommend this App for all users and you will not find a better Remote Control for IR, IP, Serial (RS232) and other communications in the App Store that is better designed, functions great, and has great versatility. The fact that this app is dirt cheap and has great support makes it a no brainer.
-- Wayne the Audiophile, 2022-09-26

### ****- "A little confusing to connect  exert A PC Renote"
Connects easy
-- Rhmachote, 2022-05-22

### ***** "Total customization"
If your willing to invest a little time you can have the most customizable remote available PERIOD   Use Siri and Shortcuts to control anything. The best I have come across.
-- at!band, 2021-01-09

### *---- "Beware"
Requires server software to be loaded, and Wi-Fi. Bait and switch. Suckered again.
-- Mountain weather groupie, 2020-07-17
