Description

VLC Remote® lets you remotely control your VLC Media Player on your Mac or PC. For iPhone iPad!
Awarded Gizmodo's “Essential iPhone App” three years running. Awarded T3's “Best iPhone Apps”.

The free version is identical to the paid version except for two things:
1) The free version shows adverts.
2) The free version won't let you browse to open files from the remote. You'll have to get up of your sofa and do that manually until you upgrade!

“The new VLC Remote app is simply stunning! It works a treat and it feels professional and powerful. Love it.”
- Adam, London
“The update for the iPhone version is *amazing* - it looks so polished - not that I had any complaints before.”

App pauses file when opening

Grazstarr on

Australia

Hi devs. Great app thank you so much. However, when opening the app it pauses the file playing on the laptop. Which is problematic for me when I’m running a non theatrical cinema! Would be great if this bug could be fixed. I’m running it on an MacBook Pro 2017 and and iPhone SE latest

Awesome

This app is essential for anyone using VLC. It’s great having a remote instead of sitting close by the laptop or getting up and playing movies all the time. Now you can sit and relax and watch show after show.

Works perfectly

Timscienceman on

Australia

I am very pleased with the app as it works exactly as I want. I don't use it enough to justify the purchase of the upgrade but would if I used it everyday.

Highly recommend

Love this app. Always connects without any issues and let's me control VLC via my iPhone. Lifesaver when your laptop is connected to the TV via HMDI and you don't want to get up off the couch/bed!
