Hey there, fellow Product Hunters and couch potatoes! If you’re the kind of person who prefers to spend your off days with your feet up, VLC Mobile Remote is going to be your BFF. VLC Mobile Remote is a universal remote of sorts that allows you to access, and control your PCs/Macs from your smartphone/tablet. This power-packed app does everything from mouse and keyboard remote; media and volume controls; and system power control to controlling VLC, Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube, HBO Now/Go, Disney HotStar, etc. (remote control for any media player, really) and launching/controlling apps on your PC/Mac (your internet browsers included!). No more couch-to-computer workout. Those who watch movies and videos or listen to music on their computers will find that VLC Mobile Remote gives them the awesome power to control their media players, as well as their PCs/Macs from wherever they are seated, whether in the kitchen or on the toilet. Highlights + Easy to use and intuitive user interface + Mouse & Keyboard Remote + Media & Volume controls + System Power Control (Shutdown, restart, sleep etc) + Works as Netflix Remote, Amazon Prime Remote, YouTube Remote. + Remote control for Spotify, Apple Music, VLC or any media player. + Launch and Control Chrome, Firefox or any internet browser on your PC/Mac. + Open & quit any apps on your Mac/Windows from iPhone & iPad Cheers, Adarsh Urs Mobile developer, tech geek, and devout couch potato

A great app. Since you are constantly adding new features to the app can I expect a feature for controlling presentations for PowerPoint?

@adarshurs is making incremental updates to this app over the years and the updates are only making the app more powerful and useful. You should definitely check this app out if you want to use VLC media player the lazy way.

Congratulations on the launch Adarsh! Seems like this is something that could expand into many other video applications as well!

@between_team thank you. Looks like between app is a nice idea, I'll check that out. And, Yes, I do have plans to expand the app with new features. However, can you tell me about expanding the app into many other video apps? I just want to know what you're thinking.

@adarshurs I meant more so on the naming. It looks like it can be used on more media players than just VLC, so maybe a name that suggests that might be good?

@between_team yes, you're correct, that's why we have another app called 'Remote for PC & Mac'. Lot of people search for vlc remote, we do not want to lose them.
