AerioTV 1.8.0 (iPhone, iPad, Apple TV)

Control your TV from your phone

Open AerioTV on your iPhone and tap the TV button to use your phone as a remote for your Apple TV or Google TV Streamer on the same network.

  • Browse and change channels from the phone, with the guide right there
  • Transport controls: play/pause, and pause/rewind live TV (with Live Rewind)
  • Switch Stream: swap the channel's source server without leaving the couch
  • Record the current program straight from the remote
  • Sleep Timer (Off / 30m / 1h / 1.5h / 2h) - pauses the TV when it fires
  • Audio Only - drops the video so the screen goes dark while sound keeps playing
  • Full audio track, subtitle, playback speed, and aspect ratio controls
  • Long-press the "Controlling" pill to disconnect

Pairing is a one-time 6-digit code shown on the TV; after that your phone reconnects automatically.

AirPlay

  • iPhone: send live video to an AirPlay destination from the player.

Under the hood

  • Playback now auto-selects the best engine (AVPlayer where supported, mpv as fallback).
  • More resilient device discovery on the local network (self-healing mDNS browse, ghost-entry cleanup).
  • Fixed a rare crash when opening a server's details while iCloud sync was merging changes.
  • Over-the-air channels whose audio track fails to open now fall back gracefully instead of dropping the stream.

Note: turning on debug logging (Settings) now captures companion-remote activity, so if you hit an issue you can send us a log that pinpoints it.
