Your experiences with MyRemote v2.1 for iOS (iPhone/iPad)

[KevinB]

Hello,

it would still be good if the text was changed to 'most Net TV / Smart TV enabled Philips products * etc.'

It's just strange to first make a statement and then weaken it right below.
Anyway is there any change it will be supported in the future?

Indeed, it doesn't work either for my HTS9540/12 with the latest updates on both HTS and MyRemote (Android). And another guy here at work has the same setup, identical problem (no connection to HTS). So that makes 3 of us

So come on Philips, how about doing the right thing ?

Cheers,
KevinB

Hi, everybody. Here is my case:

Philips TV model 9000 Series, 40PFL9704H/12 (made in 2009).
iPhone 4 with IOS 4.3

After following Philips directions (updating TV firmware and activating Jointspace), I've installed MyRemote app. Then:
Remote Control detects my TV and works fine. Net TV detects my TV and works fine. But SimplyShare not even detects my TV and at the bottom of its main screen keeps always showing: "searching device...".
Uninstalling and reinstalling MyRemote app doesn't solve the problem.

What's wrong? Maybe I must do some tweaks with the iPhone settings? Or else I've missed any other app that I should have previously installed in order SimplyShare run properly?

It is a known issue, Simply Share doesn't work at this moment. Philips is working on a fix, in iTunes it says:

"PS: SimplyShare fix will be available soon"

Hi,

Hi. I'm new to these forums. I'm interested in getting a 26pfl4907/f7 and I was wondering if there was an iOS app for remote controlling this TV. I found this topic and went looking for the MyRemote app in the US app store but I don't see it. Is this app available in the US? If not yet, when? And will it work with the 26pfl4907/f7 TV?

Thanks,

? ? ?

When does Philips expect to launch a the app without the Memory Bug?

I assume this issue fixed by now?

As always, Philips is VERY silent on this...... Whatever software/firmware/app problem you write them about: almost never a satisfying reply. This stupid bug "eats" now over 4 Gb of my iPad3's memory for no obvious reasons.

It is that I like Ambilight a lot, but I am really on the point on NOT buying a 2012 model TV and wait for the Apple TV to arrive, since also Philips has NEVER reacted on my many postings on the buggy HTS 5591 firmware (in combination with Philips TV's: CEC does work on the first connection of the HTS to the TV BUT as soon as you switch off the TV and switch it on again, you can a.o. NOT switch to FM radio any more: does not seem to interest Philips at all.....)

Dear all,

The fix is almost complete, we're finetuning on the last parts and aim to get it out very soon!
