The DirecTV Remote+ app for Android allows you to control your networked DirecTV receiver from anywhere in your house. If you don’t have any networked DirecTV receivers, you may still be able to control them with the app if you have a supported Android device with built-in IR! Read below for requirements and more information.
Requirements / Prerequisites:
Please see the Requirements in the FAQ section.

For network control, in most cases you can perform an automatic scan for your receivers and the app will find them. However, some receivers may not be set up correctly for external control. If you have problems scanning for your receivers, please see the troubleshooting FAQ.

Important:
The main DirecTV Remote+ app (this app) as well as the Shortcut add-on and the Volume plugin keep track of the DirecTV receivers based on their IP address. If a receiver’s IP address changes, it will cause these apps to lose the ability to communicate with them. See this FAQ for more information on how to set your receivers to do this. These apps can be used without doing this, but it will result in having to re-scan for your receivers anytime one of their IP addressed changes. Following the steps as outlined in the FAQ linked above will provide you with rock-solid app performance for years to come!
