About Bluetooth TV Remote Core
Remote Core is the companion app of "Bluetooth TV Remote". You need both apps: install Remote Core first, then Bluetooth TV Remote.
Remote Core makes your phone a Bluetooth keyboard for your TV and keeps that link alive in the background. The remote app sends its keys through it.
Why a separate app: the TV remembers the pairing. When the app that holds the Bluetooth link restarts, some TVs need a new pairing. Remote Core rarely changes, so updates of the remote app do not break your pairing.
• Bluetooth LE keyboard (HID over GATT), no Wi-Fi needed
• Runs as a small background service with a notification
• Test keys to check the link without the remote app
• Optional: volume keys control the TV while the screen is off
