Remote Control for Kodi turns your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch into a remote control for Kodi, connecting through WiFi with Kodi running on any supported device like a Media PC, Windows PC, Mac or an AppleTV. Beautiful retina graphics support, designed for modern iOS releases, works with XBMC 12.x (Frodo) up to the latest Kodi 18.x (Leia).

With Remote Control for Kodi you can browse your video library on your iPhone or iPad; just flick through all of your movie thumbnails with your fingers, dive into a TV show and view its episodes by season, or start playing a movie or a TV show episode directly from the app.

Use Kodi as your music jukebox and browse your music library directly on your device, and start playing you favourite album, song or artist with just a tap of your finger.

All information about your music and video libraries is cached locally on your device, and can be browsed off-line.

A full range of remote control features such as navigation, player control, and more is included. For text input the on-screen keyboard can be used, as if the keyboard was directly connected to the machine running Kodi.

Designed for all sizes of iPhone and iPad devices, usability and robustness are key features. The apps user interface is designed to be clean and intuitive, building on interfaces and elements that are well known to iOS and Kodi users. Optimized for all iPhone and iPad models that support iOS 11, optimized for landscape and portrait mode on iPad, and tested with large music and video libraries for optimal performance.

Pros and cons of Remote Control for Kodi app for iPhone and iPad

Remote Control for Kodi app good for

If youre looking for a Kodi control app that actually tries to follow Apples iOS design, you should give this one a try. The interface is beautiful, clean and simple. Everything is right in the place where you would expect it. The number of features is not really overwhelming: no TV view, no files view, only artist listing of music, no search. But the basics are there, and they are good. 4,99€ ist a bit on the high side as well ... but I am hoping for further updates!
Like simple layout and functionality Would like to switch between multiple xbmc host easily, maybe a simlple toggle at the top And would kill for a file browse mode in movies and music
Все работает отлично! Ничего лишнего! Необходимо добавить кириллицу в клавиатуру и немного расширить возможности (работа с плейлистом).........All works perfectly! Anything superfluous! It is necessary to add Cyrillics in the keyboard and to expand possibilities (work with the playlist)

Some bad moments

This doesnt work. I have Constellation and another remote app that works perfectly with my xbmc server, but this one gives me a connection error, although all parameters are fine.
Beautifully designed interface, but a significant lack of features. No auto connect, no system settings at all, music library displayed as plain list without artwork, no sorting options (eg. artist, genre, etc), just to mention a few. The author has put a lot of effort into the design, I appreciate that. But even if this app would be for free, it couldnt compete with the official XBMC remote. To charge 5 euro for it, seems rather inappropriate.
It would be great if it would work. It is not showing my library- only 1 tv show, nothing else and there are many others. Updating the list is not doing anything. I am disappointed.
I just wasted 5 bucks on this horrible app. I thought to myself. "No reviews, looks good. Ill give it an honest go and a review." Well here it is. This isnt worth 5 bucks. Avoid this app. I assume this wont even be posted for review but this is the truth.
No autocomplete for server settings. App crashes after saving preferences. iPhone 4S, 7.0.4
It worked great for the pass 2 months, then all of a sudden it stopped working. There is no tech support, blog or trouble shooting. I think its the new Kodi release thats making it obsolete.
