Quick Start
This quick start quide assumes your TiVo(R) is connected to your home network. This means you need a network cable or wireless TiVo adapter connected to your TiVo and configured properly. Please see your TiVo documentation for more information.

1) Connect to Wi-Fi
The device running RCX must be connected to the same network as the TiVo®. Typically this means the device must be connected to your home Wi-Fi network.

2) Enable "Network Remote Control"
Enable the "Network Remote Control" setting on the TiVo. Do this by navigating the TiVo menu to "Settings & Messages\Settings\Remote, Cable Card & Devices\Network Remote Control".

3) Add the TiVo network IP address to RCX
Your TiVo network address must be added to RCX. To find the TiVo network IP address navigate the TiVo menu to "Settings & Messages\Settings\Network & Phone". The TiVo network IP address should be displayed. Tap the "gear" icon in RCX, choose "TiVo DVRs" then tap the "Add TiVo" button and enter the information requested. Alternatively you can choose "TiVo DVRs" and use the "Scan" button to try to automatically identify your TiVo's IP address.

Notes

- The TiVo web site accessed from the RCX menu can be changed in the options. This is particularly useful if you live outside the US.

- TV volume and input cannot be controlled by the TiVo itself and this app can't do it either. The TiVo remote uses infrared which nearly all android devices lack.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★Had VM Tivo installed yesterday, tried the free version just to confirm it worked ok - which it did, so upgraded to the paid version. Nice app, easy to use and deserving of the 5* ratings, so adding mine to the list :)
5 ★Works perfectly in the UK with my Samsung S7 with new and old TiVo. Ideal when the kids loose the normal remote. This I now use all the time.
5 ★This is a perfect replacement for the standard tivo remote with the added feature of remote scheduling and a whole lot cheaper then the price of a new remote
5 ★I can't fault this app, it is absolutely perfect
5 ★Brilliant app. Well worth 5 stars!
5 ★Works flawlessly on virgin tivo
5 ★Extremely responsive controls and, unlike the official app, no waiting to "connect" every time the app comes to the foreground. The redesign greatly improves usability. I don't even bother with the official app anymore. Well worth the purchase price.
5 ★Nice app that does what it says. Large buttons & clear layout. Near instantaneous response to commands. The last update allowed use of the phone's default QWERTY keyboard. Also added a My Shows button. :-) Works perfectly with UK Virgin Tivo box. Love it.
1 ★Load of crap. It don't work. Waste of money
5 ★If you have a TiVo, or like me 2, you need this, just like the free version but no ads and full screen. Works great on the Australian TiVo.
5 ★This is so much faster than my remote and you can be 3 rooms away. I paid 3 dollars as a well deserved tip.
5 ★excellent
