Tap Studios
Independent app studio

Useful apps, one tap away.

Tap Studios builds focused, fast apps for the screens you use every day. We're starting with the one in your living room.

Your phone is the remote now.

TapTV

Smart TV Remote & Cast

Lost the remote again? TapTV finds every TV on your Wi-Fi and gives you a fast, full-featured remote on your phone, with one-tap launching for your streaming apps, voice search and screen mirroring. One app for the whole house.

  • Finds every TV automatically on your home Wi-Fi, pairs once, then reconnects on its own.
  • A complete remote: D-pad, volume, channels, input, playback, home and back. Power on supported Samsung and LG sets from standby.
  • Launch apps in one tap, with real icons, read straight from your TV. Your most-used apps float to the top.
  • Type or talk into TV search boxes with your phone keyboard or the mic, instead of pecking at letters on screen.
  • Mirror your screen with one tap through your phone's built-in Smart View or Cast, with sound. A built-in stream to the TV's browser is there as a fallback.
  • Always within reach: a home screen widget for power, volume and mute, and a Quick Settings tile that opens your last TV's remote.
  • Free with ads, or remove them forever with a single purchase.

How we build

Small apps, done properly.

We'd rather ship one app that works every time than ten that almost do.

One job, done well

Every app has a clear purpose. No feature bloat, no maze of settings.

Private by default

Your data stays on your device wherever possible. We don't run accounts or servers we don't need.

Tested on real hardware

We test on actual TVs in actual living rooms, not just emulators.
