WiFi Infrared Remote Controller – Tuya App Control

Bring supported infrared appliances into your smart-home routine with this compact WiFi IR controller. It acts as a bridge between the Tuya Smart app and appliances normally operated by an infrared remote, such as a television, air conditioner or fan. That makes it useful for adding phone controls and schedules to existing equipment without replacing the appliance itself.

The app organizes controls by appliance type, helping you keep compatible TV, set-top box, air-conditioning and other infrared commands together. After configuration, you can send commands from your phone, including while away from home through the controller's WiFi connection and connected app service. For a compatible air conditioner, that could mean turning on cooling shortly before you arrive rather than waiting until you are indoors.

A learning function offers another way to add controls when a suitable appliance profile is unavailable. It copies supported button commands from the original infrared remote into the app. This is useful for building access to particular functions you use regularly; compatibility depends on the appliance's infrared commands and the commands the controller can learn.

Scheduled actions let supported appliances follow a daily routine. You could schedule a television's off command for the end of an evening or time a compatible fan around your usual working hours. Device sharing allows multiple household members to use the same controller. Alexa and Google Home integration adds voice commands for supported controls, providing another convenient way to operate an appliance when your hands are occupied.

The round controller is designed for tabletop placement and emits infrared signals around a 360-degree area. Placement still matters: the appliance must be able to receive its infrared commands, so the controller belongs in the same usable infrared coverage area as the equipment it operates. It uses USB power, with a power adapter included. Its combination of app controls, learning and timed commands makes it a practical central point for compatible infrared equipment in a living room, bedroom or home office.
