TivoCFR is a wifi remote control for Tivo DVRs. It is a fully functional remote on both iPhone and Apple Watch. The app breaks the Tivo remote into a well organized 4 page remote and maximizes button sizes, especially on Apple Watch. Swipe left and right to page through the different sections of the remote.

The iPhone app is free (ads supported) and fully functional after download. It also serves as a settings companion for the Apple Watch app.

The Apple Watch app is free to download with functionality limited to trick play functions.  Test the watch app in this limited state. Then get the 7-day trial to unlock all features before you buy.

Use the iPhone app to discover/add/send Tivo devices and change/send settings to the Apple Watch app.

Please reference the Initial Setup in Settings > Help on the iPhone app.

Features:

The Apple Watch app is totally independent of the iPhone app. Long press the Pause/Device button to switch Tivo devices.

All Settings, Device discovery and Purchases are handled by the iPhone app.

Quick Play - (Apple Watch app only). This setting is optional and can be turned off in Settings. Used when fast forwarding or rewinding. The Tivo device returns to play state the next time the watch is activated.

Grid Display - Turn on Grid Display to see how the grid fits iPhone or Apple Watch.
