Everything the plastic remote did — and more

A remote that fits how you actually use your TV, with the controls you reach for most, one tap away.

D-pad & trackpad

Navigate with a precise directional pad, or switch to a swipe trackpad for cursor-based interfaces. Press and hold to repeat — just like the real thing.

Voice search

Hold the mic and talk — your voice streams to the TV's assistant to search, launch, and play without typing on screen.

App shortcuts

Jump straight into your favorite apps.

YouTubeNetflixDisney+Prime

Home-screen widgets

A D-pad widget on iOS and Android — control the TV without opening the app.

iPhone, Android & Mac

One remote across your phone and your desktop, with the same fast layout.

Private by design

No sign-up, no ads, no tracking. Flick talks to your TV directly over your local network using the official Android TV remote protocol — nothing leaves your home.

Connects even without discovery

Auto-discovers TVs on your Wi-Fi, and when your network blocks discovery you can simply add the TV by its IP address.
