About terRemote

Control your computer with terRemote!

This app receives and handles events and/or button clicks and performs actions. It can thus work as a regular remote control app but it's much more than that. Using macros to perform actions on certain events gives you a lot of possibilities.

The current main feature is the communication with EventGhost. EventGhost is a Windows program that can control the OS (volume, onscreen text, mouse movements, keyboard commands, text to speech, ...) as well as many of its programs such as media players (Winamp, MediaMonkey, VLC, XBMC, Windows Media Player, iTunes, PowerDVD, DVBViewer, Foobar, ...) and others. It is also capable of controling peripheral devices.

To start using terRemote and EventGhost is easy, even if you don't have any experience with either of these programs, yet. terRemote has a built-in tutorial that shows you step-by-step how to control your computer via terRemote. It only takes about ten minutes to set up.

terRemote also supports the app Tasker. You can invoke Tasker events and send events from Tasker to terRemote, using payloads and variables. Install the free Tasker plugin for terRemote to use this feature.


Current main features:
- receive events and perform actions (see below)
- create macros to automate actions
- Button, Ratginbar and Seekbar widgets
- multiple layouts usable
- import/export function for backup and sharing
- multiple designs, icons, backgrounds, ... Everything is highly customizable.
- import of custom pictures to use as icon or background
- event log
- background service to send and receive events event when the app is not running

Currently available Actions:
- send events to EventGhost, using "durable events" and payloads.
- change the value, text, icon or enabled/disabled status of a widget
- start any app on the device
- invoke a task in Tasker
- display toast messages
- speak text using text-to-speech
- switch to a layout
- simulate network events
- change the device's wifi state
- go to/leave airplane mode of the device

Events that can be received by terRemote:
- network events (EventGhost)
- layout started
- incoming call, outgoing call, call ended
- wifi connected (with ssid filter)/disconnected/enabled/disabled
- Tasker events (free Tasker plugin available)


More feature are about to come. I will try to make a list and post it here. Until then, just contact me if you are looking for a certain possibility.

This free version has a 30 days trial period. After this period, the application start is delayed by 3 seconds and you will receive messages once in a while, asking you to contribute to the app development by buying the pro version. The functionality of this version will currently stay equal to terRemote Pro.

Now I'm able to receive events from eventghost via lan instead of relying on push messages via cloud. Awesome!

Thank you very much for picking up the mantle for Aneroid to EventGhost development. This program works great and I just bought the Pro version. A few more examples and documentation would be appreciated.

It's just so easy to use and you can make a custom themed remote to control any app tv av amp lights in minutes :) a must app for event ghost user's .

Fairly intuitive. I'd never tried to construct my own Android remote before, yet I was able to get basic functional control of Eventghost within the first couple hours of using it. If you have a basic understanding of how Eventghost works, then you'll appreciate the potential of this app. The robust framework makes it extremely customizable, thereby making very sophisticated remote functionality possible for those willing to put some effort into it. This is definitely not a "plug & play" solution, but then

there are things this simply won't do, that it should be able to do. It can send a command to stop media (temporarily, it resumes on it's own minutes later), but no play or pause support. On top of that it shows an extremely annoying popup every few minutes prompt you to buy. I'm not talking once in a while, like the description claims. More like 4 times in ten minutes. for that alone it gets one star. If you make a decent app that works, people will buy it. You don't get anywhere by harassing users. Get ri
