Effortless Media Control with Chill Remote
Chill Remote offers a seamless and user-friendly interface for controlling your media devices from anywhere in your home, enhancing your entertainment experience.
Chill Remote offers a convenient solution for those who enjoy streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, iPlayer, YouTube, Vimeo, Hulu, Twitch, ITV, Disney+, and Britbox. This remote control is particularly useful for individuals who watch content on their computers and use Chrome. If you're looking for a reliable remote control, Chill Remote is the answer.
Setting up Chill Remote is incredibly simple. It allows you to control any computer effortlessly, making it ideal for media centers or when connecting your computer to a TV or projector.
With Chill Remote, you have access to all the essential controls you expect, including Play, Pause, Seeking, Volume, and Fullscreen. Additionally, you can even browse content on your iDevice. The remote also offers the convenience of controlling playback directly from the Today Widget on your lock screen. Furthermore, it includes speed controls so that you can watch content at your preferred pace.
One noteworthy feature that sets Chill Remote apart is the 'What was that?' control. This feature rewinds the content by 20 seconds, activates subtitles temporarily to clarify unclear dialogue, and then automatically turns off the subtitles after 20 seconds. This is perfect for anyone who wants to ensure they didn't miss an important detail.
Browsing through popular streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, iPlayer, Vimeo, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and BritBox is made easier with Chill Remote's intuitive interface on your iDevice. Once you find what you want to watch, simply click play, and it will seamlessly start playing on your computer.

I am an editor at UpdateStar. I started as a support engineer, and am now specialized in writing about general software topics from a usability and performance angle among others. I telecommute from UpdateStar’s Berlin office, when I am not working remote as a digital nomad for UpdateStar. When I'm not analyzing the latest software updates, you can find me exploring new cities, immersing myself in local cultures, and discovering innovative tech trends across the globe.
