** DIRECTV WI-FI REMOTE REQUIREMENTS **
This app requires WiFi and DirecTV HD receivers and/or HD DVRs connected to your home network (wired or wirelessly) and properly configured for External Device access. Supported models are H21, H22, H23 and H24 HD receivers and HR20, HR21, HR22, HR23 and HR24 HD DVRs. R22s may work as well. *This will control the HR34 Genie but NOT the clients. Hopefully DirecTV will allow that soon!*
More detailed information can be found in the description for the free version. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU FIRST INSTALL THE FREE VERSION IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT YOUR SYSTEM IS COMPATIBLE WITH THIS APP. If your DirecTV system is NETWORKED and the receivers have been given a name and setup to allow external access, this app WILL work. To try the free version, press "View more applications" in the last section below.
>> For advanced users: One receiver can be controlled over 3G, etc. See Website for details.

Fantastic Responsive Developer I emailed Developer with a feature request for shortcut support. The request received immediate attention and was implemented within a week. This developer knows how to handle his customers. I was even given a beta version to test prior to official release. Best experience I've had with any Android app developer. Furthermore, this DirecTV remote now is well and beyond any of the others on the market. None of the other remotes on market offer things like Macros or shortcut support.
