What is Itsytv?

A native macOS menu bar app for controlling your Apple TV.

Features:

  • Menu bar remote — Control your Apple TV from a compact floating panel
  • D-pad and buttons — Circular d-pad with directional navigation, select, home, menu/back, play/pause
  • Keyboard navigation — Arrow keys, Return, Backspace, Escape, Space mapped to remote buttons
  • Text input — Type directly into Apple TV text fields with a live keyboard
  • Now playing — Artwork, title, artist, progress bar, and playback controls
  • App launcher — Grid of installed apps with icons fetched from the App Store
  • Multiple devices — Pair and switch between multiple Apple TVs
  • Global hotkeys — Assign keyboard shortcuts to instantly open the remote for specific Apple TVs
  • Per-device panel position — Remembers where you placed the remote for each Apple TV
  • Launch at login — Optional auto-start from the menu bar
  • Unpair — Remove pairing credentials from the panel menu

Itsytv pairs naturally with Itsyhome — a free macOS menu bar app for controlling your HomeKit devices. Manage lights, cameras, thermostats, locks, scenes, and 18+ accessory types without ever opening the Home app.
