iPhone remote for MyMediaPlayer on Apple TV
MyMediaRemote turns your iPhone into a remote for MyMediaPlayer, the high-resolution audio player for Apple TV: now playing, playback controls, audio gain and library browsing.

An Apple TV with MyMediaPlayer installed and open, and an iPhone running iOS 17 or later, connected to the same Wi‑Fi network as the Apple TV.
Make sure MyMediaPlayer is open on the Apple TV and that the iPhone is on the same Wi‑Fi network. Also allow local network access: iPhone Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network > MyMediaRemote. “Guest” networks often isolate devices from each other and prevent discovery.
Choose your Apple TV in the list: a 4-digit code appears on the TV. Enter it on the iPhone. The code expires after two minutes. You only need to pair once: the iPhone is then recognized automatically.
Check the digits shown on the TV. After several wrong attempts, or if the code has expired, choose the Apple TV again to get a new code.
Tap the “…” button at the top right to open Settings: “Disconnect” returns to the Apple TV list, “Pair again” asks for a new code and “Forget this Apple TV” removes the pairing.
That's expected: tvOS doesn't let apps control the TV volume. The slider adjusts MyMediaPlayer's software gain, from −9 to +9 dB.
The source is chosen on the Apple TV, in MyMediaPlayer. The remote then browses the library shown there. Access to Jellyfin, Plex and Samba servers requires the MyMediaPlayer subscription.

MyMediaRemote (“the app”) is an iPhone remote for MyMediaPlayer, published by Fiquemo Fabrice. This policy explains what data the app processes.
The app does not collect, store or send any personal data to our servers. We do not run any server that would receive your data.
The app discovers MyMediaPlayer on your local network (Bonjour) and communicates directly with your Apple TV to display and control playback. These exchanges stay on your local network; they do not go through us.
To show the artwork of the current track, the iPhone may download it directly from the media server configured in MyMediaPlayer (Jellyfin, Plex, UPnP/DLNA).
During pairing, your iPhone's name is sent to the Apple TV to identify it on screen. The pairing code is never sent in clear text. The key used for automatic reconnection is stored only on your devices, in Apple's Keychain.
Your preferences (appearance, last Apple TV used) are kept on your iPhone. You can erase them by deleting the app.
The app contains no ads, no trackers and no third-party analytics. We do not track your activity.
The app does not knowingly collect any data about children.
This policy may be updated; the date of the last update is shown at the top of this section.
