The Myra Apple Watch companion makes the small moments easier: navigate, go home, go back and adjust volume with supported controls.

  • Uses the TV selected in Myra on your iPhone
  • Shows availability and connection guidance
  • Relays commands through your paired iPhone

Requires watchOS 10+ and an available paired iPhone. Your iPhone must be able to reach the TV. The Watch does not pair with or connect directly to your TV; delivery depends on phone, network and TV availability.

Made for the bigger screen

More room.
Same simplicity.

Myra on iPad brings the remote, your favorite TV apps and a text composer into a dedicated workspace. Switch between Buttons and Trackpad without losing your place.

Whether it's the living room TV or the bedroom Roku, save your TVs and switch from one place. Opening the chooser doesn't disconnect the TV you're using.

Start here

Three steps to your TV.

No Myra account to create. Just your device, your compatible TV and the same local Wi-Fi.

1

Join the same Wi-Fi.

Connect your iPhone or iPad and TV to the same local network. Guest networks can block device discovery.

2

Find and pair your TV.

Allow Local Network access, choose your TV, then approve its pairing prompt or enter its code. Fire TV needs ADB setup first.

3

Make yourself comfortable.

Use Buttons or Swipe, type on supported TVs and keep app shortcuts nearby. Your saved TV is ready for next time.

A few good questions

Before you settle in.

Honest answers about compatibility, privacy and how Myra works.

More help and contact →
Is Myra really free?

Yes. Myra is free, with no ads, subscriptions or Myra account required. TV streaming apps and the content they offer may have their own subscriptions; Myra doesn't provide access to that content.

Does it work with every smart TV?

No. Myra supports compatible Android TV / Google TV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Roku and Fire TV devices. Features vary by model and firmware. A brand name alone doesn't establish compatibility. See the compatibility guide.

Does the Apple Watch need my iPhone?

Yes. The Watch companion sends supported actions through your paired iPhone's selected-TV session. Keep your phone available and able to reach the TV over your local network. It isn't a standalone Watch-to-TV remote.

Does everything stay on my Wi-Fi?

TV discovery and remote-control commands use your local network. The app also uses Firebase usage analytics, crash/performance diagnostics and Microsoft Clarity interaction/session replay, which can send data to those providers. This is separate from TV control. Read the Privacy Policy for details.

Can it wake a TV that's switched off?

Power behavior depends on your TV and its network-standby settings. Some TVs stop accepting network commands when off. Myra can't guarantee wake-up or replace every physical-remote function.

Are widgets and Siri remote controls included?

The Open Myra widget is a launcher. Experimental widget controls, if available in your build, are off by default and are not a guaranteed production feature. This page doesn't promise Siri remote control, Control Widgets or Live Activities.
