I know that Xphinity has its X1 remote which is quite accessible as far as
going from one channel to another and searching for programs, but it
certainly is not universal in that it will control other components. Also,
even if it finds things in a search, you still have to read the screen to
see menus and results. The iPhone doesn't read what is on the TV screen.
Good luck, and I hope others are aware of better solutions.

Hi Jeff,
Since you have an IPhone, I think there is an app that will, are you sitting
down? It will let your IPhone become a universal remote for TVs, etc.
So, for you IPhone experts, (Which I'm not one), is there such an app?
If there is Jeff, that, will be a great app for ya!

older VCRs too that I want a program for it.
