Turn your iOS device into an AV command center. DJ from your phone to keep the party going or do away with the hunt-and-peck tedium of the Apple TV remote by searching for YouTube videos with a real QWERTY keyboard. OK, it's a touchscreen QWERTY keyboard, but still.

WIRED Mom-friendly setup. Apple made it, so it plays nice with anything out of Cupertino.

TIRED Takes a second to reconnect to the target device whenever you switch out of the app.
