Forget about having lots of remote controls at home, and forget about searching them on the side of the couch, now you can have a very unique Universal Remote, at the palm of your hand.

A great idea, that gets closer to be real.

InstaMote makes a huge difference in terms of durability and functionality, every single InfraRed controlled device is compatible, also, any iOS 5+, or Android 2.3+ device is fully compatible.

Also, this compatibility makes possible the use of any app that controls the Samsung Galaxy IR Blaster, or the designed app for iOS.

The app is being developed as fast as possible, but take a look to some examples:

Don't spend lots of money in senseless "Universal" Remotes, use an unique solution, that will change all your old remotes


We are closer to get this product done:

  • We have done many small projects like this before, and now, we reached a new stage.
  • The InstaMote has a built-in battery that allows to use in a comfortable way it's IR module.  This battery lasts approximately 6 months under heavy usage, and can be easily replaced.
  • Several experiments took place to improve space usage (meaning size of the product) and now we have the first functional prototype, manufactured with the help of a Korean and Chinese company, that builds similar modules
  • The packaging it's intended to save your InstaMote and give a nice aspect on the final product.

The InstaMote, compared to the remote control, has a bigger working range, and more compatibility than a standard universal remote.
