I originally downloaded this app so I didn't have to buy a remote for my canon DSLR... I always have my phone, so why buy hardware I don't need?
The other day I was at a popular takeaway restaurant before heading to the airport, as I had a few hours to kill I decided to hang around up stairs and enjoy the air conditioning.
The Circle was on TV (for those unfamiliar, it's an Australian morning discussion show). I couldn't have this on the last day of my vacation, so I pulled out my phone and downloaded what appeared to be a generic remote for an LG TV... Previously impossible to change channels as the TV is behind glass.
After adding some buttons I was able to do some channel surfing, I came across Gilligan's island and settled. Finding it hard to hear I went ahead and turned up the volume.
A puzzled staff member walked past and noticed the channel had been changed, shortly returning with a remote to change it back.
Moments after she flicked through the channels to find the god awful Circle, I flicked it back. Becoming frustrated and confused she went too close to the TV for my remote to hit the sensor.
She had won the battle...
I added some more buttons to my remote. Before you know it the only channel remaining on the TV was the 24hr foreign news station.
Before leaving I changed the menu language to Korean and turned the volume to 100%.
Oops.
