About the iRule

The iRule is an application that transforms the iPhone/iPod Touch and iPad into a universal remote control. The iRule allows you to control all of your audio video gear simply and reliably. The iRule focuses on a simple user experience that allows non experts the ability to quickly and easily create a powerful custom remote.

The iRule Builder is the editor that allows the end user to create the remote interface. Unlike many solutions today, the iRule Builder is both simple to use and powerful. You do not need to be an installer to create a remote interface using the iRule Builder, simply drag and drop elements to create your interface. Since the iRule Builder is an online application, you can access your remote from any location without the need to install a resource intensive application on your PC or Mac.

The iRule is a software that allows you to customize your interface for your existing needs. When your needs change, the iRule can accommodate with quick and easy changes. With the iRule being a software solution, it can be upgraded without the need to spend additional money on new hardware. Also, unlike many remotes, the iRule does not have a limitation of the number of devices it can control.

The iRule is more than an application on the iPhone- It is an ecosystem to support the control of your AV gear. The iRule is connected to an online database containing codes for additional devices as well as interface templates. Users of the iRule can share new devices that they programmed and the interface they created. This community allows for seamless integration and sharing between anyone using the iRule.

The iRule can control any Infra Red (IR), RS232 or Ethernet enabled audio video device. Until now, the ability to control such a diverse group of devices with two way communication was limited to very high end solution that were out of the reach of most people.
