I use MythMote and it works well. I also use and recommend the Harmony
Smart Control ($70 refurbed) with its phone app and RF remote for my other
devices. I haven't tried it with the Myth FE yet because it's in my
basement (HDMI-split to 5 screens across the house) and I have to drill
another hole from my Living Room to get the IR blaster down there. But I'm
getting off topic...

To defend the questions, I'm a fan of as many points of ingress as
possible. I also have a Samsung phone and hey, why not get the IR app
working with Myth? That's why we build our own DVRs, right? Because we can?
