Software
Development Kit for LG’s Upgraded Universal Remote Control Now Available to All Developers
Karachi, October 28, 2013 — #LG #Electronics (LG) announced the global availability of the Software Development
Kit (SDK) for developers to create new functions on LG’s upgraded #QuickRemote
platform, a UX feature which allows the use of certain LG #smartphones as a universal
remote control. The new and enhanced QuickRemote version 3.0 will make its debut on LG’s flagship G2
smartphone.
Developers can create customized
QuickRemote solutions for a variety of users, such as larger text and buttons
for the elderly or animated buttons for the young at heart. Macro-buttons to control
multiple devices with a single press, such as controlling a TV and set-top box
together, is also possible with the QuickRemote SDK. Apps developed using the
new SDK can be shared on LG SmartWorld or Google Play.
QuickRemote, which
first debuted on the LG Vu:2, provides an easy-to-use interface for users to control their TVs, set-top boxes, audio systems or even air conditioners. QuickRemote 3.0 has been upgraded
with the intelligent Learning
Function and the
ability to control a wider range of devices. With Learning Function, QuickRemote can be “taught” to replicate any infrared (IR) remote
control device, regardless of the manufacturer. A single LG smartphone equipped
with QuickRemote can replace every remote control in the home, reducing clutter
and putting an end to the days of the lost remote.
“QuickRemote is an
example of our user-centric approach to offering the best UX on any mobile platform
today,” said Dr. Jong-seok Park, president and CEO
of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “And the QuickRemote SDK
will provide operators and developers with an easy tool to
personalize LG smartphones for specific target audiences.”
The QuickRemote SDK is
already available for downloading at LG’s developer website (http://developer.lge.com).
