Score: 5.0/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 4, Documentation: 7, Utility: 5)

LocalTV Remote turns a phone browser into a wireless mouse, keyboard, and media controller for Windows PCs over the local network, with no phone app required. It offers a polished PWA-style controller with trackpad gestures, text input, media keys, and volume control, paired via QR code or six-digit code. It fills a small but real gap for quick PC control from a phone without installing client software on the phone.

Target audience: Windows users, presenters, home theater users, developers needing quick input from a phone
