TVO Remote doesn’t work with TiVo Mini
I bought this to use with the Mini in the bedroom, but it doesn’t 😢. Is there something I need to do to make it access the Mini and not the main box?

Still works fine in 2025
If you’re the rare individual that still uses a TiVo DVR, then you should know this app still works well as of 10/8/25. I’ve been using it on Apple Watch to control my Roamio OTA. It does seem to be slightly slow, at least via Apple Watch. It can take up to 2 seconds for the TiVo to react after pressing a button, but it always responds so be patient. Also it does NOT seem to be able to control a TiVo mini. Those are the only two issues I noticed.
