Teclado Flix -- Netflix remote

You've got a non-smart TV, you've got a laptop, you've got an HDMI cable or similar, and you've obviously got a kick-ass Android phone.
There's a problem though. The laptop is next to the TV, and you are far from it. Not really great to operate the whole setup.
Teclado Flix comes to the rescue with all its swag!

If you are lazy and you think it's just not humanly possible to get up from your chair just to pause the video or go back a few seconds in the movie because your dog barked when the most important detail of the plot was revealed.

Sure, you could use a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard, but this is not the 2000s anymore. Also you never remember the keyboard shorcuts and operating a mouse is tricky and slow when you are lying down on your couch... Not to mention remote controls on phones have much more swag!

One technical detail: You will need a tiny program on your computer (that doesn't even require to be installed, just put it on your desktop). Once the computer app is started, the phone app should be able to detect your computer.
Read the Help page from the phone app to learn more.

The computer app works on all versions of Windows, OS X, and Linux.
(Spoiler alert: There is a GUI on all systems, but launching the app might require the use of the terminal on OS X and Linux.)
