Flipper Remote for Direct TV
Does the Flipper remote work with Direct TV? Will it turn the TV on and off and allow channel/volume selections without using the genie?
My brother in law with dementia recently moved out of state and Direct TV is their new cable provider. The genie is much too difficult for him to master - Help!

Well, it's supposed to support DirecTV boxes. But the reviews on Amazon are somewhat mixed ....

You might want to give it a try. You can always return it to Amazon if it's not working for your brother-in-law.
Keep us posted.

The OP has DirecTV (satellite) not DIRECTV STREAM. The satellite boxes are not Android.

Give it a try. If it works great, but if not then just return it. Please post back so other users can know before hand.
And just a caution, it is DirecTV, not Direct TV (one word, one 'T'). That way you don't get caught by any scams.
