On my Note 3 I also played with Touchsquid using their trial mode. Pretty good, I will agree. But I also spent a ton of time working with AnyMote by ColorTiger and that is where I ended up. I too am pleased with it.

One thing about the Note 3... I do wish I could use the included IR to "learn" from other remotes in those cases (not many I have found) where the device is not in or not fully supported. Some other phones have the ability to do this. Any inexpensive way to add this capability, maybe through the headphone jack or the USB port, would be appreciated.

And I also read that the IR has been removed from the later Samsung devices. What a shame!
