Use Tidbyt phone app like a TV remote

The vision: I open the Tidbyt app on my phone, scroll to the applet I want to see on the screen, tap it, and it appears on Tidbyt screen until I close it out on my phone.


Often when I’m showing someone Tidbyt for the first time, I want to show them a particular app. But we have to sit and wait through the cycle and hope we don’t miss it. Other times I want to check a particular thing real quick and just want to be able to tap it on my phone and see it instantly.

Adding this “TV remote” functionality would be huge. It kind of does this already-- when you save settings on an existing app, it jumps to that app on the screen. But I’m imagining it being a much simpler single tap and then not continuing the cycle until I want it to.
