Looking to consolidate all the bullshit remotes for my living room. I remember using harmony remotes which worked ok. I would like a touchscreen if I can get it. A iOS app to program it would be good too but not sure if that�s something that�s available.

Bit of a bump here, but I was looking into this when my dog half ate my remote. The answer is that the Logitech Harmony series are pretty much the game. You can get a touch screen if you pay enough money, and I think app programming is standard across the line. The set up process is a giant pile of poo poo, but you'll do it once then forget about it for years until you change your set up.

If you are a glutton for punishment and also cheap I got a set of used universal remotes from eBay for TV cable boxes. They "Work" not the best but I don't have to get up.
