Tv remote control app galaxy s3

I would like to use my Galaxy S3 as a TV remote for my Sony Bravia (no wi-fi).
Can someone suggest suitable TV remote apps that I can use?
Thanks.

The galaxy s3 doesn't have a rf blaster. It can't be used as a remote. Only the gs4 and up have it.

If you have comcast, they have an app that shows what's on, and changes channels for you. Even let's you record shows. Look for the XFINITY app.
If another provider, check to see what apps might be available.

AC App on SGS3

Thanks for the info mate.
Will get rid of my S3 and buy S4 this weekend.

I believe you are mistaken. Don't think the S7 has one either, for example.

GS4 up to GS6 has it. Then Samsung removed it after that.
