- Pressing the button on the bottom right leads to all buttons, which are not available in the main view.

- Sync your app with the current available EPG events from TV by clicking on 'sync' button/icon in navigation bar.
- For recording or reminding choose one single event from the EPG overview. Here you will also find additional program information.
- In "settings" you can select a favorite list for your EPG events.
- Be sure to connect a storage device for the records.
#Wake On LAN
- Tapping a list entry send the wake up signal to the corresponding device.
- Long pressing an entry allows to edit or remove it.
If your device does not respond to the sent wake up signal make sure that your device is a) currently in standby, b) in the right wifi network or c) you entered the MAC address correctly.
