Latest News Windows7 and Symbian^3

Nokia N8, Bluetooth Remote has been tested on a Symbian^3 phone so is ready for the Nokia N8, C7, C6-01 and E7 etc.


Win 7 Home 64bit.  Bluetooth Remote works with Win7 Home 64 bit and iTunes. Thanks to "cyto" for testing.

Sony Play Station 3 I have had some emails asking if this works with Sony Play Station 3. A couple of people have tried but could not get it to work. I think this is because although the PS3 uses Bluetooth it does not support the AVRCP profile. I believe the PS3 uses the HID (Human device interface) profile which is for keyboards, joysticks, mice etc, rather than AVRCP which is for audio and video remote control. If I get any more information I'll post here.

iPhone iPod According to Apple iPhone and iPod touch both support Bluetooth AVRCP profile, play, pause and stop. This means that you should be able to use the Bluetooth remote on a Symbian phone to control the music player on iphone and iPod touch. I have tested with a iPod touch and only play seems to work, pause and stop do not. Here is what Apple say about AVRCP support: Apple support for AVRCP I'll update this if I get any further informaton.

The latest Bluetooth Remote FAQ information is here and Videos here:

  4. Jason - No you cannot run Bluetooth Remote on a Android device, but you may be able to control a Andriod device if it supports the Bluetooth AVRCP Profile.

    Jabba_29 It may be able to control Apple TV if that supports the Bluetooth AVRCP Profile.
