Apple TV Remote app no longer available at the App Store — Apple World Today

According to 9to5 Mac, the removal of the app from the App Store isn’t surprising.  Apple has added the Remote feature built into the Control Center in iOS 12, so Apple TV users can have access to all the controls on Siri Remote without having to download any app.

If you need a Mac app for controlling an iTunes “stream,” you might check out BarTunes, TunesBar+, and/or MiniPlayer. I haven’t tested ‘em out, but they might be of interest to someone who misses the Apple TV Remote for some reason.
