It all runs from a small phone app I built that doubles as a remote with a touchpad.

Just patience and a good AI pair programmer.

Cheap hardware, but it finally feels like mine. 🙌

Bought a cheap Android TV stick. Box said Android 14 + 8GB RAM.

Reality: Android 9 and about 2GB. 😅

So I rebuilt it with @claudeai as my coding partner, and turned a cheap stick into one of my favourite thing in the house. 🧵

At night it turns into a big flip clock, inspired by the Mac screensaver, and dims itself so the room stays dark. 🕰️

Alarms too, with sounds to choose from. The TV is my bedside clock now.

When my phone rings, the movie pauses and the TV shows "Incoming call". 📞

Hang up and it picks up right where it left off.

Built my own app for it, TV Notes. 📝

I type a note on my phone and it lands on the TV home screen. Add a reminder and at that exact time the TV pauses whatever I'm watching, chimes and pops the note up.

Swapped the cluttered home screen for a clean one with classic oil paintings in the background. 🖼️

I can switch the theme (space, cities, animals, anything I type) straight from my phone.

First surprise: it shipped with sus system apps, one disguised as an official Android app, plus a hidden setting that leaves the whole box open to anyone on your Wi-Fi.

Cleared the junk out.

If you own one of these cheap TV boxes, check what's running on it.

@DifferentKaro I'm not talking about the scale but the price, that's outrageously expensive
