What this Carrier AC remote app is
Remote for Carrier AC is an Android app that acts as a remote control for Carrier air conditioning units. It is published by the developer myapps. and is described on its listing as not officially affiliated with Carrier.
The phone works through its infrared transmitter, the hardware that sends signals to the unit. That transmitter is the link the whole app depends on.
Using a phone as an infrared remote for Carrier units
The app's job is to send control commands to a Carrier AC unit from the phone in place of the physical remote. The listing gives no further detail on individual functions.
Because the control runs over infrared, the phone has to be pointed toward the unit to send its signal. The listing describes this as the basis of operation.
Skipping setup with an infrared phone remote
The developer advertises the app as needing no setup before use. That is the main selling point on the listing, and it is the reason the app is aimed at people who want to start controlling the unit straight away.
The one requirement the listing states is an infrared transmitter in the phone. Phones without that hardware cannot send the signal the app depends on.
Owners of Carrier units who want a phone remote
The app suits people who own a Carrier air conditioner and have a phone with an infrared transmitter. It is built around that single purpose: operating a Carrier unit without a separate remote.
Anyone who wants a remote for a different brand, or a phone without an infrared transmitter, is outside what the listing describes.
