Kore: Your Direct Remote Control for the Kodi Media Center

Kore is the official remote control application for the Kodi media center, designed to replace your physical remote with a full-featured, touch-based command interface. Instead of navigating menus with a directional pad, Kore transforms your Android device into a comprehensive control hub, allowing you to browse libraries, manage playback, and send text input directly to your Kodi instance. The app requires an active Wi-Fi or local network connection to discover and communicate with a running Kodi server, establishing a direct control link without intermediary cloud services.

Core Functionality and Control Tools

The application connects to any Kodi instance on your local network via automatic discovery or manual IP entry. Once paired, Kore provides a real-time interface that mirrors the current playback state, including track title, artist, album art, and progress bar. The primary control surface includes standard transport buttons: play, pause, stop, skip forward, skip backward, and a volume slider. For advanced control, the app exposes a gesture-based input pad that simulates mouse movements and clicks, enabling navigation through Kodi’s menu hierarchy without physical buttons.

• Library Browsing and Search: Access your complete Kodi media library (movies, TV shows, music, add-ons) directly from the app. Filter by genre, year, or rating, and initiate playback with a single tap.
• Now Playing Queue Management: View the current playlist, reorder tracks, remove items, or add new content to the queue without interrupting playback.
• Text Input and Keyboard Support: Use your device’s native keyboard to search for content, enter credentials, or type URLs into Kodi’s search fields—eliminates the need for on-screen keyboard navigation.
• Remote Control Widget: Place a persistent widget on your home screen that provides one-tap access to volume control, play/pause, and next/previous track commands.
• Multi-Instance Support: Manage multiple Kodi installations across different devices (e.g., living room, bedroom, office) and switch between them instantly from a dropdown menu.

Key Advantages for Daily Use

Kore eliminates the friction of physical remotes by offering a responsive, low-latency connection that updates in real time. The app’s interface is optimized for one-handed operation, with large touch targets and swipeable panels for quick navigation. Background connection management ensures the app reconnects automatically when the device wakes from sleep. Additionally, Kore supports Kodi’s native JSON-RPC API, meaning it works with all Kodi versions (v17 and above) without requiring additional add-ons or server-side modifications.
