The server's web interface works on any screen with a browser, and it's free. The native apps are for the television itself, where a mouse doesn't exist, focus has to land where you expect, and a channel change should feel instant. Apple TV, Android TV and Android phones are available today; iPhone and iPad are with Apple for review.
Connect your TV app to a running Mimir server on the same network. Native apps have a free trial and require a subscription after it. Check the app store for trial eligibility, duration, local pricing and renewal terms.

In review
What they share
One server, one setup, every screen
Every app talks to the same server over the same interface, so what you configure once is what every device sees.
They find the server themselves
Open the app on the same network and your server is already listed. No addresses, no ports, no re-entering anything when your router changes its mind.
Pairing without typing
The TV shows a short code, you approve it from your phone, and that device gets its own hardware-backed key. Nothing is keyed in on a remote, ever.
The same guide everywhere
Your lineup, your channel order, your names and logos, identical on the Apple TV in the lounge and the phone in your bag.
Record from the sofa
Find a programme in the guide, press record, and the server takes it from there, including the padding you set once and never think about again.
Revocable, one at a time
Every device is listed on the server with when it was last seen. Remove one and only that one stops working.
Watch it before it finishes
In-progress recordings play and seek on every platform, so a programme that started an hour ago is watchable from the beginning right now.
Before you install anything
You don't need an app to start
The server includes a full web interface, and it isn't a cut-down fallback; it's the same guide grid, the same channel management, the same scheduling and the same playback the apps use, running in any modern browser. Plenty of people will find it's all they ever need, particularly on a laptop or a tablet.
The apps exist for the ten-foot experience: a television, a remote control, and someone who wants to change channel without thinking about it. If that's your living room, that's what they're for.
The server is free and stays free regardless. The apps are free to download and need a subscription to use, with a free trial to start, and that's what pays for the work on both.
