Dijit 3.0 for iOS update: Control TV, DVR, Roku & more from an iPad

The free Dijit for iOS app works with the Griffin Beacon to turn an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad into a universal remote control. It does this by accepting commands from the iOS device via Bluetooth and then relaying those commands via infrared to a variety of consumer electronics devices. Until now, however, did not scale to the iPad’s larger display. The 3.0.0 update fixes this by providing a universal app that works with the iPad’s larger display.

The screenshot above shows what Dijit’s channel guide looked like on an iPad in 1x display mode. The screenshot below shows the same guide after the update. Tapping on a specific program listing displays show details in the large right sidebar. Oddly, a few channels are listed incorrectly in the guide for my specific provider. Syfy, for example, is on channel 557. However, Dijit’s channel guide shows it on channel 1557 which is a number in a range beyond what is available. Channels near 557 show up correctly.
