As a Huawei Honor 6 owner, you should know that your phone has infrared port and you can use your device as a remote control for your electronic devices like TVs, ACs, DVD players etc. Sadly some models of Honor 6 ( such as Indian model) lack built-in remote control app and their users can’t use this feature until they install remote controller applications required.
For example LG G2 has built-in remote app and its users need not to install it from anywhere else. Galaxy S5, Note 3 are also the same case and these phones have pre-installed remote app that works with infrared. Okay, let’s cut to the chase and lets talk about Honor 6.
