Long Copy

Rooster is a Wake-on-LAN app for the Apple TV. The app brings devices on the local network out of standby mode via the standard Wake-on-LAN protocol. Its primary use-case is to keep media servers — either PC/Mac file servers or dedicated network-attached storage (NAS) devices — in standby mode and turn it on only when needed. Unlike current competitors for the Apple TV, Rooster detects devices automatically via Bonjour for easy setup and also provides an option to wake-up devices from the home screen.

System Requirements

  • Apple TV (4th generation)
  • tvOS 10.2 (minimum)
  • Wake-on-LAN compliant network devices

Features

  • Turn on devices on the local network via Wake-on-LAN.
  • Automatically detects MAC address and host name via Bonjour.
  • Top Shelf extension for quick access to devices in the network.
