Does anyone know of a way to control iTunes on an iPad remotely?
I have my iPad connected to my home stereo and I'd like to control iTunes on that iPad with either my iPhone, Mac or Windows computer. I also have an Apple watch if that makes a difference.

I'm aware of the Apple Remote app, though that appears to only allow you to control a library on your computer or control an AppleTV remotely.

If not, does anyone know of a physical remote control that'll work with a 9.7" iPad (MR7F2LL/A)?

Thanks in advance.

‘didn’t check for other options but looks like that would work - I guess a cheap BT keyboard with media controls would too - but a stand-alone remote seems convenient
