Universal remote app for iphone?

Anyone have any suggestions? I searched the app store but when you look at the ratings for some of these apps they all suck.

Have you bought an IR plug in for your phone?

I have a Logitech Harmony remote that also has an app. The app works ok but I’d rather use the remote. It replaced a very expensive 10 year old Universal Remote and is not as advanced, but is far easier to use. For example, the Universal Remote could control multiple zones but was impossible to decipher by someone unfamiliar with it. If we had a pet sitter over, or our parents visiting, they didn’t know what to do with it. I haven’t figured out how to get the Logitech to control multiple zones (so I use another remote) but anyone can pick it and figure out how to watch TV or AppleTV, change channels, etc.
