The 2 is set up in the lounge and one B is set up in the kitchen for the "chef". So far, the 2 is ok, but I find it is slower than the B, running Kodi. There could be reasons for this. More research is needed. Another post for another day.
We have only one keyboard remote.
There are, however, android devices used at Lamas HQ.
To avoid having to attach a mouse, also, to avoid getting up from the chair, an app called Yatse works quite well. It is a download from the Google Play store, which controls the Pi using the wireless network. (There are probably some for Apple but I have no Apple devices portable or otherwise and don't get involved with Apple.)
It can also be useful when He gets all " my precious " over the remote controls.
It has to be running on the same wireless network and, if you have more than one Pi, you can also set up both devices on the same remote app and switch between them when necessary.
There is a set up wizard that makes it all easy to get it up and running and most of the information required, (IP address, webserver port) is found in the settings, system information on the Pi itself.
