Hi Strands fans. Interestingly, I spent half of this puzzle thinking it was about something completely different.

That misconception started when I found BACK in the bottom-right corner, followed by POWER along the left-hand side.

At this point, I thought it was all about physical phone buttons, so I quickly found VOLUME in the top-right corner and MUTE below it.

It was only when I found CHANNEL in the top-left corner that I realized this was actually about the bigger screen. Sure enough, I was able to connect the spangram of REMOTECONTROL from the bottom of the grid to the top.

With that knowledge, the last two were trivial to find. GUIDE was on the right-hand side, while HOME finished off the puzzle in the bottom-leftcorner.
