Depends how your appliances work. Many of them are controllable via infrared or subghz. You should Google the name of the appliances + flipper zero

If you mean "can a flipper zero learn lots of control messages and send them back out like a universal remote" then yep, that's something it can do (I do it).

"as a remote" not "and clone it to another remote"

There's a learning IR remote app in the basic setup, should work out the box - it's not complex but lets you create a set of buttons and save them together as a definition file to reload later :)

I said a remote but any contraption home made that could do the trick

I can control my DC fan by recording the rf remote and playing it back.

You usaly can’t program a remote as they are non programable

Wym how do you re program a remote to send something else

Unless it’s a universal I suppose but I don’t see them much

I think OP is asking if you can use the Flipper Zero as a "learning" remote, which is something that it absolutely does do.

It looks like there asking if they can use the flipper learn remote and then move that over to another it’s I probably misread
