Remote commands is a feature of the Tealium iOS and Android libraries that allows native code to be triggered in a third-party vendor SDK.

Remote commands are implemented in two ways:

### **Vendor Integrations**

Vendor integrations are pre-built remote command modules that implement a vendor's native API.

### **Custom Commands**

Custom commands offer an open framework to define your own native methods that trigger the Custom Remote Command tag in Tealium iQ Tag Management.
