About this app

Universal TV Remote turns your phone into a TV remote for your Smart TV and your IR TV. Control Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL, Hisense, Vizio, Philips, Roku and Fire TV over Wi-Fi, or any television with your phone's IR blaster. No setup: open the app, pick your TV, start controlling it.

SMART TV REMOTE OVER WI-FI
Universal TV Remote finds the Smart TVs on your Wi-Fi network automatically and connects in a tap. Supported platforms include Android TV, Google TV, Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Hisense VIDAA, Vizio SmartCast, Philips, Sony Bravia and many more.

• Full TV remote: power, volume, mute, channels, D-pad, back, home, input
• Keyboard: type searches and passwords with your phone instead of the TV remote
• Voice search on TVs that support it
• Touchpad and mouse mode for Android TV, Google TV and Fire TV
• Apps: open Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video and your other TV apps with one tap
• Saves every TV you connect to, so next time it is one tap away

IR TV REMOTE — NO WI-FI NEEDED
If your phone has an IR blaster (many Xiaomi, Redmi, POCO, Huawei, Honor and older Samsung phones do), Universal TV Remote works as an infrared TV remote for thousands of TV models, including older, non-smart televisions. Choose your TV brand, pick a model, and the remote is ready.

HOW TO CONNECT
1. For a Smart TV: connect your phone and TV to the same Wi-Fi network and open the app. Your TV appears in the list.
2. Select it. Some TVs show a pairing code on screen the first time; enter it once and it is remembered.
3. For an IR TV: open IR TV Remotes, choose the brand, and point your phone at the TV.

WHY PEOPLE KEEP THIS TV REMOTE APP
• Finds TVs automatically, with no account and no setup
• One remote control app for the living room, bedroom and office TVs
• A clear, dark design made for one-handed use in a dark room
• Works when the original TV remote is lost, broken or out of batteries
• Used by millions of people in more than 100 countries

PREMIUM
Universal TV Remote is free to download and use. An optional Premium subscription removes ads. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be managed or cancelled at any time in Google Play.

GOOD TO KNOW
• Wi-Fi control needs the phone and TV on the same network. Some TVs must allow control from mobile apps in their settings (for example Roku and Samsung).
• IR control needs a phone with a built-in IR blaster. The app tells you if your phone does not have one.
• Universal TV Remote is an independent app. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any TV manufacturer. Brand names are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility.

If a TV or a button does not work for you, write to us through Settings in the app. We read every message and fix what we can in the next update.

Ratings and reviews

I needed a remote for the TVs at work, and this seemed to fit the bill. However, as I was setting it up, I was taken to a page that appeared as part of the setup process, for verification, requesting credit card information, along with the assurance that I wouldn't be charged for anything. Within minutes, two charges were attempted on my credit card, for unspecified subscriptions. Now, the app worked as it was supposed to, but I have to hold this app designer responsible for the phishing.

Not sure how people manage to use this app. Every time you click anything there's an ad and some of the ads are so blended with the app that you don't realize you're clicking on them incidentally until it redirects you to another app. I couldn't even get through setup. I can't find my actual TV remote because we've used the cable providers remote for so long and all I need to do is change the input option on my TV. Smh. 20 minutes later and this app still isn't installed. Don't waste your time.

Worked decently well, had it for about 5 minutes but the ads were obnoxious. So I checked how much it was to remove ads, there were 2 separate prices one was like 5 bucks and some change just to remove bigger adds and one for either 15 or 9 to remove all the ads. I uninstalled after that, you didn't need to charge more then maybe 5 bucks to remove all ads.
