About this app

Control your compatible Samsung Smart TV from your phone. Change channels, adjust the volume, open TV apps and type with your phone’s keyboard — all over Wi-Fi.

Whether your remote is lost, out of batteries or simply across the room, this remote control app gives you another way to manage your television. Connect your phone and TV to the same Wi-Fi network to get started.

What you can do:

• Control the essentials: change channels, adjust the volume, mute the sound and switch inputs.
• Navigate your TV: use directional arrows, the OK button, touch controls, Home, Back, Menu and playback buttons.
• Type with your phone: enter text in supported TV apps and search fields using your phone’s keyboard.
• Launch TV apps: open supported apps installed on your television in one tap.
• Mirror your screen: display your phone screen on your TV to view photos, presentations and other supported content on a larger screen.
• Switch between TVs: connect to several compatible televisions and choose which one to control.
• Reconnect quickly: get back to controlling a previously connected TV.

How to connect:

1. Connect your phone and TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
2. Open the app and select your TV.
3. Approve the connection on the TV if prompted.
4. Start using the remote, keyboard, app launcher or screen mirroring.

Compatibility:

Designed for compatible Samsung Smart TVs with network remote-control support. Available controls, power functions, keyboard input, app launching and screen mirroring depend on the TV model, software version and supported features. Some TVs require confirmation on the television when connecting for the first time.

I've tried dozens of apps for a substitute remote for my TV. This is the only app that I have no complaints. It just works, like the name says, remote for Samsung TV. It has every function, it doesn't lag or have delayed response, it STAYS CONNECTED, and there are no ads!! It's quiet, and light touch, without vibration. After the headaches the other apps gave me, this one is a godsend. No notes.

better than expected with time to use it between apps, and that's a Huge difference... the first two remotes I downloaded kept flipping on and off with ads so often, that, how do I get to give them an extremely bad review, but it got to be too overwhelming and frustrating for me to use the app for 10 minutes. this one has its apps, but they're well placed, they don't do stuff just because you happen to just be pushing buttons, but I feel like the other ones wait until you push a button before..

Overall, the app is a 4. My TV doesn't stay linked to the remote after x amount of time. I have to unpair to then pair again for it to work. If it didn't constantly do that, I would easily rate a 5. It's a great set up, easy to use, easy layout, and works well (when it's paired). I do recommend this app for its ease of use.

Thank you for the thoughtful review and recommendation! We'd like to investigate why you need to repeatedly unpair and pair again. Please write to us by email with your TV and phone models, and let us know whether the connection drops during use or after the TV has been turned off.
