About TV Remotely: Smart TV Remote
Your iPhone is already beside you. Make it your Wi-Fi TV remote: change channels, navigate with a touchpad, type on supported TVs and open your favorite TV apps. No ads. No subscription. No account required. A REMOTE FOR EVERYDAY WATCHING Use the D-pad, swipe touchpad, number pad or media controls. Adjust TV volume, change channels, go Home and return to what you were watching. Save your TVs and switch between them without entering the address each time. LESS CLICKING, MORE TYPING Use Type on TV to enter text with your phone's keyboard where supported. Text entry depends on the TV and the app or field you are using; it is not available on every model. YOUR FAVORITES, CLOSE AT HAND Pin three TV apps to your remote. Create scenes that run a sequence of supported commands, open a TV app or pause between steps. Use widgets and Shortcuts on supported iOS versions for quicker access. PUT YOUR PHOTOS ON THE BIG SCREEN Cast personal photos and videos to compatible receivers on your local network. Screen mirroring is available with supported receivers and requires confirmation in the iOS system broadcast prompt. Casting and mirroring support vary by TV, media format and network. CHECK YOUR TV BEFORE YOU CONNECT Supports compatible Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Sony BRAVIA, Roku, Android TV, Google TV, Amazon Fire TV and Vizio SmartCast devices, with additional platforms listed in Supported TVs. A brand name alone does not guarantee compatibility: model, operating system and firmware matter. Your phone and TV must be on the same Wi-Fi network. Allow Local Network access, keep the TV awake and follow its pairing prompt. Fire TV requires ADB debugging. Some TVs need network remote control enabled in their settings. Looking for a replacement for a lost remote? Your TV must already be connected to the network. Initial setup or pairing may still require its physical remote. This app does not use infrared and cannot control a TV without a supported network connection. Power-on, typing, app launching and casting depend on your TV's capabilities. LOCAL CONTROL, CLEAR CHOICES TV commands and selected media travel directly between your phone and TV without our cloud relay. Pairing credentials are stored in the iOS Keychain. Optional usage and crash diagnostics can be turned off in Settings > Privacy & data. TV Remotely supplies no streaming content. Streaming services may require their own accounts or subscriptions.

What’s new
Version 1.1.10 · Updated November 12, 2026
• Traditional Chinese is now available, and iQIYI and WeTV are in Apps for Chinese-language users. • On TVs that can list their apps, All Apps now shows exactly the apps installed on your TV. • Some older Samsung TVs (2016 and earlier) that could not connect now can. • A TV that drops the connection right after connecting is no longer retried endlessly. • Roku: a button the Roku refuses no longer disconnects the remote. • If Local Network access is off for TV Remotely, the app now tells you and shows where to turn it on, instead of just failing to connect. • Google TV and Android TV: if the TV has forgotten your iPhone or iPad, a new pairing code is offered straight away. • Tapping a TV that’s switched off no longer waits again for a wake that has just failed.
