FAQ
Questions, answered
Which TVs does Remote TV work with?
Samsung, LG, Roku, Fire TV, Android TV and Google TV, Apple TV, Vizio, VIDAA and Xumo TV — including TVs from Sony, TCL, Hisense, Toshiba, Philips, Panasonic, Sharp, Insignia, onn, Element, Pioneer and Westinghouse that run these systems.
Does it use infrared? Will it work away from home?
Remote TV works over your Wi‑Fi, so it doesn’t need infrared and works on any iPhone or iPad. Your device has to be on the same Wi‑Fi network as the TV — it won’t work over mobile data or from another house.
Why does it ask for Local Network access?
That’s how Remote TV finds your TV and sends it commands over your Wi‑Fi. Without it, the app can’t see your TV. You can turn it on or off anytime in iOS Settings ▸ Remote TV.
My TV shows a code or asks me to allow the connection
That happens once per TV. Select Allow with your TV’s remote, or type the code shown on the TV into Remote TV. Brand‑by‑brand steps are on the Support page.
How do I cancel a subscription or free trial?
On your iPhone or iPad, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Choose Remote TV and tap Cancel Subscription. To avoid being charged, cancel at least 24 hours before the trial or current period ends. Deleting the app doesn’t cancel a subscription.
Does Remote TV collect my data?
There’s no account and no ads. The TVs you pair with are saved on your device, and remote commands go straight to your TV over your network (except some Xumo TVs). The app collects usage and crash data and purchase records to run and improve the app — the Privacy Policy has the details.
