Frequently asked questions
Useful answers before you download.
Which TVs work with TVRemoteX?
TVRemoteX works with selected compatible smart TVs and TV devices from Samsung, LG, Roku, Android TV, Google TV, Fire TV, Apple TV, Sony, Hisense, TCL, Philips, Panasonic, VIZIO, Sharp, Toshiba, Xiaomi and more. Support varies by model and firmware.
Do the iPhone and TV need to be on the same Wi-Fi?
Yes for normal local-network discovery and control. Guest Wi-Fi, client isolation, VPNs or router restrictions can prevent the devices from seeing each other.
How do I approve the first connection?
Keep the TV awake and follow the TV-side prompt or current pairing code. The exact step depends on its operating system.
Does iPhone keyboard input work everywhere?
No. The TV route and the active text field must both accept input. Protected or unsupported fields may require the TV keyboard.
Is TVRemoteX free to use?
TVRemoteX is free to download. Some advanced features, including Home Screen widgets and selected controls, may require an in-app purchase. Check the app for available access, any trial allowance and purchase options. Prices and renewal terms are shown before you confirm a purchase.
Does TVRemoteX work on iPad?
Yes. TVRemoteX runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS or iPadOS 16.0 or later, and the iPad layout works in portrait, landscape and Split View. The iPad must be on the same home network as the TV.
Is photo and video casting the same as screen mirroring?
No. TVRemoteX can send personal photos and compatible video files through supported casting routes. It does not promise continuous live mirroring of every iPhone screen or protected streaming app.
