How TVRemoteX verifies this guide →Connection steps
Confirm the TV platform first
Open the TV's About, Support or System information screen and note the operating system or model. Multi-platform brands such as Hisense, TCL, Toshiba, Philips, Sony and Xiaomi can use different control routes.
Put both devices on the same local network
Connect the iPhone and TV to the same home router. Do not use guest Wi-Fi, a VPN that captures local traffic, or router client isolation while pairing.
Allow iPhone Local Network access
When iOS asks, choose Allow. If it was denied, open Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network > TVRemoteX, enable TVRemoteX, return to the app and scan again.
Keep the TV awake, then select it in TVRemoteX
Leave the TV on its Home screen, open TVRemoteX, start discovery and choose the matching device name. Do not approve a request you did not initiate.
Pairing behavior
Enable AQUOS IP Control and enter the Login ID and Password configured on the TV. These are persistent credentials, not the television's parental-control PIN.
Verify control before relying on advanced features
Test Home, Back and one volume command first. Keyboard, app launch, wake and casting are separate capabilities and may not be exposed by the selected route.
Security boundary
Pair only on a trusted home network. Remove old authorizations or disable developer/network-control settings when you no longer need them.

Roku, Android/Google TV and Xumo are not AQUOS credential routesSymptoms and fixes
| What you see | Likely cause | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| The TV does not appear | Local Network permission, guest Wi-Fi, VPN or client isolation is blocking discovery. | Enable iOS Local Network access, use the same non-guest LAN, pause the VPN and rescan with the TV awake. |
| The pairing code is rejected | The code expired, belongs to an earlier session or was entered incorrectly. | Close the old dialog, start pairing again and follow the current prompts exactly. |
| Connected, but buttons do nothing | The TV accepted discovery but blocks third-party control, selected a limited route, or is showing a protected screen. | Check the platform's network-control setting, return to Home and test basic navigation before advanced commands. |
| The brand is found but pairing instructions look wrong | That brand uses another operating system, such as Roku TV, Fire TV, Android/Google TV or VIDAA. | Check About/System information and follow the operating-system guide instead of the logo on the bezel. |
| Power off works but wake does not | Deep standby disabled network wake, the TV lost Wi-Fi, or this connection method does not support wake. | If your model offers a network or mobile-device wake setting, enable it. Otherwise turn on the TV with its physical remote and reconnect. |
| The documented setting is missing | Menu structure differs by model year, region or firmware, or the model does not expose local control. | Use the TV's built-in search or its exact model manual. Do not enable a similarly named setting unless the manual says it controls mobile/IP access. |
