Store listing

Full description
With this app "Remote Control for Sony TV" you can use your smartphone to control your Sony TV. You can choose between network (WiFi / WiFi Direct / LAN) IP control or infrared (IR) control. ★ Infrared (IR) control Works on phones and tablets with built-in IR blaster (infrared port) such as Samsung Galaxy S series until S6, HTC ONE, LG G3/G4/G5, Xiaomi Mi / Redmi / Note, Huawei Mate / Honor and many more. No setup required. No WiFi required. It's ready to use (no need for pairing with the TV). - Tested on Samsung Galaxy series (S4 / S5 / S6 and Note phones and tablets excluding Galaxy S7 & S8 which do not have IR hardware) running on original Android 4.4+ firmware (not CM/LineageOS). - Also works on some older Samsung devices running on Android 4.1 - 4.2.2 - Please note that you must point your phone’s IR blaster directly at the TV. Usual working range is 4-10ft (1-3 meters, max ~5 meters). - With some phones in power saving mode or with almost empty battery the IR blaster might not work or range is less then 5ft (2 meters). ★ Network IP control (WiFi / WiFi Direct / LAN). - Make sure the Sony TV that you want to use is turned [On]. - Make sure your mobile device and TV are connected to the same local/home network. - When registering/pairing a Bravia TV, make sure that "Remote Device" / "Renderer" in the settings of TV is set to [On]. - If you have refused the registering/pairing confirmation message on your TV, then you can change your selection later in TV's settings (usually it's located at HOME / Settings -> Network -> Home Network Setup -> Remote Device -> Remote Device List). - If the TV was not found, then it is also possible to enter the TV's IP address manually. To find out you TV IP address go to TV [ Settings ] / [ Network ].
