Has your Prism TV remote fallen down unexpectedly and is not working? Worry not! You can still operate your Prism TV using the remote app on your Android or iPhone. For that, ensure your Prism TV and your Android or iPhone are connected to the same WiFi network. If there is no WiFi, install the IR-based remote app on your Android device and use it to control the Prism TV. This article explains two ways to control Prism TV without a remote.
Control Prism Android/Google TV Using Google TV App
Since Prism TVs are powered by Google and Android operating platforms, you can control them using the Google TV application. As said earlier, you should connect your smartphone and Prism TV to the same WiFi network.
1. Open the default appstore on your smartphone and install the Google TV application.
2. Launch the app and reach the app’s home screen.
3. On the home screen, click the Remote icon and accept the required permission if prompted.
4. From the list, select your Prism Google or Android TV.
5. Note the code shown on your Prism TV screen and enter it on the Google TV app.
6. Hit the Pair button, and the app will load the remote interface.
7. With the available icons, you can control your Prism Google or Android TV hassle-free.
Use IR Remote Apps to Control the Prism TV
If you haven’t set up a WiFi network on Prism TV, no worries; here’s an alternate way. If your Android device has an IR blaster, you can install the IR remote app on it. Then, run the remote app on your Android phone and press the Power button on the remote interface. If your TV turns off, the pairing will be successful, and you can start controlling the Prism TV.
The list below shows the IR remote apps that are compatible with operating the Prism TV.
