Use the TV Unit Buttons to Change the Channel On Vizio TV

Like all TVs, Vizio TV has a set of physical buttons such as Power, Volume, Channel, and Input/Menu buttons to control the TV. Those physical buttons will be located underneath the Vizio logo or at the side panel of the TV frame. Once you find the physical buttons, check whether the set-top box is connected to it and power on.

Note: If you connect the set-top box for the first time, you must change the Vizio TV input to the respective HDMI by pressing the INPUT button.

How to Change Channels on Vizio TV Without Remote - Physical Buttons

Once the home screen appears, you can press the Channel Up and Channel Down keys to switch channels on your Vizio TV without a remote.

Use the Remote App to Change the Channel on Vizio TV

Other than the physical buttons, you can use the  VIZIO | WatchFree+ as a substitute. This is an official Vizio TV remote app, so you can use it whenever required. You can get this app on your Android from the Play Store and App Store on your iPhone. Once you install the app, you need to pair your TV with the app. For that, your smartphone and Vizio TV should be on the same WiFi network.

After pairing your TV with the app, tap the Remote option to launch the remote interface. Next, bring up the home screen on your Vizio TV by pressing the Home or Menu button. Select the TV source to which the cable/satellite TV box is connected. Then, press the CH+ or CH- buttons to change the channel on your Vizio TV.

Remember that the VIZIO | WatchFree+ app controls your TV using WiFi. You cannot use this app if you don’t have WiFi. Alternatively, you can rely on third-party IR remote apps to control your Vizio TV. These apps work using infrared signals just like your traditional remote. So, your smartphone should have a built-in IR blaster to use the app. A few of the best IR remote apps to control your Vizio TV are as follows.

  • TV Remote Control for Vizio TV
  • Vizio Smart TV Remote
  • Vizio Smart Remote

After installing the IR remote app, open it and choose a remote. Then, change the channel on your Vizio TV by clicking the Channel buttons on the remote interface.

Use Voice Commands to Change Channels on Vizio TV

You can easily change channels using voice commands if you have Google Nest or Amazon Echo connected to your Vizio TV. If you use Google Nest, trigger the voice command by saying, “Hey Google, Change Channel to 600.” For an Alexa-powered speaker, you can say the voice command, “Alexa, change the channel on my Vizio TV.”

FAQ

1. Can I change channels on Vizio TV using voice commands without smart speakers?
