Are you looking for an alternate way to control the Haier TV? This guide will let you know how. You can use apps like Google TV or The Roku App to operate Haier TV since the manufacturer hasn’t developed an official remote app. The upcoming section explains the steps for setting up and using Haier TV remote apps.
Control Haier Android or Google TV using the Google TV App
First, connect your Haier TV to WiFi, which should be the same one your phone is connected to.
1. Some Android devices have the Google TV app pre-installed. If so, launch the app. Otherwise, download the app from the official app store and open it.
2. Click Allow to grant the storage permissions, including the terms and policies.
3. The app will load the home page. Then, locate and click the Remote or Connect icon.
4. The Google TV app will start scanning for nearby devices.
5. Pick your Haier TV from the list shown. A code will be shown on the Haier TV screen.
6. Type the code on the Google TV app using the built-in keypad.
7. Finally, hit the Pair button. Your Haier Smart TV will now be connected to the app. Choose a swipe control or D-pad using the menu and operate your Haier TV.
Your Haier Android or Google TV can now respond to the remote app button presses.
Control Haier Roku TV using The Roku App
The Roku App also functions using wireless signals. So, you must connect the Haier Roku TV to the same WiFi network as your handheld device.
1. Install The Roku app on your Android or iPhone by going to the built-in app store.
2. Launch the app and accept the app policies.
3. Log in to the app using the Roku credentials. Alternatively, you can select Continue as Guest and sign in later.
4. The Roku App will now load the home page. Click the Devices option at the bottom. The app will scan for nearby devices.
5. Choose your Haier Roku TV. The Roku app will connect with the Haier TV.
6. Click the Remote icon, and the app will load the remote interface.
Using the remote icons in the app, you can easily control your Haier Roku TV without a remote.
Use IR Remote Apps to Control Old Haier TV
If you own a Haier non-smart TV, it won’t have WiFi. In such circumstances, you can use the IR remote apps. They can function with the help of IR signals, and all you need is an Android smartphone with an IR blaster. If so, install the IR remote app on your Android mobile and run it.
Choose a suitable remote model in the app. Once selected, point the smartphone towards the Haier TV and press the Power button. If your TV detects IR signals from the app, it will turn the Haier TV off. Again, press the same Power key to turn on the Haier TV. You can control the TV functions using the app icons.
Refer to the list below if you are confused about picking the right IR Remote app for your Haier TV.
If you prefer not to use remote apps, you can consider using a universal remote. Have a look at the remote codes for Haier TV and program a universal remote with the TV. Then, use the remote buttons on a universal remote to operate the Haier TV.
