The remote app can be a perfect alternative for your ProScan TV remote when it does not work properly. Depending on the ProScan TV’s operating system, the remote app to control the TV will vary. All you need is a WiFi connection and a smartphone with a built-in IR blaster to use the app. In this article, we have mentioned ProScan TV-compatible remote apps and provided the steps to install and use them.
Control the ProScan Roku TV Using the Roku App
The Roku App is available for Android (Play Store) and iPhone (App Store). You can use this app to operate ProScan TVs powered by the Roku OS. Start by connecting your ProScan Roku TV and smartphone to the same WiFi network.

5. Now, the Roku app will search for the devices that are connected to your local network.
6. All the devices that are connected to a local network will be listed on the app screen. If your ProScan Roku TV name does not appear on the list, then you might have connected it to a different network. Check your TV’s network connection and change to a local network, the same as your phone.
7. Select your ProScan Roku TV from the list, and within seconds, it will be paired with the Roku app.
8. Now, you can see the status as Connected on the ProScan TV tab in the Roku app. Tap the Remote option to get a virtual remote interface that looks exactly like your Roku remote.

Use the Infrared Remote App to Control ProScan TV
If you use a ProScan non-smart TV, you cannot use the above-mentioned apps as they work primarily using a WiFi connection. Hence, you can use the IR remote app as an alternative. It uses infrared signals to control the ProScan TV, so there is no need for pairing. A few of the best IR remote apps that are capable of controlling the ProScan TV are as follows.
