The remote app is all you need if you prefer to control your Realme TV from your phone. Even if you have more than one Realme TV, the remote app lets you control all of them effortlessly. Like smart remotes, you can use voice commands in the app to operate your Realme TV hands-free. This guide illustrates the procedure for controlling Realme TV without a remote.
Control Realme Android or Google TV Using the Google TV App
As a first step, connect your Realme TV and smartphone to the same WiFi connection.
1. Take your Android phone and go to the Play Store to install the Google TV app. On your iPhone, you need to go to the App Store to download the app.
2. After installing the app, launch it and sign in using your Google Account.
3. Click on the TV Remote option at the bottom right of the screen. Now, a list of active devices will appear on your smartphone.
4. Select your Realme Google TV, and a pairing code will appear on your TV.
5. Input the code on your smartphone and tap Pair.
6. Now, your Realme TV will be paired with the app, and a remote interface will immediately launch on the app.
7. Control your Realme TV using the D-pad or click on the Menu option and select Swipe Control to control your TV.
Use the IR Remote App to Control Realme TV
Instead of relying on remote apps that work through WiFi, you can install and use IR remote apps to control your TV. The IR remote app controls Realme TV via infrared signals, so there will be no need for a WiFi connection. The only requisite to use those apps is an Android smartphone with a built-in IR blaster.
Then, visit the Play Store on your phone and install the IR remote app that seems compatible with your Realme TV. If you are unsure about which apps to use, take a look at the best IR remote apps to control Realme TV.
| IR Remote Apps | App Download Link |
|---|---|
| Realme TV Remote IR | Get from the Play Store |
| Remote control for Realme TV | Get from the Play Store |
| Realme Smart TV Remote | Get from the Play Store |
After installing any of the above apps, launch it and choose a remote from the list. Then, point the phone towards your TV and tap the Power button on the app interface. If your Realme TV turns off, press the Power button again to turn the TV back on. If your TV doesn’t turn off, select the next remote and repeat the same process.
