Frequently asked questions

TVRem works with Philips Smart TVs running Android TV, Google TV, or Roku — which covers the majority of Philips Smart TV models available today. Not sure which platform your Philips runs? A card-based layout with a Google logo means Google TV, an app grid means Roku, and an app drawer with a settings cog usually means Android TV. All three are fully supported.
Yes. TVRem is completely free – no subscription, no ads, no feature locks. Download it once and use it as your Philips TV control app for as long as you like.
Make sure your iPhone and Philips TV are on the same Wi-Fi network. Open TVRem, find your Philips TV in the device list, and tap to connect. Depending on your TV's platform, you may be asked to confirm the connection on screen. After that first pairing, TVRem connects automatically every time.
Yes. TVRem works as a Philips Roku TV remote app for all Philips TVs with Roku built in. The same app handles Philips Android TV and Google TV models too – no need for separate apps.
First, confirm both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network. For Android TV or Google TV models, check that network control is enabled in your TV settings. For Philips Roku TV models, go to Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Control by mobile apps and make sure it's set to Enabled. Still having trouble? Visit our Help Page for step-by-step guidance on pairing your phone with your smart TV.
