About Universal TV Remote: SmartCtrl
One remote for every TV in the house.
SmartCtrl finds Roku, Samsung, LG, Fire TV, Android TV / Google TV, Hisense VIDAA and Vizio devices on your Wi-Fi in seconds — no account, no setup — and gives you a full remote for each.
EVERY BUTTON, EVERY BRAND
• Navigation pad, OK, back, home, volume, mute, channel, play/pause
• Number keypad, inputs, settings and colour keys where your TV has them
• Quick launch for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney+ and more
TOUCHPAD
Swipe to move, tap to select. On LG the pad drives the Magic Remote cursor.
KEYBOARD
Type searches with your iPhone keyboard instead of the on-screen letter grid.
YOUR TV'S APPS
Every app installed on the TV, with its real icon. Star your favourites.
PAIR ONCE
Roku needs nothing. Samsung and LG ask once on the TV. Fire TV, Android TV, Hisense and Vizio show a code. After that it just works, every time.
WORKS ON YOUR WI-FI
Everything runs on your local network. No cloud, no account, nothing leaves your home.
PRO
Remove ads and unlock five themes — Liquid Glass, Aurora, Carbon, Studio — plus 3D relief keys.
Supported: Roku and Roku TV (TCL, Hisense, Sharp, Philips), Samsung Tizen (2016+), LG webOS (2014+), Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, Android TV and Google TV (Sony Bravia, TCL, Philips, Chromecast with Google TV, Nvidia Shield), Hisense VIDAA (and the Toshiba and Sharp sets that run it), Vizio SmartCast. Your phone and TV must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS
Pro is available as a one-time Lifetime purchase, or as a Weekly (3-day free trial) or Monthly auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
