Developer Response
Hi there! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. The app requires the Philips TV to already be connected to Wi-Fi, and the TV needs to be turned on before the app can connect. Unfortunately, the app cannot turn on a TV that has never been connected to it before. If you don’t have a working physical remote, you can usually turn on the TV using the physical buttons located on the back or bottom of the TV screen. Once the TV is on and connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your phone, you can try connecting through the app. Most TVs have a small button on the frame you can use to select “OK.” You can also plug in a USB mouse or keyboard and click “Allow” on the screen. After you confirm once on the TV, the app will work normally as your remote. Best regards,Universal Remote • TV Control Support Team
