Features & Capabilities

LG AV REMOTE is a universal Wi-Fi remote control application designed for LG devices released since 2012. Once your smartphone and LG device share the same router, you can effortlessly turn your phone into a traditional remote control after a simple setup process. The app automatically scans and lists all compatible devices in your home, enabling seamless control.

Compatible products include Blu-ray Disc Players, Home Theater Systems, Network Media Players (Smart TV Upgraders), Sound Bars, and Sound Plates. Note that some devices without Wi-Fi support may not be compatible, and phone performance or weak Wi-Fi signals can affect functionality. LG AV REMOTE requires Android 2.3 or later, providing a convenient and centralized way to control multiple LG entertainment devices over your home network.

User Reviews

Overall, LG AV REMOTE gets mixed reviews. It works for some LG Blu-ray/home theater setups, letting users control playback and navigate discs via Wi-Fi, and can replace a physical remote for compatible devices. However, many users report that it fails to discover or connect to devices, experiences reliability issues, and complains about ads, unclear device support, and an outdated UI.

Pros

Compatible with LG Blu-ray players and home theater systems, with remote control and menu navigation.
Reportedly works well for some users on supported devices.
Can serve as a replacement remote for LG devices when compatible.

Cons

Frequent device discovery and network connection failures; the app can't find TVs/devices on the same Wi-Fi.
Inconsistent reliability; many reviews say the app doesn't work or stops working.
Ads and promotional tricks degrade user experience.
Limited support and unclear list of supported devices; some LG devices (incl. smart TVs) may not be supported.
Outdated interface and lack of device naming/personalization; hard to distinguish multiple devices.
