SamRemote is a virtual remote control that lets you control your Smart TV.

Features & Capabilities

SamRemote is a free virtual remote control that lets you operate your Samsung Smart TV from your phone. It works over your local Wi‑Fi network, so you don’t need line‑of‑sight or IR hardware. To connect, make sure your phone and TV are on the same Wi‑Fi network and accept the connection prompt on the TV. If you declined the TV confirmation message, restore it via Menu → Network → AllShare Settings.

SamRemote mirrors a physical remote’s layout and provides full remote functionality for convenient navigation, playback control, and menu access. Compatible TV models include Series C (2010), Series D (2011), E (2012), F (2013), and K/L/M/N (2016–2018). DISCLAIMER: SamRemote is not an official Samsung product and is not affiliated with Samsung Electronics.

User Reviews

Reviews largely see the app as a functional remote that works and is easy to use, with positive sentiment. However, major drawbacks include intrusive ads and a recurring paid subscription with refunds hard to obtain, plus compatibility gaps with certain TVs (notably some Samsung LCDs). Some users also dislike being asked to rate the app every time they open it. Overall, it's a decent remote when it works, but the business model and device support are significant downsides.

Pros

Functional and reliable remote that works like the original
Easy to use and navigate
Works as a substitute when the original remote is lost
Generally positive sentiment and praise

Cons

Excessive ads and a recurring paid subscription with refunds hard to obtain
Limited TV compatibility / not working with some devices (e.g., certain Samsung/LCD models)
Intrusive prompts to rate the app every time you open it
