## Description

Remote for Vizio is a browser-based remote control designed for Vizio SmartCast TVs. Connect your iPhone and TV on the same Wi‑Fi network, pair, and use a full remote with a large touchpad for navigation and a built‑in keyboard for quick input.

Not compatible with Vizio SmartCast TVs released before 2016 (and legacy Vizio Internet Apps Smart TVs). The app includes an optional auto-renewable Premium subscription for unlimited access to the Interaction tab without ads. Subscriptions auto-renew and can be managed in Account Settings; Terms of Use and Privacy Policy apply.

## Review summary

User reviews largely report the app failing to detect Vizio TVs, frequent connectivity problems, and PIN pairing failures. Compatibility varies by model (older vs. newer Vizios). While some users note a free three-day trial and occasional connection, the overall experience is marred by detection issues, instability, and PIN errors, with limited reliable utility for many devices.

### Pros

- Can connect to the TV (remote) in some cases.
- Free 3-day trial available.

### Cons

- TV not detected or cannot locate TV (appears across multiple reviews).
- Frequent disconnections or unstable connection; TV goes black or requires reloading.
- PIN code pairing/verification failures (PIN incorrect multiple times).
- Compatibility issues with Vizio models (older and newer/brand-new TVs sometimes not supported).
