Features & Capabilities

The Remote Control for Vizio TV Chrome extension allows users to turn their smartphones or tablets into a convenient remote for their Vizio TVs using the device's built-in infrared (IR) blaster. Compatible with major devices such as HTC One M7/M8, LG G3 Stylus, Lenovo Lifetab, Alcatel I221, and various Samsung Galaxy models (S4, S5, Note, Tab, Mega), this app eliminates the need for extra hardware.

Users should point their device's IR blaster directly at the TV, maintaining a working range between 3 to 10 feet. Special attention is noted for Tab3 and Tab4 tablets regarding the correct orientation to ensure proper IR transmitter positioning. This app is independently developed and not affiliated with or endorsed by Vizio Inc. It is provided "as is" without warranties, highlighting user discretion for usage.

Reviewers generally report that the app can function as a basic Vizio TV remote and is easy to set up, often connecting on the first try and working well for many models.
