Description by Backslash (from Google Play)

This remote control app lets you manage your Vizio SmartCast TV using your phone or from your wrist with the Wear OS app.

★ Network IP control (WiFi / WiFi Direct / LAN)
Network IP control works with Vizio SmartCast TVs manufactured 2016 and later!
- Make sure the TV that you want to pair is turned [On]
- Make sure your phone and TV are connected to the same home network. If your router supports a privacy separator function, make sure it is disabled.

Supported mobile devices: all phones and tablets with WiFi.

★ Infrared (IR) interface
- Your TV and phone/tablet must have infrared interface!
- Point your phone’s IR blaster directly at the TV like with the original infrared remote. Usual working range is 3 - 15ft (line of sight).
- With some phones in power saving mode or with almost empty battery the IR signal is very weak and range is less then 5ft.

Features:
All functions should work with the latest (2015) models. If you have 10 year old TV model which does not have internet connection, then of course some internet related (apps) buttons does not work, but all common functions will still work.

Excellent experience. Basic remote but all buttons work as intended. Used to shape the picture settings. Absolute best part? No fricken ad pop-ups while using remote.

★☆☆☆☆ Izzy Nelson · Mar 18, 2023

No 1. Too many ads EVEN INAPPROPRIATE ONES No 2. Was "paired" with my vizio and after 2 minutes stopped working, WOULD NOT USE. Edit: this is only my experience with the app others might be different.
