Simple TV Remote is a Hisense Roku TV remote app for iPhone that works with Hisense Roku TV sets running Roku TV. It pairs over your home Wi-Fi and sends real commands in a free check, so you know it works on your exact TV before you pay $5.99, once. How do I turn on a Hisense Roku TV without the remote? Press the power button on the TV. Hisense says you can use the power button and side buttons on the TV, though newer models have fewer buttons. Simple TV Remote controls the TV once it's on and can turn it off, but we don't promise turning a Roku TV on from your iPhone. How do I pair a Hisense Roku TV remote? Hold the pairing button for 5 seconds until the status light flashes. It's on the back or under the battery cover. If there's no pairing button, hold Back and Home for 5 seconds instead. Simple remotes without a voice button use infrared and don't need pairing. How do I pair a new remote to a Hisense Roku TV with no working remote? Unplug the TV, wait at least 5 seconds, plug it back in and wait for the Home screen, which puts the TV in pairing mode. Then hold the remote's pairing button, or Back and Home, for 5 seconds until the light flashes. How do I restart a Hisense Roku TV? Press Home, then go to Settings > System > Power > System restart. Without the menu, unplug the TV for at least 10 seconds and plug it back in. A restart doesn't change your settings. How do I factory reset a Hisense Roku TV? Press Home, then go to Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Factory reset > Factory reset everything, and follow the steps. It erases your settings, so the TV has to be set up again, including Wi-Fi. Try a restart first. How do I connect a Hisense Roku TV to Wi-Fi without the remote? You need a remote for that step. Roku says its own app can't find a Roku TV that isn't connected to the internet, for example after a reset, and the same goes for Simple TV Remote. Once the TV is back on Wi-Fi, your iPhone can be the remote. Why does the app say my Roku TV isn't allowing control? Open Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Control by mobile apps and set it to Enabled. Roku TVs from Roku OS 14.1 on ask for this before they accept button presses from a phone app. Can I use the Roku app instead? Yes. Roku's free Roku app turns your phone into a remote for any Roku TV. Simple TV Remote is a simpler option that also covers other TVs you own, with no account, for $5.99 once after a free check. How do I know my Hisense is a Roku TV? The code starts with R6, R7 or R8 (like 65R6G) or ends in R (like 40A4NR), and the box and start-up screen show Roku TV. Can I switch my Roku TV to Google TV? The platform is built in and can't be changed. Which Hisense Roku TV models work with Simple TV Remote?
