Check Settings > Network & Internet and turn on WoW (Wi-Fi) or WoL (Ethernet). 2. Wake only works from standby. If the TV was switched off at the wall or unplugged, turn it on with its own remote. The pairing code does not appear 1. Make sure the iPhone and TV are on the same Wi-Fi network, not a guest network. 2. Check for a system update under Settings > Device Preferences > About, restart the TV and try again. The TV doesn't appear in the app 1. Make sure your iPhone and TV are on the same Wi-Fi network, not a guest network. 2. Allow Local Network access for Simple TV Remote in iPhone Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network. 3. Restart the TV: unplug it, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in. 4. Check that the TV is a Google TV or Android TV. TVs with only Chromecast built-in can't be controlled this way. No pairing code shows on the TV 1. Turn the TV on and leave it on the home screen; the code only shows while the screen is on. 2. On the TV, update Android TV Remote Service: open Google Play on the TV, search for "Android TV Remote Service" and choose Update. 3. If it still fails, go to Settings > Apps > Show system apps > Android TV Remote Service and choose Force stop, then Clear storage. Then pair again. The app asks to pair again every time 1. Clear the storage of Android TV Remote Service on the TV (Settings > Apps > Show system apps > Android TV Remote Service > Clear storage), restart the TV and pair once more. 2. Give the TV a fixed address in your router so it doesn't change after a power cut. The TV won't turn on from the app 1. Wake works only from standby. A TV that was unplugged or switched off at the wall can't be woken over Wi-Fi. 2. Turn on your TV maker's network standby setting. See your TV's page for the exact menu path. 3. On Android TV 14 sets, a low-power energy mode may turn the network off in standby. Choose a mode that keeps the network on. 4. If the TV uses Ethernet, try Wi-Fi, or the other way round. Some TVs only wake on one of them. Volume doesn't change on a Chromecast, Google TV Streamer or SHIELD 1. Turn on HDMI-CEC on your TV and on any soundbar or receiver in between. 2. On the streamer, set Settings > Remotes & Accessories > Set up remote buttons > Volume control to "Auto (CEC)". ## Questions Is there a JVC Android TV remote app for iPhone? Yes.
