Connect your Samsung TV
- Turn on the Samsung TV and connect your phone to the same Wi-Fi.
- Open Remutto. It finds the TV on your network by itself; tap it.
- The TV asks whether to allow the phone. Allow it on the TV. You only do this once; Remutto reconnects automatically after that.
- Blocked by mistake? On the TV open Settings → General → External Device Manager → Device Connect Manager → Device List, allow Remutto (or delete it) and connect again.
- To switch the TV on from your phone later, turn on Settings → General → Network → Expert Settings → Power On with Mobile.

FAQ
Questions about Samsung
Is there a Samsung TV remote app without an account?
Yes. Remutto needs no account and no Samsung sign-in. Put your phone on the same Wi-Fi as the TV, allow it once on the TV, and you can start the free try.
Lost the Samsung remote: can I turn the TV on with my phone?
Only when the TV allows it. With Power On with Mobile turned on (Settings → General → Network → Expert Settings), many Samsung TVs from about 2016 can be woken over the network. Older Samsung TVs only wake when they are connected by network cable and Wake on LAN is on. If the TV is fully off and cannot be woken, press the control button on the TV itself (often under the middle of the screen); after that Remutto can control it.
Does it work with older Samsung TVs?
Remutto works with Samsung smart TVs on Tizen (2015 and later) on the same Wi-Fi. Some older Samsung smart TVs use an older network remote; Remutto tries it, but not every model answers. Samsung TVs that only have infrared and no network are not supported, because a phone app cannot send infrared.
Remutto finds my Samsung TV but the buttons do nothing. What now?
The TV probably blocked the phone. On the TV open Settings → General → External Device Manager → Device Connect Manager → Device List, set Remutto to allow (or delete it), then connect again and allow it on the TV.
Is the Samsung remote free?
Partly. After your first connection the whole remote is free for 3 minutes. After that you get 5 free basic presses a day (power, volume, mute, arrows, OK, Back, Home). Remutto Pro unlocks everything without a daily limit, with one payment and no subscription.
Does Remutto send my commands over the internet?
No. Commands go straight from your phone to the TV over your local network. There is no account and no cloud.
Honest limits
What Remutto cannot do
Remutto controls TVs over your home network. It cannot send infrared, so TVs without a network connection are not supported. Features depend on the TV model and its software. Remutto is not affiliated with Samsung Electronics.
Private by design
Commands go straight from your phone to the TV over your local network. No account, no cloud, no Bumblly server in between.
