LG Remote

LG Remote is a smart remote control app that turns your phone into a TV remote—making everyday TV control feel more natural and effortless. With a clean, attractive design and a set of powerful, easy-to-use controls, it’s a convenient replacement for the physical remote. You can get started right away in just a few steps, so you don’t have to worry about misplacing your original remote.

The app also supports a wider control range, unified remote functions, and smooth scene sharing and screen casting—so you can enjoy a better viewing experience.

Key Features of LG Remote

Control your LG smart TV with functions designed to match the behavior of LG’s own smart remotes. Point your phone toward the TV, then use the built-in gyroscope to move the on-screen cursor by sliding your phone.

• Fast one-click connection: Quickly pairs your device with your TV for easy operation.
• Customizable button layout: Go beyond a basic remote by editing the on-screen button arrangement to match your preferences.
• Touchpad mode (for devices without a gyroscope): Still lets you control the TV smoothly when gyroscope support isn’t available.

Top Highlights

Seamless Content Sharing

Mirror the screen of other devices to your TV. It’s one of the easiest ways to share what you want to watch with family—especially when phones or computers feel too small. Watching on a large screen (like a 56-inch TV) makes it much more enjoyable.

High-Quality Viewing Experience

Casting can sometimes reduce picture quality from one device to another, but with this app the display feels closer to a direct mirror. Even on high-resolution TVs, the image may appear sharper and clearer during screen casting.

Multi-Functional Media Casting

Unlike many similar tools that mainly mirror limited apps (often just YouTube), LG Remote lets you quickly cast video from a wide range of platforms to your TV.

User Feedback

• “Been using for a few years now and all is well—better than the plastic remote that came with the TV. I dropped it so many times that it literally fell apart. Try using the TV button for all the functions and you will freak the F out. My only suggestion is to move the exit button—it sits right below the right arrow, and I sometimes hit it by accident, then I have to go back for a few minutes. 99/100.”

• “Very good app and one of the better ones, but I wouldn’t pay £8.99 for a year. It might be worth it if it were a one-time purchase, otherwise it’s all around good, but the ads only show every 10–15 button uses and they last about ten seconds.”

• “It’s okay and easy to use. I’d prefer it were free, because €17 feels high for something that could’ve been free or cheaper. Still, it’s unbelievably quick—set up detected my TV fast, and it was easy to use. Fast, simple, and I’d update it as soon as possible.”

• “Wonderful functions… (see features below).”
