Philips TV remote not working or not found
A Philips that cannot be found is often on a system Zorvo does not support yet, or on a different network.
Zorvo is designed for this brand's models that run Google TV, Android TV or Roku TV. Testing on real TVs is still in progress, and other systems are not supported yet.

Checks for every TV
- Phone and TV on the same Wi-Fi network. Guest networks and some mesh or extender setups separate devices.
- Phone VPN or private DNS turned off while pairing.
- Phone has not switched to mobile data. Some Wi-Fi networks without internet make Android leave them: choose Stay connected when asked.
- Local network or nearby devices permission is allowed for Zorvo in Android settings.
- As a last step, add the TV by its IP address in Zorvo (the IP is usually in the TV's network settings).
