How to control TCL TV from your phone

TCL makes TVs on different systems. Which steps you need depends on the system, not on the TCL logo.

Depends on the TV system

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.

Before you start

  • Turn the TV on. A TV in standby often cannot be found.
  • Connect your phone and the TV to the same Wi-Fi network (not a guest network, not a VPN).
  • Install Zorvo from Google Play and allow the nearby devices or local network permission when it asks.

Step 1: turn on phone control on the TV

  1. Find the system: open Settings > System > About (or similar). Google TV and Android TV models mention Google or Android. Roku TV models mention Roku.Menu names may differ by TV model and software version.
  2. TCL with Google TV or Android TV: follow the Google TV pairing steps. Nothing to switch on, you type a code.
  3. TCL with Roku TV: follow the Roku steps. Set Control by mobile apps to Default or Permissive.

Step 2: pair Zorvo with the TV

  1. Open Zorvo and pick your TCL from the list of TVs it found.
  2. Google TV or Android TV model: type the code shown on the TV.
  3. Roku TV model: no code, it connects directly.
  4. Tap Volume up to test.
