Vizio TV remote not working or not found
If Zorvo cannot find your Vizio, the most likely reason is plain: Vizio SmartCast is not supported yet. Here is how to be sure and what to do next.
Zorvo cannot control these TVs yet. Support is planned.
Likely causes, most common first
Vizio SmartCast is not supported yet
The compatibility check shows a Vizio TV as not supported, with the reason. This is not something a setting on the TV can fix.
How to fix it
- Open the compatibility check in Zorvo.
- Use Vizio's official mobile app for now.
- Tell us you want Vizio: see the About page for contact details.
Your Vizio remote is the one not working
If the physical remote is the problem, replace the batteries, then unplug the TV for a minute and try again. Replacement remotes are inexpensive.
The TV is on a different network
A phone app of any kind needs the same Wi-Fi as the TV.
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).
