HiSense TV Remote Control

Control for Hisense televisions

HiSense TV Remote Control is a phone-based remote for Hisense LED and smart televisions. It suits people who want to try controlling a TV from their Android phone rather than use its physical remote. A phone with an infrared (IR) blaster can send commands directly; for supported Android TV control over Wi-Fi, the phone and television need to be on the same network.

Two connection routes

The app’s description distinguishes infrared control from Wi-Fi connectivity. IR control depends on the phone having an IR blaster, a feature not found on every phone. Wi-Fi control is intended for Android TV and requires both devices to use the same network. The listing does not establish that every Hisense model or phone will work, so compatibility may depend on the hardware and TV setup.

What to expect

AYYAN says the app offers the functions of a conventional remote, lets users return to a previously used remote, and includes an option to switch vibration on or off. It also describes casting-related Wi-Fi functionality. These are developer-stated capabilities, not a guarantee that every feature is available with every television. The app is not an official product of Hisense, according to its disclaimer.

Listing record

HiSense TV Remote Control is listed in Tools and has more than 100,000 installs. Its rating is 4.31 out of 5 from 6,226 ratings. Those figures show the app has been used and rated by many people, but they do not confirm compatibility with a particular TV. Check whether your phone has an IR blaster or whether your television supports the described Android TV network connection before relying on it as a replacement remote.
