FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Specific answers for Sony TV users.

Can I control a Sony Bravia Google TV from my iPhone over Wi-Fi?

Yes. Sony Bravia TVs with Google TV (2021–2024 XR-A95L, XR-X95L, XR-X90L, XR-X85L, and X, K-Series) and Android TV (2019–2020 X-Series) expose remote control via Bravia IP Control over your home LAN. Enable it at Settings → Device Preferences → IP Control, set Authentication to Normal, and ensure Pre-Shared Key is noted. The app discovers your Bravia TV automatically and establishes a connection without Bluetooth or an IR blaster.

My Sony Bravia is off and the RMF-TX remote is lost — how do I power it on?

Sony Bravia TVs have a physical button (or joystick) on the chassis. On XR OLED and MASTER Series models the button is on the rear center spine; on X-Series and K-Series (2022+), it is on the rear lower-right panel. Press once to power on. After Google TV loads (about 30 seconds), open the app on your iPhone — it will discover the Bravia on your network and connect immediately.

Does this work with Sony Bravia XR TVs that use Google TV?

Yes. The Bravia IP Control protocol is supported across Google TV (2021+) and Android TV (2019–2020) Sony models. This includes the A95L QD-OLED, A80L OLED, X95L mini-LED, X90L, X85L, and the full K-Series (KD-43X75K through KD-85X95K). Ensure IP Control is enabled and your TV is on the same Wi-Fi network as your iPhone. The app delivers Google TV navigation, Home screen access, streaming app launcher, and HDMI ARC control.
