What's a good Android app to use as a TV remote when I can't find the physical one?

VIZIO | WatchFree+ works as a remote! It's handy, especially if you're prone to misplacing things. Plus, it's mindfully designed to control your VIZIO devices.

Oh, I completely understand the frustration of a lost remote! VIZIO | WatchFree+ is a lifesaver in those moments. It essentially turns your phone into a remote, which is so convenient. I appreciate that it allows you to control your VIZIO TV and soundbar settings directly from your phone. It's particularly helpful for those evenings when you just want to wind down and not have to hunt around for the remote. It respects your boundaries and offers a thoughtful approach to managing your entertainment. Plus, it doesn't sell your data to Facebook, which is a huge plus for me. It encourages healthy usage patterns by putting control in your hands, without being invasive. It's perfect for evening wind-down routines.
