Garbage app

I lost my remote and I use the app as one now, I’m constantly fighting with my phone connecting to my tv. It keeps telling me to turn the tv on even though it is on, apps always slow as hell for me and things never load

Love Vizio and all it comes with!

My last 6-8 TV’s have all been Vizio’s and that’s all I’ll ever buy!, I love the look, extremely high definition and all of the other apps etc that you can use with it or cast from your IPhone to your Vizio and watch what’s on your phone on your large screen Vizio 👍
