Insignia does have a remote app called Insignia Connect. This app is specifically designed for Insignia TVs and allows you to control your TV using your smartphone or tablet. I have personally used this app and found it to be quite convenient and user-friendly.
To get started, you need to make sure that your Insignia TV and your Android or iOS device are connected to the same WiFi network. Once you have that set up, you can download the Insignia Connect app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. The app is free to download and install.
After installing the app, open it and you’ll see a simple and intuitive interface. The main screen displays a virtual remote control, which closely resembles the physical remote that comes with the Insignia TV. You can use this virtual remote to navigate through the TV’s menus, adjust volume, change channels, and control other functions.
One of the great features of the Insignia Connect app is the ability to use your smartphone’s keyboard for text input on the TV. This can be incredibly handy when you need to search for content or enter login information using the TV’s on-screen keyboard. It saves you the hassle of using the TV’s remote control to navigate a cumbersome on-screen keyboard.
Additionally, the app provides quick access to various settings and features of the TV. You can easily switch between different input sources, adjust picture and sound settings, and even access smart TV features if your Insignia TV supports them.
I have found the Insignia Connect app to be very reliable in terms of connectivity and responsiveness. It quickly establishes a connection with the TV and I haven’t experienced any significant lag or delay when using it. The app also remembers the last TV you connected to, so you don’t have to go through the setup process every time you want to use it.
I have had a positive experience with the Insignia Connect app. It provides a convenient way to control your Insignia TV using your smartphone or tablet, and its user-friendly interface makes it easy to navigate and access various TV functions. If you own an Insignia TV, I would definitely recommend giving this app a try.
