Does Vizio TV have Internet browser?

Answered by Robert Dupre

Vizio TVs do not have a built-in web browser. This means you cannot directly access the internet or browse websites on your Vizio Smart TV. However, there are alternative ways to use a web browser on your TV.

One option is to use a streaming device such as the Amazon Fire TV Stick. The Fire TV Stick plugs into your TV’s HDMI port and allows you to access various streaming apps, including web browsers like Silk Browser or Firefox. Simply install the browser app from the Amazon Appstore and you’ll be able to browse the internet on your Vizio TV.

Another option is to mirror your phone or computer screen to your Vizio TV. Many smartphones, tablets, and computers have built-in screen mirroring capabilities that allow you to wirelessly display the contents of your device on your TV. By mirroring your screen, you can open a web browser on your device and have it displayed on your TV. This way, you can browse the internet on your Vizio TV using the web browser on your phone or computer.

To mirror your screen, you’ll need to make sure your Vizio TV and your device are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Then, on your device, go to the settings and look for the screen mirroring or casting option. Select your Vizio TV from the list of available devices, and your device’s screen should appear on your TV.

While these methods provide a workaround for accessing the internet on your Vizio TV, it’s important to note that the browsing experience may not be as smooth or seamless as on a dedicated web browser device. The performance and compatibility of the browser apps may vary, and you may encounter limitations or difficulties when accessing certain websites or using certain web features.
