Remotes are not sold on Samsung.com; they are instead available on our parts website, samsungparts.com. There are many models of remotes (all with slight variations), but you can find the exact remote your TV/projector came with by searching for your model number and then scrolling through the list until you see the remote.
Remotes can vary in price for different models; however, our IR remotes work with all of our TVs and projectors. In other words, you can pick any IR remote you like and it will work, even if your model isn't listed as compatible with that remote.
Because of this, we recommend BN59-01301A as a replacement remote. This is one of the newer and cheaper models (around 15 dollars on samsungparts.com) and offers basic functionality, if that's all you need.
Most universal remotes will work with your Samsung TV or projector as well, such as those found on Amazon or possibly even the remote that was included with your cable or satellite box. If you buy a universal remote, make sure the remote says it is compatible with Samsung before you buy it.
If you've lost your remote or haven't set this up yet, your Samsung TV or projector will ask permission for your Galaxy phone to connect. You can then use the TV Controller button (sometimes called a jog controller) on the back of your TV to grant the permission. Please see your user manual for specific instructions if you're unsure.
The Samsung SmartThings app lets you control your TV or projector no matter where you are. Just connect your phone, navigate to SmartThings, and then select your device from the list of available devices. From there, you can use the remote control features.
There are also many third-party remote control apps available from the Google Play and iTunes stores. Peel and SURE are are two popular options, and they're both available for Android and iOS.
Do you have an older Samsung TV at home? Did you know that you can use the remote from ANY Samsung TV to perform at least a few functions. Even if the remote you are missing is a Smart Remote, an older IR remote from a Samsung TV should be able perform most of the following functions:
Universal remotes are generally used to control multiple devices and will work on most major TVs and home electronics. You can buy a universal remote to control your Samsung TV or projector, though you may already own one if you have a cable or satellite set top box, Roku player, Fire TV, or a game console remote.
The universal remote needs to be programmed to control your Samsung device with a code. Most of the time these codes are preprogrammed, but if the remote is not working, you'll need to obtain additional codes for Samsung from the remote's manufacturer.
Even if you don't currently have a remote, you can turn on the TV, adjust the volume, change the channel, and more right on the TV itself. TVs from 2019 and later use a single button that, when pressed, displays on the TV screen and cycles through the available functions each time you press it. To use a function, press and hold the button.
Some older models will have either several buttons on the right side of the TV or a joystick-like button on the lower right back of the TV. Refer to your TV's user manual to check the location and type of controls.
Not ready to throw the old one out just yet? Think it still has some life left in it? If you still have your remote but it's not working, see our troubleshooting guide for steps to get it working again.

Samsung TV Plus offers a wide range of programming and just about anyone should be able to find something interesting. If you want to remove the channels that you don't watch, or you decide you don't want any of these channels at this time, you can remove all of the TV Plus channels.
Note: If you remove all of the channels, the TV Plus app will not play automatically until new channels are added. New channels are added to TV Plus occasionally, so if you don't want to see them, you'll have to repeat this process.
Select channels to mark them with a check, and then select Delete to remove the channels from your TV Plus Channel list. Restoring deleted channels is just as easy. While on the Edit Channels page, select the channel you want restored, then select Restore. If you select the box next to All Channels, all channels are selected at once.
Samsung TV Plus is an integrated feature of your device and it can't be fully removed. However, if you remove all of the channels, Samsung TV Plus will not appear anymore unless a new channel is added. Periodically, new channels are added and you'll need to remove them if you don't want Samsung TV Plus. You can also remove the Samsung TV Plus app from your device's Home screen. Simply highlight it, press Down, and then select Remove > Remove.
We recently removed the ability to purchase and rent content in Samsung TV Plus, so while your movies and shows aren't listed in TV Plus, they are all still available in the Fandango Now app. You can even link your Fandango account with Movies Anywhere, and access your movies through other great apps like Google Play Movies and VUDU.

Just as with your phone, the apps on your Samsung Smart TV or projector will also need an update from time to time to perform at their utmost capability. Set your apps to automatically update so you don't even have to think about it.
If you'd prefer to update your apps by yourself, you can set Auto Update to off. Keeping your apps up-to-date is important to ensure you're getting the most out of them. Similarly, updating your apps is also a good way to ensure you don't run into any software issues.
While your TV can be an endless source of entertainment and leisure for you, that doesn't mean everyone in the house should bear witness to what you're checking out. For example, if you have kids there may be some movies, shows, or apps that might be inappropriate for them to see. Thankfully, your Samsung Smart TV or projector gives you control with its locking feature.
To access any locked apps, you will first have to create a PIN. To do so, simply enter your Settings, go to General, and then System Manager. From there, your device's default PIN of 0000 can be changed to whatever four digits you choose once you select Change PIN.
