Can I use my Samsung device as a remote control?

Yes, many Samsung devices can be used as remote controls, particularly if they have built-in infrared emitters or are compatible with smart home technologies. For devices that do have infrared capabilities, Samsung provides an app called the SmartThings app, which allows users to control compatible smart devices and appliances. If a user does not have an infrared emitter, Samsung devices can still act as remote controls for various smart home devices through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connections. The SmartThings app also supports a wide array of smart devices, such as smart TVs, smart speakers, and home automation systems. To set up the SmartThings app, users need to install it from the Google Play Store or the Galaxy Store and then follow the on-screen instructions to add and control their devices. Additionally, certain Samsung models may offer dedicated remote control features, such as the ability to control the television directly through the device. For the most accurate information regarding specific models and compatible features, it is recommended to refer to the user manual or the official Samsung website.
