My uncle is blind and I am trying to make things easier for him. I will try this setup today. Thank you sooooo much.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Brilliant and spot on!, thank you very much for this!. I had a system upgrade done by the new cable company yesterday, consequently I discovered that I could no longer control the lounge tv with Alexa as before, now, thanks to you I can and all is right as rain.

Nice, detailed step by step procedure for using echo dot to do things on your smart tv. Thanks, i tried it in 2024 and only a few options were new as the samsung smart things app & the TV apps are now updated but the procedure is still the same as you showed. Cheers 🍻

I came back to say 🗣THANK YOU!!!

Just got a 55 inch Qled Q60T for the bedroom a few days ago. Followed your instructions and it worked. Thanks.

This video is so underrated!

I watched before so many videos and tried to connect alexa with my tv after seeing ur video it worked!!! 🥳

This helped me so much, thank you. Exactly what I was looking for.

Great video. It helped me to set it up. I can turn on and off tv. Can move volume up and down but cannot plat youtube or netflix. It says you cannot turn on the video devices, to do that you need to connect it first. To enable it go to alexa settings and tv and videos and then connect. But I think l have already connected SmartThings. My tv model no is 65” Q60T QLED 4K HDR(2020) QE65Q60TAUXXU. Any advise please?

Underrated channel

Awesome, all I had to do was change the name to living room tv and it now turns on and off with my Alexa. Thank you

Anyone else notice the time in the phone starting at 1:25 (1111) also this was helpful tjank you i subbed. 👌

I am not able to switch on my tv using alexa only off is working and basic things like volume up/down is working.Whats the issue while switching on?

It's crazy that there are tvs without bluetooth, mine is one of them. Great video though!

Is this the same for models with built in alexa? But you can't ask alexa questions like weather. Not the whole experience?

I have no option of smart things on alexa app

Works with wired connection on my Samsung Au8000 55". Turns it on & off. Thanks!

I'm able to turn off tv but Can't Turn it ON. can you please help me out

It works only to turn it off, it does not turn it back on, it says the command is not available for my TV, any advise to resolve it? Thanks in advance, you are awesome!

My alexa heard u talking to urs and was searching for ur tv I had to say alexa stop

it first only worked to turn it off, you have to go to the settings in your TV and enable turning it on with external devices

Thanks for the video. Can a Samsung TV with build in alexa work with amazon echo dot? I mean it has build in alexa and you can use it with mic on remote control but would like to use it with echo dot.

Great video - big help!! Thank you so much 👍

Thank you so much. I understand that now. So any alexa device should work for this? For example the Echo show?

Good help for me as a newer of Alexa app..I didn't got it when I wanted to control my Samsung tv, she doesn't want to..although fire tv downstairs she controls it perfectly ..it was a DILEMA FOR ME!

Can you turn the tv on from your phone if you’re not home and it will actually come on?

A great help for me it works 👌❤️

Is there a way to lauch apps like youtube on the smart tv through echo dot?

Thanks for the awesome video. I am able to turn off tv using Alexa on echo but when I ask it turn on it says not supported. Any clue why this is happening?

So is 2023 and still can't open apps. Thanks for this. I'm not sure if it was the WiFi, but at least the TV is not going offline after turning it off

commands like "put despacto on youtube", "put stranger things on netflix", or specific things work on a tu8300 curve?

Worked!!! Thanks man!

Like and subsribe to you my sir!! This is the best video on this topic, struggled so much to make my alexa turn on my TV, because it was only able to turn the TV off. Thanks!!🎉

Can you control multiple tvs with this

I wanna connect my 49 inch tcl roku tv smart TV to alexa can it b done and can alexa interface with KZfaq app which is already on the tv

Hopefully you are looking at comments, but I cant turn the TV on, I am connected wirelessy

Thanks for this video! I'm using Samsung AUE60A (not pro version). As shown in the video, I did everything. But I'm able to do basic functions like turn on/turn off, volum adjust... But when I ask to open KZfaq in tv, it says "to control a video devic using voice, you need to connect it first". But iv already linked Smart things to Alexa app. Could you please suggest a work around for this problem?

mi Samsung TU8000 only turns off. it wont turn on. can you help?

*Thanks for this video mate. and cool lighting*

Do you have any idea on how to avoid alexa registering doubles ?

Great video. Thank you for this.

How do i remove the Alexa bar at the bottom of the screen? I have a new 32" The Frame

Do you need another Alexa device for this to work??? I can’t get my new TV set up on it’s own but I can switch it on/off by voice when it’s paired with my Alexa echo device

Bixby actually works better than Alexa For this TV There's a bunch of commands Alexa won't even do on this TV makes me so mad

Do you need the SmartThings hub to do thid

Is there anyway to do this with an Emerson tv (not smart tv) but am using a firestick?🤔

I can't get her to do anything other turn on and off my TV. Help! How do you setup more commands?

Thank you !

*legends say he replies to every comment*

I have a Samsung q82a (2021), I’ve done this and my tv only turns off, but doesn’t turn on, I can open Netflix, but it doesn’t select a movie title if I ask it to. Does this mean it’s and issue with the tv or does this mean im doing something wrong? Thanks

Are you speaking into an echo device or into the TV for the Alexa commands?

I dont have samsung in tv list :( any advice

Hey, was not able to discover my Samagung Smart Monitor M7 on the Alexa app. Can anyone help me pls?

Hello, This is a great informative video. I have a doubt If I use this technique. can I open apps like youtube or amazon prime as well with just a command? and even search for content using Alexa echo's mic as input?

So I’m signed In with my tv and already did the whole set up and I didn’t connect it to my phone at the time and I have no idea how to connect it now so I can use the Alexa as well

My Alexa app says device is unresponsive. What do I do?

My Alexa says cannot use this command on Samsung TV when I say to on tv

Hi, if i connect my laptop to the monitor/tv, will alexa still work anytime as an overlay to that?

It really worked...thanku so much❤️

Excellent Video, Very helpful! I have a new 2021 Q70A. Success in basic control- Power on/off, Volume, etc. Does anyone have success with opening apps such as netflix? I'm not having any luck there.

Thank you

I was absolutely begging and wishing for this to happen for my TV but now its been done I can't actually remember which functions I was so desperate for that I couldn't do before?...

Any idea if this is meant to work on the M7 Monitor? It has Alexa built-in but for some reason when linked it can only be used to turn off and change volume, It can't be used to turn on or change HDMI input. Please help.

Can we switch to different channels now using this technique? Samsung smart tv 2018 model... 😁

I ran into a problem, when trying to connect it just keeps saying to check to make sure both devices are on the same network

Thanks !

Why I can only control on and off but not any other command?

How to I get Alexa to play a show on my tv I asked alexa to play a show it goes to it but it doesn’t not play I’ve told Alexa to hit play and nothing happens I’m frustrated specially cause I can’t find my remote

I did exactly the same as you suggested. The TV is turning off through Alexa but not Turning on. It says check network. Can you please help?

Brand new Samsung TV and you would think it would be easier to set up!

If I use the KZfaq app on the tv can I use my echo as a microphone to search ?

Every time my TV turns off and turns back on it disconnects from the Smart Things app. It says "offline" even though the TV is on and connected to wifi, so I have to reconnect it every time if I wanna use Alexa with it. Any tips?

I have samsung ue55ru7100, i have to first turn on the TV with the rc before asking alexa to mute, vol+/-, turn off TV but that's all it will do. Saying "Alexa, turn on TV", "start netflix" or whatever doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong, or are those functions just not available in my case?
