Sharp sets running Roku TV, Google TV or Android TV
Sharp TV remote app for iPhone & Android
Sharp does not build its own TV platform — its sets run Roku TV, Google TV or Android TV, and EveryMote speaks all of them natively. Sharp sells Roku TVs in the US and Android or Google TV sets elsewhere. The app detects which one your TV runs while it scans, so you do not have to.
Free to use · Every remote feature included · No account
Setting it up
EveryMote is a universal TV remote control app for iPhone and Android, so the same app that controls your Sharp also controls every other smart TV in the house.
- 1
Put the phone and TV on the same Wi-Fi network — not a guest network.
- 2
Open EveryMote and let it scan. Your Sharp appears by name.
- 3
Tap it, then complete whatever step your platform asks for: a code on Android, Google TV and VIDAA sets, an authorisation prompt on Fire TV, and nothing at all on Roku models.
- 4
The full remote opens: D-pad, volume, channels, playback, number pad and keyboard.
Because these sets run someone else's platform, the platform setup page covers the same steps in more detail, including its brand-specific settings.
Worth knowing
Roku-based Sharps need no pairing code at all; the Android ones show a code on screen.

Sharp questions
- How do I connect my phone to my Sharp TV?
- Put the phone and the TV on the same Wi-Fi network, open EveryMote and let it scan — your Sharp appears by name within a few seconds. Tap it and complete the one step its platform asks for: a code on screen for Android and Google TV sets, an authorisation prompt on Fire TV, and nothing at all on Roku models. No cables, no account, no IP address to type in.
- How do I use my phone as a remote for a Sharp TV?
- Install EveryMote, connect once as above, and the full remote opens — D-pad, OK, back, home, volume, channels, playback, a number pad and a keyboard for typing into search boxes. It stays paired, so afterwards it is just open and use.
- Which platform does my Sharp TV run?
- Sharp sells Roku TVs in the US and Android or Google TV sets elsewhere. You do not need to check before using the app — EveryMote identifies it during the scan and connects the right way.
- Is the Sharp remote app free?
- Yes. Every remote feature works without paying — the free version is supported by ads, and Premium only removes them. Nothing about the remote itself is behind the paywall.
- My Sharp TV is not found.
- Almost always the network: the phone must be on the same Wi-Fi as the TV, not cellular data and not a guest or IoT network, which many routers isolate. Make sure the TV is fully on rather than in standby, then rescan.
