If you’ve lost your Sony TV remote or it’s no longer functioning, you can still operate your TV using onboard controls and smartphone apps. Many Sony TVs, including Bravia and Google TV models, offer built-in buttons and app-based remote options that make it easy to control basic functions like power, volume, input selection, and more. This guide walks you through all the methods available to use your Sony TV without a remote.

First, locate the physical power button on your TV. Depending on the model, this may be on the underside, the back, or the side panel. Some Sony TVs, such as the XH95, XH90, and XH80 models, have only one multifunction button. If your TV has volume (+/-) and input/source buttons, you can use those for limited control like adjusting volume or changing channels.

Here’s how the single-button control system works: When the TV is off, a single press will turn it on. Once the TV is on, a single press brings up the on-screen user interface (UI). To navigate between items in the menu, single-press the button again. To select a highlighted item, press and hold the button. To turn the TV off, simply press and hold the button until the screen shuts down. While this isn’t as convenient as a remote, it allows for essential operation when needed.

For more advanced control, download the Sony | TV SideView or Google TV app on your smartphone. These apps allow you to use your phone as a remote control over the same Wi-Fi network. Once connected, you’ll have access to most remote features, including navigation, volume control, app launching, and even voice search, depending on your TV model.
