Setting up your device
- Unlock Developer options. Open Settings → About. On Android TV and Google TV it's Settings → System → About or Settings → Device Preferences → About. Select Build number 7 times until you see "You are now a developer".
Projectors often hide this under System information. Try selecting the model name or version line 7 times. - Turn on debugging. Open Developer options and turn on USB debugging. If you see ADB over network, Network debugging or ADB debugging, turn that on too.
- Connect. Put your iPhone on the same Wi-Fi and open ADB Remote. Allow local network access when iOS asks. Your device should appear under Devices on this Wi-Fi.
- Approve your phone. Your TV shows "Allow USB debugging?". It calls your phone a "computer". Tick Always allow from this computer, then choose Allow.
Troubleshooting
No devices found
- Check that the iPhone and TV are on the same Wi-Fi network, not a guest network.
- In iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network, make sure ADB Remote is on.
- Enter the TV's IP address manually. You'll find it in the TV's network settings.
"Couldn't connect" or connection refused
- Network ADB is off. Turn on ADB over network (or similar) in Developer options.
- If your device only has Wireless debugging with a pairing code, connect it to a computer once and run
adb tcpip 5555. It stays on until the device restarts.
The TV never asked to allow my phone
- The prompt can hide behind a video. Press Home on the TV and try again.
- If you chose Cancel before, reconnect and the prompt appears again.
Tapping the preview doesn't select things
- Some TV apps are built only for the D-pad. Use the arrows and OK, or swipe on the preview to move through rows.
Removing access
To stop a phone from controlling your TV, open Developer options on the TV and choose Revoke USB debugging authorizations, or turn debugging off.
