Your LG remote, on your iPhone.

Lost your LG remote? LazyBinger turns your iPhone into a full remote for your LG TV running webOS — auto-detected on your Wi-Fi, with zero setup.

Your LG remote, on your iPhone.

Everything your iPhone drives on your LG

  • Power, navigate and set the volume on your LG — from your bed.
  • Full D-pad, play/pause and a keyboard for typing into search.
  • Eleven one-tap apps: Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube…
  • Premium: voice magic words (“sleepy time”) and camera intro auto-skip.

Which LG TVs work with it?

LazyBinger finds LG TVs running webOS automatically on your Wi-Fi. It's used across LG's line-up, including:

  • OLED evo
  • QNED
  • NanoCell
  • UHD

No model number to look up — if your LG is on the same Wi-Fi, it usually just shows up.

Connect your LG in 30 seconds

Open LazyBinger: your LG shows up on Wi-Fi by itself. One tap and it's paired.

After that everything runs over your local network — no account, no cloud. Wake-on-LAN even powers your LG back on from across the room in the morning.

LG not showing up? Quick fixes

  • Put your iPhone and your LG on the same Wi-Fi network — not a separate guest or “IoT” network. That's the number-one reason a TV won't appear.
  • Wake the LG and leave it on its home screen while LazyBinger scans. A TV in deep standby can stay invisible until it's powered on once.
  • If your router has “AP isolation” / “client isolation” on, or splits 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, turn isolation off so your iPhone can reach the LG.
