How do I use hand gestures to control my Samsung Smart TV?
Last Update date : Sep 21. 2020
Gesture control allows you to control the TV with hand motions. To use gesture control follow these steps:
Note:
● Gesture controls are not support by all Samsung TVs. Please refer your user manual to check availability of this feature.
● Gesture controls are not available all the time. Some Apps do not support gesture controls. If gesture controls are unavailable you will be required to use your TV remote.
1
Confirm that the gesture controls are enabled in the TV and that the camera is set for your viewing area.
2
Raise your hand and hold it up for about 2 seconds.
