First, you need to download the app I was talking about earlier. It’s the Samsung SmartThings app. Make sure to download it from Google PlayStore or App store depending upon whether you use an Android or iOS device.

- Launch the SmartThings app and register yourself by creating an account
- After you log in, tap on the + button you see on the top of the app.
- Now, navigate to device > under that tap on TV > select Samsung
- Select the model of your TV
- Once your TV shows up on the app, tap on it
- Then you will redirect to a remote controller like interface on the SmartThings app.
- On the top right corner, tap on the 3-dot button > tap on View TV on phone
- Again, tap on the 3-dot button > then select Play TV Sound on Phone
