How to Adjust the Volume Without a Remote on a Hisense TV

Hisense TVs come with a functional and user-friendly remote control that controls volume and other functions. But what if the remote stops working or you lose it somehow? Luckily, that doesn't mean your viewing experience gets stuck on a single volume level.

There are ways to adjust the volume on your Hisense TV without the remote. Here are some ideas you can consider.

How to Adjust the Volume Without the Remote on a Hisense TV

Has your Hisense TV remote been acting up lately? You may need to replace the batteries or need a new remote.

Until you have solved the problem and found a solution, an effective way to adjust the volume of the TV is necessary. Keeping your finger on both volume buttons while watching a movie seems necessary these days.

One minute the sound is exploding, and the next you can't hear a word someone is saying. Therefore, try the following solutions if the remote control is out of reach or not working properly.

Look for the buttons

If you're standing near the TV, adjusting the volume using the designated buttons is often more convenient. Instead of searching for the remote under the sofa cushions, you just need to press the volume up or volume down button several times.

Now keep in mind that there are dozens of Hisense TV models and not all of them have the same control buttons. Some may not even have volume buttons, only the power button. If you've never had to investigate the layout of the control buttons on your Hisense, now might be the time to do it.

Look behind the TV and the volume controls are probably hidden on the sides. Also, some Hisense TV models offer volume adjustment via the power button. To change volume settings, follow these steps:

1. Push the power button left or right. You will see the volume change.
2. When you reach the desired settings, release the button.

Notes: By pressing the front and rear power button, you can change the channels on your Hisense TV.

Use the RemoteNOW app

You don't really need to use a remote control with your Hisense TV. Instead, you can turn your smartphone or tablet into a remote control.

Let's face it; our phones are nearby anyway and much easier to locate when you're lounging on the couch. So why not have the remote control on your phone while you google the cast of the show you're watching?

Hisense has its own remote control app called RemoteNow, and it's available for both iOS and Android devices. Here's how to use your mobile device to adjust the volume and many other settings on your Hisense TV:

1. Download and install the RemoteNow app on your device.
   
2. Make sure your smartphone and Hisense TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Launch the RemoteNow app on your device.
   
4. Continue setup by scanning for available devices on your RemoteNow app.
   
5. Once your Hisense TV is detected, make sure the devices are properly paired.
   

You can do a lot with the RemoteNow app, like directly access streaming services, search for content, and even view photos and videos from your phone.

Best of all, you can adjust the volume effortlessly. The app interface has a volume bar on the left side, and by tapping the “+” or “–” symbols, you can get the volume to your desired level.

Use the Roku Remote App

Some newer Hisense TV models use Roku OS, giving viewers even more entertainment choices. But that's not the only benefit of this combination, as it means you can also use the Roku Remote app to control volume and other functions.

If you love Roku OS and like the minimalist approach to their interface, you can download the Roku Remote app for either. iOS or Android devices. Here's what you need to do next:

1. Make sure your Hisense TV and your Roku remote app are using the same Wi-Fi network.
2. Launch the app and follow the on-screen instructions to pair it with the TV.
   
3. Select the Remote tab on the app and start changing volume settings.
   

Use the Google Home app

Users of older Hisense TV models can also rely on Chromecast devices to get the most out of their viewing experience.

A Chromecast is an inexpensive tool that lets you stream content and adjust the volume through the Google Home app. If you haven't gone through the setup process yet, here's how it works:

1. Plug the Chromecast device into the HDMI port of the Hisense TV.
   
2. Download and install the Google Home app on your iOS or Android device.
   
3. Select the "Set up new devices in your home" option and follow the on-screen instructions.
   

Once your Google Home app is connected to Chromecast, you will see the Hisense TV icon every time you open it on your device.

When casting via Chromecast, you will find the volume control bar in the Google Home app. You can move it with your finger and adjust the volume levels as you like.

Maintain volume control on your Hisense TV

The TV remote control is a very important household device. Ideally, it would always be in the same place at all times. But that's not always the case, and it's not uncommon to spend a lot of time looking for the remote to crank up the volume.

Rather than giving up, turn to the RemoteNow app for your Hisense TV and adjust the sound with just a few taps on the screen. If your Hisense runs on Roku OS, you can use the proprietary Roku remote control available in the App Store and Play Store.

Also, don't forget to check the on-screen buttons, especially if you're having Wi-Fi issues.
