You may be unable to use the voice control function with your 2024 Samsung Smart TV DU6000/7000/8000 series model. This is because the Samsung remote provided with your DU6000/7000/8000 series Smart TV does not support the function. However, you can use voice controls with your Smart TV if you have the SmartThings app on your phone or tablet.

Note: Bixby support specifications for the DU8000 series may vary depending on the region. The DU6000/7000 series models only support Bixby as the Voice Assistant.

In a stylish living room, a person uses a Galaxy phone to control a Samsung Smart TV through the SmartThings app's virtual remote, visible on the phone's screen, with the TV visible in the background

To use voice controls with the SmartThings app and Bixby, your Smart TV must be registered to the SmartThings app on your phone or tablet. You can use the steps below to register your Smart TV (necessary only if not done previously) and then use voice controls.

1 Navigate to and open the SmartThings app on your device, then tap the Devices tab, and then tap Add (the plus sign).
2 Tap Add under Samsung devices, then tap TV, and then select your device when it appears.

Note: From the Add device screen, you can also tap Scan nearby to find your device.

3 Follow the instructions to add your Smart TV to the app.
4 After successfully registering your TV, navigate to and select your Smart TV within the SmartThings app. Then, press and hold the Microphone icon displayed on the virtual remote's screen, and speak your command.
