Philips Smart TV models that support this feature will have the "Amazon Alexa" client app on the Home screen. If the selected models are bundled with a TV remote control that has an Alexa activation button, make sure your TV is paired with the remote control. Your TV should also be connected to the Internet. If the app is not on the Home screen, your TV may not be supporting this feature.

Use the TV name to tell Alexa which device to control. Pick a unique name for the TV you set up. For example: “TV”, “Living Room TV” etc. 3. VOICE CONTROL
You can trigger Alexa by pressing the Alexa activation button on the TV remote (selected models only). You will need to use the TV’s name when you want to control your TV with Alexa, e.g. “volume up on TV”, “next channel on Living room TV”, etc. First time you ask Alexa to control your Philips Smart TV using the TV name, Alexa will assume any applicable commands should control the same TV for a period of time. If you want to move away from controlling your TV, here are a few of the many things that you can ask Alexa to do.
“Alexa, what’s the weather today?” “Alexa, play a song”
“Alexa, read my audiobook”
“Alexa, show my to-do list”
“Alexa, set 5 minutes timer”
“Alexa, how big is Earth?”
“Alexa, what’s the news?” You can use the following Amazon Alexa voice commands to control your Smart TV:
