No, the process works directly through your phone’s browser at vizio.com/setup, though the app can enhance your experience later.

Try refreshing the page, ensuring you typed the code correctly, or restart your TV to generate a new code.

Yes, but your TV itself must be connected to Wi-Fi for the setup to complete.
Q4. Is mobile setup different from using a desktop?
Not at all—both processes are the same, but mobile gives you the flexibility to do it without leaving the couch.
Q5. Can I use one mobile device to activate more than one TV?
