    How to Change Input on Hisense TV Without Remote

    If you connect an external device like a gaming console or a streaming device to your Hisense TV, you will need to change the source to access it. Using the remote control to switch the input is usually straightforward. If you have lost your remote, you can still switch the input on your Hisense TV without it using different methods. Knowing these alternatives ensures you can easily access your connected devices whenever you need to.

    Use Physical Buttons to Change Input on Hisense TV

    Generally, all Hisense TVs come with physical buttons for emergency needs. You can find those buttons on the TV’s back left or right corner or underneath the TV logo. If your Hisense TV has an Input button, press it to display the list of available input options. Navigate through the options using the Channel or Volume buttons to select your desired input. Then, confirm the input by pressing the Menu button.

    Press the Input button to change the Hisense TV source

    For Hisense Roku TVs, there will be only one Power button. Press the Power button on your Hisense TV to turn it on. Then, hold the Power button for a few seconds to bring up the input options. Use repeated presses of the Power button to scroll through the available input options on your Roku TV. When you reach the desired input, stop pressing the Power button. Your Hisense Roku TV will automatically switch to that input.

    Use Remote Apps to Change Input on Hisense TV

    If you prefer not to use physical buttons, you can use remote apps to change the Hisense TV input. To accomplish this, ensure your Hisense TV is connected to the same WiFi as the phone with the remote app installed.

    Download the suitable remote app on your phone, depending on the Hisense TV model.

    Then, run the suitable remote app and choose your Hisense TV to link it with the app. When the pairing is successful, you will be able to use the remote functions. Locate and tap the Input button to switch your Hisense TV to that source.

    Using Voice Assistants to Change Input on Hisense TV

    If you are having trouble with other methods, you can switch the input source using voice commands. First, ensure that Google Assistant or Alexa is set up on your Hisense TV. Install the appropriate remote app for your smartphone, pair it with your TV, and open the app. Tap the Mic button to start issuing commands.

    Use the remote app to change the TV source

    You can then say, “Hey Google, change the input on my Hisense TV to <HDMI name>” or “Alexa, switch the input on my Hisense TV to <HDMI name>.”

    If you own a Hisense Roku TV, you can use the Roku Voice feature to change the input without any additional setup. Simply use voice commands by tapping the Microphone icon in the Roku app and say “Change the input” or “Switch to HDMI 2.”

    Using External Devices to Change Input on Hisense TV

    If you have a wireless mouse or keyboard, you can use these devices to change the input source on your Hisense Smart TV. Many Hisense TVs feature a USB port on the back panel. Once you connect a keyboard or mouse to the TV’s USB port, you can use its navigation buttons to access the TV’s settings and select the desired input source.

    Note – Consider buying a wireless keyboard from Amazon. It can also be used to control the TV and computer.

    Besides the keyboard and mouse, you can buy a universal remote from Amazon and use it to switch inputs on your Hisense TV. After purchasing one, pair it with your Hisense TV using the correct remote code. Then, press the Input or Settings key on a universal remote to navigate the TV settings and choose the input source you want.

    Summing Up

    Adjusting the input on your Hisense TV lets you seamlessly use external devices on a bigger screen. Switching the source is a more efficient and flexible option than constantly disconnecting devices.

    FAQ

    1. Why is my Hisense TV changing input on its own?

    2. Where is the input button on a Hisense TV?

    You can find the INPUT button on the back right of the Hisense TV panel.
