Note: in order for Remote Service to work your TV must be connected to a high speed internet connection. If your TV cannot access the internet or your connection is too slow you will receive a message that you are unable to connect to Remote Service.

  • Yes, in order for the Samsung Care Pro to access and control your device it needs to be connected to a stable high speed network. If your device cannot access the internet or your network connection is unstable or slow you will receive a message that you are unable to connect to the Remote Management service.

  • Yes, the Remote Service system uses a secure connection between your device and our server. All information is stored on Samsungs servers and no third party company has access to this information. No unwanted information or malicious programs can be sent to your device.

  • No, the Remote Service system only allows Samsung to connect to your device for a single session. Once the connection is terminated Samsung cannot reconnect without a new PIN being generated by you. Powering off the device will also terminate any session immediately.

  • Yes, Samsung will be able to see the incoming picture. Through this, the Samsung Care Pro can determine if the problem is being caused by the input or the device. E.g: if the Samsung Care Pro connects to the TV and can see a line in the image then he/she knows that that line is being created by the incoming signal, not the TV. If the Samsung Care Pro cannot see the line we know that there is a problem with the TV.

  • No, Remote Service is offered free of charge to our customers. Samsung strives to constantly provide our customers with the best support for their products.

  • Once connected to your device a Samsung Care Pro can control it as if they were in front of the device itself. If you need to connect to Remote Service again the Samsung Care Pro can quickly review which settings have been changed from the previous session.

  • A Samsung Care Pro could see you through the built-in camera but only if they are accessing an app that uses the built-in camera (e.g. Camera app). The Samsung Care Pros will never access these types of apps while connected to your TV unless they are specifically asked to do so in order to test that particular app's functionality. You can set the camera to the closed position to prevent the Samsung Care Pro from seeing you while accessing the application. There is no way for the Samsung Care Pro to access your built-in camera without your knowledge.
