My Nevo App: How To Setup One For All Smart Remote URC 7945 & URC 7966

You have the One For All Smart Streamer, a modern remote designed to unify your entire viewing experience. It moves beyond traditional programming by using a powerful app to control up to five devices, similar to how the Smart Control Pro uses the OFA Advanced app. It’s one of the few universal remotes capable of controlling Amazon Fire TV, Stick, and Cube devices via Bluetooth and it works with both URC 7945 & URC 7966 remote models.

This guide is structured into distinct workflows. After the initial connection, you will follow the path that matches your Device.

Step 1: The Foundational Connection (App & Remote Pairing)

Before you can program any devices, you must first connect your smartphone to the remote. This process also updates your remote’s firmware to ensure the best performance.

  1. Download the App: On your smartphone or tablet, go to the App Store or Google Play and search for and install the “My Nevo” app.
  2. Insert Batteries: Your remote requires two AAA batteries.
  3. Initiate Pairing: When you first open the app, it will begin searching for your remote via Bluetooth. This initial connection and firmware check may take up to 30 seconds.
  4. Confirm the Connection: Once the app connects, the blue LED on your remote will begin to flash. The app will ask you to press the Home key on the remote to confirm the pairing. Please only press the Home key when the blue LED is flashing.

Step 2: The Standard Workflow (Setting Up TV, Soundbar, Blu-ray, etc.)

Follow this path for all your standard Audio/Video devices. The entire process is managed within the My Nevo app.

  1. Add Your Devices: Following the on-screen instructions, begin by adding your devices. It is recommended to set up your TV first. You can set up one TV, one Audio device (like a soundbar), and up to three source devices (like a cable box or Blu-ray player).
  2. Test and Save: For each device, the app will help you find the correct code by having you test key functions. Follow the prompts to test and save the configuration for each piece of equipment.
  3. Create Activities: The Smart Streamer is “activity-centric.” This means you will group your devices into activities like “Watch TV” or “Play”. The app will guide you through combining your devices (e.g., TV + Streaming Box + Soundbar) into one of the three Activity modes. When you press an Activity key, all devices in that group will power on and switch to the correct inputs. You can learn more about streamlining your experience with Activities in our detailed guide.

Step 3: The Specialist Workflow (Pairing Amazon Fire TV, Stick, or Cube)

This remote can control your Fire TV device via Bluetooth, but it requires a special, one-time pairing process. You will need your original, working Fire TV remote to complete these steps.

  1. Select the Correct Input: Turn on your TV and use your TV remote to switch to the HDMI input that your Fire TV device is connected to.
  2. Wake the Fire TV: Press any button on your original Fire TV remote to make sure the device is awake.
  3. Navigate to the Pairing Menu: Using your original Fire TV remote, navigate to the following menu on your TV screen: Settings > Controllers and Bluetooth Devices > Amazon Fire TV Remotes > Add New Remote.
  4. Pair the One For All Remote: Now, pick up your new Smart Streamer remote. Press and hold the Home key for 10 seconds. You will see it appear on the TV screen as a new “Amazon Remote”.
  5. Confirm with the Original Remote: Using your original Fire TV remote, select the new remote on the screen and press the center “Select” key to confirm the pairing.
  6. Add to an Activity: The remote is now paired. The final step is to go into the My Nevo app on your phone and add the now-paired Fire TV device to one of the Activity keys.

Step 4: Mastering Your Smart Streamer

  • Using Activities: To turn your system on, press the desired Activity key (e.g., WATCH TV). To turn your system off, press the main Power key at the top of the remote.
  • The AV Sync Key: If an Activity doesn’t start correctly (e.g., a device doesn’t turn on or the TV is on the wrong input), press and hold the Input key (labeled AV Sync) for 2 seconds. The remote will resend all the necessary commands to correct the issue.
  • App Shortcut Customization: You can program the three App Shortcut keys to open your favorite streaming apps. This is done by creating a macro (a sequence of key presses) within the “App Shortcut” section of the My Nevo app.
  • Using the Digit Shift Key: To type in channel numbers, press the 1-2-3 key. This will temporarily change the playback keys into a number pad. Press the key again to change them back.
Do I need to enter 4-digit codes to set this remote up?

No. The Smart Streamer is a modern, app-driven remote. The My Nevo app finds and tests the codes for you, so you do not need to enter any numbers manually (except when programming audio devices in some cases). For remotes that do require this method, you can find thousands of devices in our main One For All universal remote codes list.

Why do I need my original Fire TV remote to set up the One For All remote?

Your original remote is required to navigate the Fire TV’s on-screen menu to the “Add New Remote” screen. This is a necessary security and setup step required by the Fire TV operating system.

My devices didn’t all turn on when I pressed an Activity key. What should I do?

This is precisely what the AV Sync feature is for. Simply press and hold the Input key for 2 seconds. The remote will resend all the necessary power and input commands to get your devices in sync.

How do I type in a channel number since there’s no number pad?

You need to use the Digit Shift key (labeled “1-2-3”). Pressing this key will temporarily turn the playback and menu keys into a functioning number pad for channel entry.

Conclusion

You are now equipped to handle the full capabilities of your One For All Smart Streamer remote. By following the correct workflow for your specific devices, you can unify your entire home theater system—including your Amazon Fire TV—under one simple, powerful controller.
