I must agree with DaTruth.  I wanted this mobile app to work so badly, because the remote offered with U-verse is terrible. Who doesn't make an RF remote? Voice recognition, even Rocu's have it!! 

I was hoping this would solve all the inferiorites of the uverse remote.  I will NOT even recognize my iphone 7 or 8, simply tells me that I need to check my wifi setting to make sure both phone and TV are on the same wifi...DUH..it is.  Please give me some advice?  

A 45 minute phone call with tech support couldn't even help.

Hello. If on iOS, try version 6.2.3 which was released recently and see if any improvement.  

Some users have reported issues using the app with Android 10.

Receiver discovery only works when connected to the WiFi of the gateway, and won’t work if connected to an access point.

Let's get your U-verse TV app working again @kibbles95!

 

The issue mentioned in this thread can be resolved normally by rebooting the gateway and all of the DVR receivers at the TVs. 

 

Rebooting them will sync them all up which will also resolve issues with the mobile app. 

 

Please let us know if this resolves the issue!

We can get you connected to the U-verse app @kibbles95!

 

First, what device are you using to connect to the U-verse app? Have you tried another device or logging in directly on the website? Do you get the same result?

 

Thank you for using the previous steps we suggested. Next, we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the app from your device. While you are waiting for it to uninstall, go ahead and reset your gateway / modem one more time. Once everything is back up, check to make sure your device is connected to the same Wi-Fi as the receiver.

 

If you are still experiencing issues with the app, we recommend our troubleshoot and resolve tool. Remember to log in with your myAT&T account credential to get personalized troubleshooting steps and diagnostics.

 

If you need any additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

I have also uninstalled and reinstalled apps on both phones. I've also gone to each box and enabled them also I've unplugged the router any other box also and plugged them back into reset. Also when I was in the enabled app on the box it shows what looks like to be that my phones have access

Same issue here using s9, can't get it to connect.  It shows under enabled devices my old s7 and s5.  Those used to work.  I'm thinking maybe it doesn't work because they removed the remote control technology from the phones.  I remember Samsung used to have the ability on older phones to be used as a remote.  Is the Uverse app dependent on the same technology?  I would think the app was using wifi but maybe not.
