Maybe. Most universal remotes work by using infrared (IR) signals, but not all soundbars work with IR-based remotes. Instead, they accept commands over WiFi, so you can use an app as a remote control.If you want to use a universal remote with a VIZIO soundbar, make sure the one you buy accepts IR commands, or check your remote’s documentation to see if it can send commands over WiFi (some high-end universal remotes can).
