Supported Yes — Remote Pro controls it
Toshiba smart TVs run Fire TV and Google TV / Android TV, and all of those are platforms Remote Pro speaks natively — over your own WiFi, no extra hardware.
Toshiba-branded sets in the US are Fire TV Editions; in other markets Toshiba has shipped Android TV and its own systems. Fire TV and Android TV both work with Remote Pro — the Alexa button on the remote is the giveaway for Fire TV.
The home screen answers this faster than the model number does.
Fire TV sets, sticks and cubes boot to Amazon’s home screen with a row of tabs across the top, and the remote has an Alexa button with a blue microphone icon.
Android TV and Google TV sets boot to a Google home screen of content rows, list the Google Play Store in their apps, and the remote has a Google Assistant microphone button.
Setup
Your Toshiba (Fire TV) and your iPhone need to be on the same WiFi network. That is the only requirement — no dongle, no hub, no infrared.
Put the iPhone and the Fire TV on the same WiFi network.
Open Remote Pro and tap Scan. The Fire TV appears by its device name.
Tap it. A 4-digit PIN appears on the TV screen — type it into Remote Pro. No Amazon account, no sign-in, no profile picking, no developer options and no ADB.
Paired. Navigation, OK, back, home, menu, playback, sleep, and iPhone-keyboard typing into Fire TV search and password fields — the single best reason to use a phone as a Fire TV remote.

Setup
Your Toshiba (Google TV / Android TV) and your iPhone need to be on the same WiFi network. That is the only requirement — no dongle, no hub, no infrared.
Connect your iPhone to the same WiFi network as the TV. Not the guest network, and turn off any VPN on the phone — a VPN hides the TV from it.
Open Remote Pro and tap Scan. Android TV and Google TV devices announce themselves on the network by name.
Tap your TV. It puts a 6-digit pairing code on screen — type that into Remote Pro. This is Google’s own encrypted handshake, and it only happens once.
Paired. Full D-pad, OK, back, home, volume, mute, power, playback, and your iPhone keyboard typing straight into search and sign-in fields.

The honest part
Volume and channel do not work over the network on Fire TV — not in Remote Pro, and not in any other app. Amazon’s protocol simply has no volume command; the physical remote sends volume over infrared or HDMI-CEC to the television instead. Apps that show volume buttons anyway are failing silently. Remote Pro disables them and says why, and you use the TV’s own volume (or the TV brand’s app) alongside.
Fire TV devices stay network-awake in standby, so Remote Pro can wake one up — useful when the physical remote has vanished entirely.
The TV has to be awake for that first pairing, because you need to read the 6-digit code off the screen. After it is paired, Remote Pro can wake it from standby.
Remote Pro implements the current (v2) Android TV remote protocol — the one every Google TV and recent Android TV device uses. A very old set-top box still on the original protocol may not pair.
An iPhone has no infrared blaster, so a television that is only controllable by infrared cannot be controlled by any phone app — ours or anyone else’s. We say that on every page rather than hide it in a review reply.
The official Amazon Fire TV app is free and works well — after you sign into an Amazon account and pick a profile. If you would rather not log in, or it is not your Amazon account, Remote Pro pairs with the device itself.
Google’s free Google TV app has a built-in remote and it is good, provided you are signed into a Google account on your phone. Remote Pro pairs with the device directly, no account needed, and covers your Samsung, Fire TV and Roku gear too.
Remote Pro controls Samsung, Fire TV, Android TV / Google TV and Roku from one app, over your own WiFi. Full D-pad, volume where the platform supports it, and a real iPhone keyboard for search fields.
