I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this; it's technically not a TV issue.

Anyway, I recently changed my Android phone from a Samsung S3 mini (Android 4.1) to a Vodafone Ultra Smart (Android 5.0). Since the change the Netflix app works on the new phone, but the little icon allowing me to control the Netflix app on my Tivo is not there any more.

The icon appears when I use my Chromecast, but not for the Tivo. It worked on the Samsung and the Tivo is connected to my network using a wireless adapter. (I can use the TVAnywhere app to bring up a remote control and control my Tivo with it).

Is there a step I need to perform to get the phone app to talk to the TiVo, or is it just that my phone is not supported?
