SmartThings app on Android phone to control TV

[dresnick]

I just bought a smart TV from Samsung.  I want to control it from my Android phone.  I searched for the SmartThings app on Google Play Store on my phone, but the response reads, "This app won't work for your device."  Would someone tell me where I can find a list of the minimum requirements for a phone on which the app would work?  Or a list of compatible phones?  Thanks.

"[App requirements]
Some mobile devices may not be supported.
- RAM size : 2GB over
- Galaxy : Smart View to support screen mirroring"

Also, using phone as remote (besides just mirroring or control with app) require IR sensor/blaster on the phone which most don't have today.

if you have a tablet most of them have IR infrared

Does anyone know what "RAM size : 2GB over" means?  My phone has 2 GB total memory.  Does "over" mean "left over after other running apps have reserved some of the memory for their use"?  Re how I want to use the phone, I was hoping that with Smart Things running, I could use the phone to enter long strings, instead of using the TV's wand and its virtual keyboard, for example when searching for content.
