The present disclosure provides a method for switching control modes of a smart TV, a device and a computer readable medium. The method comprises: collecting a user's first triggering operation when the smart TV set is in a first control mode; according to a preset switching operation corresponding to a first control mode, verifying whether a first triggering operation is a switching operation for switching the first control mode into a second control mode; if yes, switching the control mode of the smart TV set from the first control mode to the second control mode. The technical solution of the present embodiment may be employed to implement the switching of different control modes of the TV set so that at the same time, the smart TV set is only located in one control mode so that messy control of the smart TV set will not be caused, and the control efficiency of the smart TV set is effectively improved.
