Apple TV & Home Audio Remote Controls

Upgrade Your Watching Experience With an Apple TV Remote

An Apple TV remote delivers the same functions as generic remote, but is specifically designed for the Apple TV. Depending on the model, the remote can also offer control of peripheral devices and in-built functions, including your speaker system, DVD or Blu-Ray players, streaming services, or alternative entertainment options. eBay offers a range of Apple TV remote controls for you to choose from, all at affordable prices.

If you have more than one Apple TV and don't want to drag the remote room to room, you can install an Apple TV remote app to control your device. The app is compatible with all iOS devices and works well when your Apple TV and mobile phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network and running the latest version of Apple software. It is also compatible with Android devices through a special app called Remote TV for Android. Just like an iOS device, the app features responsive gesture functionality, and it also comes with ad and pop-up blocking to allow uninterrupted viewing.

Not all Apple TV remotes are fully functional when used with all Apple TV devices, so you should always check the manufacturer's website before purchase to ensure compatibility. The range of models available to Apple TV users, however, include:

• Siri Remote: Compatible with Apple TV 4K and Apple TV fourth-gen. This comes with touch navigation, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 and IR connectivities.
• Apple TV Remote: Exactly the same as the Siri remote, this model name is used in areas where Siri is not available.
• Apple Remote (aluminium): Compatible with Apple TV second- and third-gen. It works with other Apple TV models, but only with limited functionality.
• Apple remote (white): This model works with first-gen Apple TVs. Again, it can be paired with other models, but only with limited functionality.
