A nice and easy alternative to the Apple TV remote. Worked right out the box with the Apple TV and didn't take long to pair with the TV set. Only thing missing is voice control but it's a small trade off if wanting to have a traditional remote is important.

Great value for the cost. It worked from the first time I pressed a button. Already programmed to work for my Apple TV!

Setup was easy and very straightforward. Sometimes Apple goes overboard with the slimness. This remote hit the right spot.

Love the Apple TV, hated the remote. This replacement works flawlessly with our Apple TV 4K and takes all the frustration out of the track pad on the Apple remote and is much less expensive than Apple's new remote. Great product.

sometimes it sticks and have to restart it. Can be on a channel but does not allow us to change it. It is much easier to use the new cable boxes, but different.

Works with the Apple tv box ok. Thou sometimes it can be finicky. My Sony tv remote works better. Not saying this is not worth buying.

I liked everything about this remote; it has what I was looking for and a little more than what the Apple TV remote lacks. However, if you use the Siri function a lot this remote isn’t for you. It comes without Siri. You know what else it comes without? A box. It was sent in a shipping bag without a box, instructions, etc.. It was bizarre. Immediate return.

Half the buttons worked and couldn't get the the other half to pair using the "learn remote" feature of the Apple TV's 4k Gen 1.

Neat item, I lost my Apple TV remote and this was a very suitable replacement, and in some ways, easier to use than the standard remote in some ways. I like it - will keep using.

Nice replacement for the old (slippery) silver Apple TV clicker. Controls the TV too, which is convenient.

3 Stars because it did not work for me. It is Line of Sight, so if it cannot see your device, it will not work.

I've been waiting a month for this item. BB chat tells me its out of stock but their website continues to falsely offer it. Best Buy refuses to cancel the order and return my reward certificates.

Returned it. Did not work as advertised. I am very knowledgeable in electronics. Tried everything I could think of and wouldn’t work. Apple 4K tv. 3rd gen. Buttons wouldn’t program and only half worked. Tried two of them.
