I just discovered that if you tap the home button when displaying the scroll bar, the current time is displayed and at what time will you finish watching the movie. Pretty neat!
Good video. Thanks. Also, if you double click the home button, you can scroll through all open apps. I love this feature. Would like to see an AppleTV tips and tricks video.
This video was very helpful. I did not know about charging the remote and I don't remember getting a message from the TV about my battery level. Now my remote is not responding to anything. It is too bad that you can't see if your battery is charging when you plug it in. I guess you just have to plug it in and keep checking it to see if it works. Right now my remote is not working and the white light on my Apple box does not stay on. When I unplug the power cord, it comes on for a minute and then goes out. I assume that is because my remote needs to be charged.
I just bought the Apple TV box to replace Amazon Firestick. My live TV service is Tek Savvy TV. Is there a way Apple TV remote can click back and forth from current station to last station? Handy if 2 games on live tv at the same time.
I’m not familiar with any resources of that nature. I do know you can use Siri for most basic functions like play, pause, volume and search as shown in the video. My best recommendation would be trial and error. Also remember Siri changes over time, so it will likely gain more functionality over time!
Do you have any short cuts to work the DVR recording and deleting of shows? Also my DVR seems to be defaulted to series and I cant figure out how to just record one show verses getting a series. I am with Spectrum Streaming through the Apple TV
On my older remote I could press a button to play the sound through my AirPods. I still get that pop up on the screen telling me to press the button but there isn’t one anymore. Is there another option to do this on this new remote? It’s much easier/faster than having to go to settings and do it there. Thank you!
My center top button does not select the item I am on. Instead it jumps to whatever is left. Should I reboot to get the select button to work? I consider it the most important button
Thanks. It’s still confusing because I am using it through spectrum and their app which is terrible. I also don’t have Apple TV itself so not that intuitive. Mostly I find it hard to navigate in shows I’ve recorded. Moving ahead and back isn’t that easy.
Really good video, only thing missing was the app-switching view. Can you suggest a charging brick to charge the remote?? This is my first ever Apple device so I just have the cable it came with it.
Press Siri button and say “Battery level” and the Remote battery status will be displayed. If you have Airplay Max headphones, their battery level will be displayed also.
This remote absolutely sucks for controlling Spectrum TV. This video helps a little, but I look forward to next year, when I can switch back to Verizon/Frontier so I can get a much easier remote to deal with. I am a diehard Apple customer, but I HATE using this remote. HATE, HATE, HATE IT. Plus the Spectrum screens are much more confusing than Frontier. Maybe this is caused by Apple TV, but I have no way of telling.
An Apple TV , for new users video would be helpful. Start at the beginning. What is diffwrent aboit Apple TV vs. A cable TV multibutton remote controlled method of seeing what is on the air vs. Only being able to use apps !
I would like tips on how to never use the remote - use only voice commands to a HomePod Mini. The best remote is the one you never have to find, charge, or buy. Just use your voice.
10 second jump working on youtube??? 1st gen remote is working ( skip 10 seconds -autoplay )but 2gen remote not working on youtube ( right ring click- 10 seconds jump- click play)
You got the last model. I found on facebook people scamming saying they have a apple tv4k new edition when it’s the previous model. Had to do a lot of research to choose the right one. They all look very similar.
There is directions for the remote. It is not user friendly. We got this because the Apple TV+ app on our Samsung will not work. Need more tips and tricks
There aren’t that many buttons and they all feel different, the back button is convex and the control centre button is flat. So it’s not bad in the dark once you’ve used it a few times!
After a few hours of ownership, I totally agree that these are two criticisms - can't see the keys in dimmed room; have no idea if the remote is charging while it was plugged in, or how long to keep it plugged in, otherwise it's a pretty substantial improvement over the previous Siri remote.
Swipe down? Swipe where? Come again, guess this video who knows all the jargon. My remote is useless, no longer can use my tv, a Samsung with Apple TV 4K. It will not play subtitules, even though in settings they are On. so I am left out.
This is a great video. Is there a quick way to switch audio to bluetooth headset that is already configured? Thanks
Some buttons you can long press for addiotional functions
Very useful to someone who has too many different remotes. I would like a hints and tips video. Thanks
I just discovered that if you tap the home button when displaying the scroll bar, the current time is displayed and at what time will you finish watching the movie. Pretty neat!
That’s cool! Thanks for sharing that tip!
Not able to do this
How do you get the new remote to sinc with the Apple TV, TV and sound bar?
Would love tips and tricks
Great video. I’ve never known how to use this remote property and this vid is awesome. TY 😊
Thanks!!
Thanks for this! And yes, I would love Apple TV tips and tricks!
What about live tv? Can this rewind if you walked out of the room? I can’t figure it out? A little help!
Is there a way to fast forward and pause when watching tv shows? I can do it watching movies but not on cable tv shows. Thank you for your help!
It’s app dependant, so there’s not much we can do as users if it doesn’t work the same as for movies.
I can’t trigger job wheel function for some reason is it only available on the appletv plus videos?
what about the home button??
Good video. Thanks. Also, if you double click the home button, you can scroll through all open apps. I love this feature. Would like to see an AppleTV tips and tricks video.
Np! Thanks for watching!
I only have 1 app, but I need to get to the main home of Apple TV. Nothing works

I believe it shows the battery level in the settings app. I’m not sure where but I’m sure google knows. I did charge my when I first got the Apple TV.
There is a remote on other Apple products that will work with Apple TV. iPhones and iPads.
Please do a tips and tricks video.
What right or left buttons?
very helpful!

Just switched over to YoutudeTV and I'm using Apple TV's on my TVs. This video was a big help!!
can one video record from the Apple TV?
Good Morning, watched great video. Question is there information somewhere where you can learn what commands you can have new Siri remote!
Sorry, I don’t quite understand the question. The video goes over all the functions.
@@TechIRL00 where can you find commands to give Siri when using Apple Streaming? Thanks

My best recommendation would be trial and error. Also remember Siri changes over time, so it will likely gain more functionality over time!
@@TechIRL00 I’m sorry I meant the voice commands you can give her? Do you have a video on that?
Thanks Judi

How can I get rid of the control center on my screen? This just started and I don't want it.

How to switch between HDMI ports from the TV?
How do I zoom & unhook using the remote?
How does the vcr work with this? I having lots of trouble.
This remote won’t work with VCRs. Only the Apple TV box and some basic TV functions. It’s not a universal remote.
Thanks. It’s still confusing because I am using it through spectrum and their app which is terrible. I also don’t have Apple TV itself so not that intuitive. Mostly I find it hard to navigate in shows I’ve recorded. Moving ahead and back isn’t that easy.
How do I find the home screen?
Thank you!! I have been so annoyed why they got rid of Siri as Siri button was on front in my old Apple TV. Didn’t think of looking on the side 😂
Glad to help! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!!!!

Really good video, only thing missing was the app-switching view. Can you suggest a charging brick to charge the remote?? This is my first ever Apple device so I just have the cable it came with it.
The cable plugs in to your tv for power.
These robot narrators are getting better every day
change Siri butten ???
Press Siri button and say “Battery level” and the Remote battery status will be displayed. If you have Airplay Max headphones, their battery level will be displayed also.
It did not work for my Apple TV HD ??
@@kansein9294 No, after recent Apple tvOS update that voice command no longer works.

Where exactly is the siri microphone ? Remote on Apple TV? Doyou need to talk to remote?
My freaking control won’t turn on a and off my tv

Tips and tricks sound good but first basic instruction is required.
got my apple tv 4k yesterday it’s pretty cool! U wouldn’t spend 179 on it but I got mine for 130 after taxes it was a good deal
Congrats!!
Tbh even this one could be improved , why have a mute AND a pause button ?
10 second jump working on youtube??? 1st gen remote is working ( skip 10 seconds -autoplay )but 2gen remote not working on youtube ( right ring click- 10 seconds jump- click play)

Buttons aren't illuminated, no indicator to tell you it's charging - two huge lacks for a remote that costs this much.
There aren’t that many buttons and they all feel different, the back button is convex and the control centre button is flat. So it’s not bad in the dark once you’ve used it a few times!
@@TechIRL00 Thanks for the input. Just because I can get used to something doesn't mean I want to or should have to.

Almost. 7 minutes and you can't say anything about the mic hole at top dead center. This video should be renamed tvOS.
👍
my name is Michael Westen.... i used to be a spy....
One of my favourite shows!!
Glad they updated it w/ physical directional pad, the old remote is hot trash 🔥🗑 - Its such a poor experience to navigate content -
