      this is how smart people think. you want to be smarter, go figure. the whole idea of apple design is to be different and that is how they manage to provide smart products for smart people forget about the common people who just wants to use the product.

      @@dom1954 I get your humor. But even smart people hate the Siri remote. One of our relatives is the top person at one of the Apple sites -- a very smart person -- and even he agrees that it may be the worst remote he's ever seen. Apple developers and designers never watched a substantial sampling of people use the remote. Or -- even worse -- they did but they ignored the results. I've heard that Apple is coming out with a new one ... but it will be pricey (of course). Our wifi provider has known that the remote is awful for a long time, so they built their own Apple TV remote and have been offering it for $12. I've ordered one, so we'll see. One last thing: Apple thinks everyone loves using a voice interface (a very poor one in the case of the Siri remote) in general. No, a whole lot of us don't.

    • @phillman5
      @phillman5 2 роки тому

      Any USB-A or USB-C to Lightning cable with do. Go to Settings/Remotes and Devices. Shows the battery level there. I do not agree with this video saying to recharge every month. Pretty sure this is using a Li Ion battery and they do not like being 100% charged all the time. Nor do they like a low charge. I'd say try to keep them about 30 - 60%. I have no idea how long charging takes. If battery gets low you get a warning on screen. I just did and the battery was at 16% charge and the last time I charged it was years ago (but we don't use it much, I picked it up used with no documentation, so operation and all it can do has been by trial and error.)

      After year and years of using iPod click wheels, iPhones, and Mac track pads, I’d argue that this remote is fairly simply and straight forward to operate. Remembering all the button combinations may take some practice but the alternative is having a button for each feature and then you just have every other remote and probably still can’t remember what that bottom does.

    I'm sorry, I so wanted to like Apple TV since it can have the Spectrum App, otherwise I would've gone with Firestick. This remote is poorly designed, it's like it wanted to be Firestick, but had to make it different and just went to hell with itself, navigation is so bad. Firestick remote is break through in human understanding, the greatest remote ever invented. I'm in no way affiliated with Amazon, so I don't have a dog in this fight, just want a remote that doesn't stink. Scrolling through channels is a nightmare with this thing, it's so slow and my finger feels like it's going to fall off trying to find a station in the Spectrum app - no way to down page, eh? Agree with other feedback, no way to know how to use this thing without watching a video like this one. Apple needs to hire someone who has some common sense and make a remote the is awesome - it can be done as it was done years ago by another company.

    This remote is the most annoying handheld remote control ever created. One of the things we all love about remote controls not having to look at it, just knowing which button is which by feel. Also whenever you pick up a remote it shouldn’t engage a button. Every time I pick up this remote something happens on the touchpad by accident and it makes me want to throw it through the wall. Everytime. I don’t even know if I’m holding the remote right when I pick it up I always have to double check that I’m holding it correctly. It slips out of my hand constantly, they may as well have made one coated in olive oil. The best thing to happen to this is I got a universal remote which took over for this for IP control. It has tactile buttons, up down left right buttons, oh yeah those. Apple remote designer Idiots.

    Is there a shortcut to easily go back to the 0:00 mark (beginning) of a youtube video you’re watching with just one to three clicks? Right now I am required to tap several times (rewind) just to get back to the 0:00 mark.
    My kid likes watching Blippi videos every morning but he likes to watch it from the start then not finish it, So the following day, when we play the same video, it starts from where we left off so we have to drag it all the way back to the start every time. A real trouble because my son would start crying like crazy if it takes me too long to get the video playing from the beginning. #TiredDad

    Here’s a tip: as soon as feasible, put the Apple remote down, never touch it again and use a Harmony Elite instead.

      Thanks! I have a tile floor. Apple TV Remote is very fragile; thus, remote and hard surface tiles do not mix when gravity is allowed to take its course. Getting a Harmony Elite soon!

    All I want to do is fast forward or do a 10 sec jump forward... nope. I can’t even figure it out.

      To jump 10 seconds, you can just press down on the right side of the touch surface to make it click. Do the same to rewind it by clicking on the left side of the touch surface.
      To fast forward, pause the video then scroll right on the touch surface to fast forward quickly to wherever you want.

      You can also use the voice button and tell it to rewind and ff in any increment of time you want

      Agree. What the hell was Apple thinking

      @@eldonphukuile Probably comparing it to a conventional remote with a left, right, up and down arrow and an OK center button. Apple should have ditched the track pad and gone with a more Roku type design. Would have been much more user friendly.

      If you want to dumb-down your remote capabilities to make it simpler to use, you can use a 3rd generation Apple TV infrared remote instead. $20/USD.
