I just spent 20 minutes trying to find the Apple TV remote. All the remote finder feature did was give vague signals on if the remote is nearby or far. Why has the TV been such an after thought for Apple? It’s also frustrating that I can’t set my soundbar as the default audio output.
Why would you use your remote which can only control the volume instead of using your phone that can control the volume and the music? If you are using the remote, you have to be in the room with the TV to see the screen.
My Apple TV uses a Sonos Beam for sound and while the remote controls the volume the Apple Remote “app” does not.
