Broken remote

My Apple TV remote doesn’t work and I have always used the remote app on my IPhone. But I can’t do that anymore because we have change our wi-fi so I have a diffrent wi-fi om my phone now. The problem is that i can’t connect the TV to the new wi-fi because my remote doesn’t work... Is there a way to make it work or is it garbage?

You can try to re-link or re-pair your Apple TV remote (If your Apple TV remote isn’t working - Apple Support)

or purchase a replacement remote, if the above doesn’t work.


Possibly you can continue configuring the use of the software remote on your phone, by using a temporarily borrowed remote.
