Sideclick Remotes SC2-APG4K Universal Remote Attachment for Apple TV Gen 4

The remote came yesterday and it worked as advertised. It learned the codes from my existing TV remote and was plenty powerful enough to work from across a sizable room. It came with the two AAA batteries it runs on. I hope they will last a year or so. I use this one in the bedroom at night so it would be handy if it has some kind of button illumination but it doesn't. I just had to keep the order of the buttons straight and go by touch. Power is at the top so that is easy to use by touch but the input button is third from the bottom so that was only slightly harder to keep straight. I could have used the "B" button for the input button since its at the bottom and I did not assign it a function yet. Its hard plastic so I miss the rubbery grip of my old case but not a big loss. The remote feels wide in the my hand now but no problems reaching the buttons on the far left side or any buttons/touch pad on the apple remote. The remote sits snugly in the device, which is nice.I am happy enough with it that I bought another one for my Family room ATV. This is definitely not a required product but for me I love not having to deal with two remotes anymore and for $30 it doesn't break the bank.

This is a great learning remote. It only has 8 programmable buttons, but if you think about what you really need, it will serve you well. My stereo is a Bose that has HDMI inputs from my DVR and AppleTV Gen 4. Here are my button assignments: 1) Bose on/off, 2) DVR on/off, 3) AppleTV Menu button, 4) TV on/off, 5) TV picture button, 6) TV down arrow, 7) TV up arrow, 8) TV select. My DVR is complicated with a lot of buttons, so I use that remote separately. But with just two remotes, I very rarely use my Bose and TV remotes. Not trying to have one remote do everything has made it much more simple for my wife and I. We are so well pleased with this product that we ordered a second one as a spare. Again—if you sit down to think about what functions you need, and let Anynet functionality work for you, you might find that most of the time you only need a few buttons, too. Isn’t that much better than remembering to hit the TV button to select TV mapped functions, DVR buttons to hit DVR mapped functions, and so on? Incidentally: this is an easy to use learning remote that took only 5 minutes to program.

The Sideclick works amazing well at exactly what it says it does, controlling the parts of your TV that your AppleTV remote can't. Easy to program for my set and makes its so you don't need several remotes by cradling your AppleTV remote. So why isn't this 5 stars? Well, I have a bunch of little gripes. In no way are these dealbreakers, just things I would pay extra money for if there was a better model, which there isn't. 1st is it's size, since it add considerable dimensions to your flat and fashionable AppleTV remote. Now your remote is big and plastic. Yeah, I care about that, I'm an Apple guy who like my stuff looking cool. Second, instead of using power from the AppleTV remote it needs its own batteries, which are AAA. More batteries, more waste. Lastly it doesn't fit as comfortably in the hand if your hands are small. The bigger your hand, the better you'll like it. I guess that's it. Hope they come out with a sleeker model, but for now it definitely gets the job done.

I’ve been using SideClicks since I bought my first Amazon Fire Stick (with the original small remote) so I knew what I was buying was going to be great and last practically forever.Put it this way. I’ve only had to change the batteries in my first SideClick once and I bought it close to 4 years ago.Anyways, when I was looking for the Apple TV 4K SideClick I came across 3 of them...One was SC2-APG3K which says is only for the 2-3 Gen remotes (Silver) and not compatible with 4-5 Gen.The second was SC2-APG4K which says is only for the 4-5 Gen remotes and not compatible with the 2-3 Gen (Silver) remotes.The third was SC2-APH34K which says is for all remotes.In this confusion I ordered the first one, even though I have both remotes, hoping that like the other SideClick’s they would supply the extra attachment in the box as well. They do this with the Fire TV SideClick and Roku.Well I received it today and as I was hoping, they supplied both attachments in the box. As you can see in the pictures.So if anyone is confused like I was, fret not! It doesn’t matter which one you order because they’ll both be in the box!Thank you for that SideClick!!!! That makes things so much better!!!If I had one piece of advice. Take the other 2 (SC2-APG3K + SC2-APG4K) down and just keep up SC2-APG34K to keep people for getting confused. Also included in the item description that both attachments will be included.So all in all, definitely a must have with any streaming device! They become so handy and I need to have one on each of my streaming remotes.

Really frustrating to have 4 remotes and only need 1 button on each. This replaces the remote for my sound bar, cable tv box, and tv remote. Between this and the Apple TV remote, we are all set!Find that the plastic is light and feels a little cheap, but functionality is good so far.

Un excelente artículo que simplifica todo el arsenal de controles remoto. Su practicidad hace que guardes el resto de controles y lo mejor es que opera las barras de sonido

Gone are all of the remotes that cluttered my usage of Apple TV, external speakers, TV, and HDMI switch.The Sidekick is a genius idea that allows you to hook your device remote (in my case the Apple TV 4K) to it and use it as an all in one remote. It doesn't allow you to replace all functionality of each remote, but it allows you to replace the functionality that is used 99% of the time - turning the power on and off and adjusting the volume.Amazingly, it makes the small and slippery Apple TV remote easier to operate as well, which is an added and unexpected bonus! Highly recommended.

Nach dem ich einen Wutanfall nach dem anderen,wegen der blöden Apple TV Fernbedienung bekommen habe. (Wischtechnik) Bin ich auf diese Fernbedienung gestoßen. Sie ist ein echter Segen. Das Anlernen ist Super einfach und danach kann man diesen Apple TV endlich ordentlich bedienen. Einfach nur toll.

Sideclick verwandelt die Fernbedienung des Apple TV in eine Universalfernbedienung, die die wichtigsten Funktionen von Fernseher und Soundanlage steuert. Passt perfekt zur Originalfernbedienung und ist sehr einfach zu programmieren. Klare Kaufempfehlung.
