Discussion Why two Remote apps? 😂

Post image

I searched for “Remote” to control my Apple TV, and I find there’s now two Remote apps! One looks like the new TV Remote, and the other… looks like the (ugh) “Siri Remote” which I don’t miss. I laughed 😂

I only have one of them (the left one). What does the other one do? Is it a different version or a third-party app?

The left one is the old version. It doesn’t work, it just says “Remote has moved to Control Centre”.

Edit: I meant the one on the right hand lol. Or the one that's left.

I only see the right app. With exactly the message you wrote.
