It's become a known fact that the Siri Remote that comes with Apple TV is not user-friendly at all. Between the awkward shape, confusing design, and non-raised surface that makes it really annoying to use, it's a major pain. Even if you master the learning curve, you may long for actual buttons. If you're into shows like The Morning Show, Severance, and tons more, you might want to find an Apple TV remote alternative that doesn't make you want to cancel your subscription.

This raised-button remote does the trick by bringing incredible content and functionality together in one affordable package. Until July 21, you can get it on sale for $23.97 (reg. $29.95).

Thanks to its infrared (IR) technology, you can quickly sync the remote with your TV to manage power, volume, and mute functions. This thoughtful design provides a user-friendly alternative to the Siri Remote, enhancing your Apple TV experience.

While the IR technology requires a clear line of sight to the Apple TV, it offers a robust range of up to 12 meters. This Apple TV remote alternative is fully compatible with all Apple TV models, including the Apple TV 4K, and works with most TVs. Without needing voice commands, all the necessary buttons are conveniently located, making this remote an easy and reliable choice for your entertainment setup.

Take your Apple TV experience up a notch with the Function101 button remote for Apple TV and Apple TV 4K, now on sale for $23.97 until July 21 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
