    You can adjust the speed of the scrolling but I suspect this is not what you are looking to do. I also find the remote a bit sensitive and have found 2 workarounds to this.

     

    My preferred workaround is to use the silver remote that came with the previous versions of the Apple TV, it does most of what is needed and the Siri remote can be kept handy for when it doesn't. (it is possible to use other third party remotes to do this).

     

    The other option is to get a case for the Siri remote, this seems to help by stopping actions triggered by the unintentional touch of the edge of the touch pad.
