My Apple TV 4K remote won’t charge.

There are no indicators on the remote to show it is charging. You will need to read the charge level on the Apple TV: Settings﹥Remotes and Devices﹥Remote﹥.


Charge your Siri Remote or Apple TV Remote - Apple Support

The Siri Remote takes about two and a half hours to fully charge.


If your Apple TV remote isn’t working - Apple Support

If the battery level might be empty, charge the Siri Remote for 30 minutes to give it enough charge to function of a while.


Use the supplied Lightning-to-USB cable or another certified MFi Lightning-to-USB cable. Inferior cables can cause damage of their own, e.g. from overcharging.
