Broken Apple TV Remote

Recently I dropped my Apple TV 4th Gen remote in a glass of water…not on purpose I assure you!!


A friend has just upgraded to a newer ATV and has offered me their remote.


Can anyone tell me if I can pair a new remote originally from a different ATV with mine…and use it as a replacement? And if so…how!?

Yes, you can use a remote originally from a different device.

You may have to pair the replacement remote. If your Apple TV remote isn't working - Apple Support
