Apple TV remote function for Apple TV

My iPhone sees my Apple TV’s, they are all on the same network and I can airplay from my iPhone without any issues. The problem is my remote all on my phone will not connect to the Apple TV’s even though it sees them. I have restarted all devices. And software is up to date it just keeps saying connecting and then stops
