My power button on my Apple TV 4K is missing

I was going to turn my Apple TV on using the remote and the power button was gone. Is there a fix for this? I don’t know where the button itself went, so trying to replace it isn’t an option.

A few other users have reported a similar issue, e.g. here. The official remedy is to buy a replacement remote. Some users have created their own unofficial alternatives through home craftwork.


You can turn on or off the Apple TV box, without needing the power button.

  • On: Back or TV button.
  • Sleep/Standby: through Control Center or Settings.
