My kids lost my Apple TV Remote, how can I get the remote app to work if I can't turn on the appleTV Box?

My kids lost my appleTV remote, I downloaded the remote app, but it won't work, it tells me to turn on home sharing in my Apple TV box, how can I access my Apple TV to change settings without a remote?

You can't. Home sharing would need to be enabled and network configured in order for the remote app to work, you will need to purchase a new remote.
