The iOS remote app is compatible with the ATV 4 in its latest version (4.2.3) - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/remote/id284417350?mt=8

Set up Remote for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Remote app is designed to provide simple navigation, text input, and control with Apple TV (4th generation) and tvOS 9.1 or later. Features such as Siri, volume control, or using the accelerometer or gyroscope for game play are only made possible with the Siri Remote or Apple TV Remote.* With some third-party apps, the keyboard in the Remote app might not be available.
