Apple has launched its newest Siri Remote alongside the new Apple TV 4K. The launch brings a remote that looks nearly identical to its predecessor, but with a meaningful addition: it now supports the Find My app and Precision Finding.
The update means that if you misplace the remote, you can use an iPhone to locate it easily. The remote also includes a speaker that can play a sound to help you find it. Apple notes that Precision Finding requires an iPhone Duo, iPhone Air, iPhone 17, or iPhone 17 Pro.
The fourth-generation Siri Remote is compatible with the following Apple TV devices: Apple TV 4K (4th generation), Apple TV 4K (3rd generation), Apple TV 4K (2nd generation), Apple TV 4K (1st generation), and Apple TV HD. The remote can also connect to a Mac, though with limited functionality unless additional software is installed.
Apple updated the Apple TV 4K on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, and released the new remote at the same time. For buyers deciding whether the remote is worth the $59 price, the compatibility list and the Find My support are the main points to consider.
