Accessibility Remote Features Worth Knowing About

Beyond the TV's on-screen settings, many streaming device remotes include accessibility-focused features worth knowing about.

Voice control as an accessibility tool

Voice search and voice navigation, covered in our guide on setting up voice search, can reduce the need for precise button presses.

Button remapping

Some remotes allow shortcut buttons to be reassigned, which can simplify navigation for anyone who finds a full button layout overwhelming.

Phone-based alternatives

A phone remote app, covered in our guide on controlling a streaming device without a physical remote, can offer a larger, more customizable interface than a physical remote.
