Timeline (last 90 days)
Apple released a redesigned Siri Remote that supports the Find My network and has a built-in speaker.
The new Siri Remote can be purchased separately for $59.
The new Siri Remote is compatible with all older Apple TV models starting from the Apple TV HD.
The basic finding function of the old Siri Remote relies on the Bluetooth connection status between the remote and the Apple TV unit, and can only determine whether it is nearby when within pairing range and the unit is powered on, and cannot provide map location or tracking after disconnection.
The new Siri Remote's Find My positioning works better in densely populated areas because it relies on the Bluetooth signals of surrounding Apple devices.
If a speaker is added to the Siri Remote, it could emit a locating sound by leveraging the Find My network on iPhone or directly from the Apple TV unit itself.
