Apple TV remote stopped working

Please detail you audio system. Do you use the TV’s built-in speakers, or something else?

Does the remote have line-of-sight to the TV’s IR receptor? Unlike the navigation commands, volume control signals will often* be send via IR to the TV or receiver directly.

*some exceptions apply depending on audio system.

My Apple TV remote has stopped working this week … it has always controlled my tv and Apple TV perfectly. I have not changed anything, but maybe there was an update? Anyone know how to fix this?

It's likely that your remote needs a reset and then to be freshly paired to your ATV. Or it needs recharging :-).

Please refer to this article from Apple Support: If your Apple TV remote isn't working.
