Speaker Remote

Speaker Remote lets you control your speakers directly from your Apple TV using the Siri Remote. The app communicates over your local network: no setup required.

Requirements

Apple TV running tvOS 17.0 or later
UPnP-compatible speakers on the same local Wi-Fi network
No account or cloud connection needed

Getting Started

Make sure your Apple TV and speakers are on the same Wi-Fi network.
Open Speaker Remote on your Apple TV.
The app will automatically discover your speakers.
Select a speaker to view now-playing info and control playback.

Troubleshooting

No speakers found

Verify your Apple TV and speakers are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
When prompted, allow the app to access your local network.
Restart the app and wait a few seconds for discovery to complete.
Restart your speaker if it still doesn't appear.

Playback controls not responding

Make sure the speaker is powered on and reachable on the network.
Try selecting the speaker again from the speaker list.
Check that another app or controller hasn't taken exclusive control.

Volume not changing

Use the Siri Remote to adjust volume within the app.
Confirm the speaker isn't muted — the app shows a mute indicator when active.

Album art not loading

Album art availability depends on the music service. Some sources don't provide artwork.
Verify your Apple TV has a working network connection.

Privacy

Speaker Remote communicates exclusively over your local network. The app does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. No analytics, no accounts, no cloud services. Read the full privacy policy.
