New Apple TV incompatible with Apple's own Remote app for iOS and watchOS
The reason is obvious,why soft keyboards, BT keyboards and other non-Apple approved input devices are not supported on the 4th gen Apple TV:
Apple does NOT want us to cannibalize their other products.
For the exact same reasons, you will not find e.g. Safari, Chrome, Firefox - or apps like Office 365 - in the appstore for Apple TV.
Apple is simply not allowing us to run the same apps on the Apple TV as we can on our iPad or iPhone, as some of us then would buy and use the Apple TV rather than upgrading to a new iPad or iMac.
Apple nowadays have too many productlines, competing against eachother.
The lack of input devices and the lack of apps for producing data rather than consuming data is intentionalky, NOT a mistake.
Apple should listen to us, their customers, we want to decide ourselves what to do with our Apple products.
