New Features of Updated Apple TV
The updated Apple TV is making use of some of the features that many Apple users already love, like having Siri help find information for them. One of the best parts of the upgraded version is that the TV remote isn’t the only device that can connect wirelessly to the box.
Bring on the Bluetooth
Bluetooth users will be happy to hear that the new Apple TV supports Bluetooth so that they can connect new devices to it. For instance, when parents get tired of hearing the video game blasting, those Bluetooth headphones are going to come in pretty handy. On the other hand, when the parents aren’t home, why not connect a wireless speaker and turn the room into a virtual reality zone?
Night Mode
Speaking of volume, Night Mode is a new feature that is going to put an end to late night frustrations. When the rest of the house is trying to sleep, but you want to watch a movie, Night Mode lets you turn down the background noise so you can still hear what’s being said, but you aren’t overwhelming the house with the background sounds.
Accessibility
Apple TV takes accessibility to a whole other level with the ability to reduce motion, and add audio descriptions and bold text, as well as being able to increase the contrast. All of these features come together to make viewing easier for those who struggle with it.
Siri
As convenient as a remote control may be, the potential benefits of Siri are what will really set Apple TV apart from the competition. For now, you can do basic things with Siri, but Apple is constantly looking at ways to upgrade the software technology, now that the updated Apple TV has completely revamped hardware.
New Amazon 4K Fire TV
Amazon has made some major improvement to its Fire TV box, as well as the TV remote control that comes with it. With more storage space, less latency, better streaming, and Alexa, the new Amazon 4K Fire will turn your living room into a voice-controlled entertainment powerhouse.
Alexa
Amazon offered voice control with the original Fire TV, but Alexa wasn’t a part of the remote. Now, you can do interesting tasks like uploading music, but you can also expect much more in the future. Soon, Alexa will be able to reorder items from Amazon.com for you and perform things like simple searches for specific movies so that you literally don’t have to lift a finger to get the entertainment you want.
Better Technology
Naturally, a new system means better technology. That’s better technology to the tune of a 64-bit quad core processor that outputs 4K ultra HD video. You may have to upgrade your television and individual viewing items to 4K ultra HD, but that will be the standard in the future, and you’ll be one step ahead. You can also store more on your Fire TV with 8 gigabytes of internal storage and an option to add up to 120 more with an SD card.
You can expect faster playback, with a better viewing quality. Since the remote control has 20{8c8ae2a71b30a2d8c6f534038a85ab39be2a915945a2526b1de25039d71b9e11} less latency, you can also expect a more responsive controller. In short, everything is faster and clearer, and you can have more of it. Even Apple doesn’t offer some of the features found with the Fire, and you can upgrade your Fire Stick to get some of these new features as well.

Remote Control Theft Prevention Tips for Hotel Owners
Loss and theft of items such as slippers, towels, silverware, and electronic devices such as remote controls cause significant monetary losses and quite a bit of frustration for hotel owners each year.
According to the Los Angeles Times, theft from hotels is a common occurrence. Most guests don’t even consider taking things from their rooms to be wrong. A recent survey of hotel guests found that 61 percent of respondents swiped toiletries, 18 percent stole towels, 14 percent took ashtrays, and 2 percent swiped bathmats and bathrobes from their rooms.
Although it seems innocent, hotel thefts cost the industry more than $100 million per year.
While hotel owners may not be able to halt the theft of towels and toiletries, they can stop guests from stealing remote controls to hotel televisions. A simple method of securing hotel remotes is equipping them with security cables. Strong security cables such as the Anderic Universal Remote Security Cable can help hotel owners greatly reduce remote control thefts.
The great thing about universal remotes is that they work with a wide variety of televisions, making them ideal for use in hotels where there’s a need for interchangeability and replacement. The adaptability of Universal remotes also makes them a target for thieves. Security cables make thievery much more difficult.

Motion-Sensitive Apple TV Control Rumored To Be In Development
As usual, the latest Apple media event is drawing intense speculation concerning the tech giant’s latest offerings, including rumors of a revolutionary new remote control for the Apple TV.
Industry insiders say that the new remote for the Apple TV could include a motion-sensitive remote control that has a touchpad, a few buttons, and multi-axis sensors. The new remote is also said to include an integrated microphone, which will allow Apple TV users to access Siri, Apple’s personal assistant program.
Incorporation of touchpads into the Apple TV remote would make the device better suited for casual gaming purposes. The casual gaming market is huge, and providing users with an avenue to access their favorite games would give the Apple TV a significant advantage over competing products.
The incorporation of Siri into the Apple TV remote would make search and other functions much more convenient for Apple TV users, allowing them to verbally initiate searches instead of having to type in desired search items.
The Apple TV is a digital media player that gives users access to a variety of different sources of content. Users of Apple TV can use it to play movies and music from Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and a variety of other Internet sources.

Get in the Habit of Cleaning Remote Controls
During flu and cold season, one way everyone in the home gets sick is by touching the remote control. You cough or sneeze, and then cover your mouth with your hand while watching your favorite program. Then you touch the TV remote, without remembering to wash your hands, and now the germs are partying on the remote control. Next, your child picks up the remote to turn on a cartoon or movie, and rubs his or her eyes. Now, this little person is at risk of getting sick, too.
With cold and flu season just around the corner, it is important to get into the habit of cleaning remote controls on a weekly basis.
- Remove the batteries and replace the battery cover.
- Clean around the buttons with a cotton swab. Dip the swap in rubbing alcohol and gently clean the small cracks and crevices around the buttons and sides of the remote.
- Use a soft cloth to clean the rest of the remote. Lightly dampen the cloth in rubbing alcohol, wipe the remote control down, and allow it to air dry.
- Wipe the remote control and buttons with an antibacterial wipe. Allow them to air dry.
- Replace the batteries.
Never submerse a remote control in water, pour rubbing alcohol on it, or spray cleaning products directly onto it. The liquid can get inside the remote, and cause the device to short-circuit and stop working. For more serious problems, like sticky soft drink spills and non-working remotes, you will need to order a new remote control. You can obtain new TV and device remotes for all makes and models by contacting Replacement Remotes at -855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683).
Sony to Release Combination TV Remote Control and Speaker Device in Japan
The Japanese market is one full of unique and original entertainment devices and concepts. Among the latest is a combination TV remote control and speaker device developed by Sony. Sony intends to release the new product in late September 2015 in Japan for a price of $166 U.S. dollars. The device combines a remote speaker with a TV remote on top, along with a speaker volume control knob.
While the device might seem a bit too far-fetched, consider the benefits of the device. Users will be able to bring the sound from the TVs, to them, just about anywhere in their home. Instead of having to blast the TV volume, the speaker can be placed in front of the user on an end table or night stand. The device is perfect for smaller homes with children. People get to enjoy their favorite programs and not worry about waking up their kids.
For those who like preparing meals while watching cooking shows, there is no reason to move the TV into the kitchen. If all you need are the step-by-step instructions, you can bring the device into the kitchen to listen, and follow along to prepare the dish. Additionally, the device is perfect for people who like listening to the news and weather while they get ready for work, and who do not have time to sit in front of the TV.
While Sony does not currently have plans to release the device in the United States, you can still obtain Sony remote controls for your Sony devices directly from Replacement Remotes. Call 1-855-5-REMOTE (1-855-573-6683) now for further assistance.
