I generally want any member of the viewing party to be able to hit the pause button when they want to say something or step away for a moment. I also like being able to instantly hit a button in the dark purely with muscle memory. A TV remote on the coffee table really can’t be beat.

The iOS TV remote makes it easier for people to share control of the TV, not harder.
How can I give guests control of my TV via their phones? As far as I know, that can’t be done automatically with iPhones, let alone people who don’t have iPhones.
They launch the Remote app on their phone, select the TV from the local network (if you don't banish them to a guest network), and pair with the code, same as you adding your phone.
