topic Larger Remote. in Sky Q

Larger Remote.

Negativepitch42 — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 09:31:01 GMT

We have SkyQ.

The buttons, and whole of the remote is too small for me to use, as I have arthritis in them.

Is there a larger remote, similar in size to the older Sky+ one?

If so, is it free from Sky, or do you have to purchase it?

We still have the old Sky+ remote, well a new one bought from Argos as the buttons on the original had started to go.

Can this be paired and used on the SkyQ box, obviously it wouldn't have voice control, or does a larger one only work from Sky if available.

Thanks for any replies.

Hi @Negativepitch42

Please see the Support for people with arthritis or other motor impairments below. The Sky Q Accessibility remote is very simular to the old Sky+HD remote. Note the old remote does not work with Sky Q.
