@NK527  That would depend on if the Apple TV remote has rhe codes for Sky Glass.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Re: Apple TV remote

Thank you, tried everything. It seems sky has locked the system so only there remote works on the TV.

This issue has been going since the gen 1 tv. I don't know if it's fixed in gen2 but it is an absolute pain that we have to endure this after so many complaints.  Sky glass support is clueless about it 

 

I have yet to read anyone with ATV who were able to make it work.

This is ridiculous that it hasn't been fixed in Gen 2 every basic Tv has this as a feature now I have to use my sky glass remote and my Apple TV remote when watching something on my Apple TV pain in the **bleep**!

Re: Apple TV remote

It's definitely an intentional block courtesy of Sky - think they know the Apple TV is a far more capable 'smart' device, so they intentionally make it frustrating to use via Glass.
