Replacement remote for SKy Q that has a guide button ?
Hi,
I am looking for a replacement remote for sky Q that has a guide button. I have an elderley relative who cannot cope with tech. They absolutley hate the new sky q remote, they had just got used to the Virgin one, which does have a guide button.
I also hate the lack of functionality. Next time sky increase my package price I am going back to virgin.
Thank you

HI @Jon101
there is no remote for SKY Q that allows single button access to the TV Guide
There is an Accessibility remote (non bluetooth) that has bigger buttons & a couple of direct buttons for Subtitles & Audio description but the rest of the UI interface is the same

@Jon101 you can press the voice button and say TV guide and it will take you directly to the TV guide if thats any use to you ?
