Accessibility Remote
Is there a remote for optic tv the is easy to ise for elderly, visually impaired and cognitively impaired people living in care facility that is easy to operate independently? The current remote is confusing and has too many options - everything starts on a silent Disney screen and the channel button doesn't get the user out - is there an easier interface to set and stay on power up? Is there a vol/channel/power remote that a partialy sighted cognitively impaired person who can not speak/read can use? Once they are on a channel they can swithc channels and use the volume and turn it off and on... Hoe can it be uncomplicated? Design for universal accessibility.

We've definitely passed this feedback along to our Optik team. An option would always be to try a bluetooth remote control that works for Android TV from Amazon or a similar seller.
- Is the UIW4001 Bluetooth controlable?
Frankly, if such a remote existed we would all want one. The remote available includes the same button(s) that do a different action depending on a quick press or press and hold.
But, this remote is also voice activated so that may be a solution.
