The aluminum remote that comes with the second-generation Apple TV has been praised for its sleek form and intentionally minimalist array of buttons, and while most of its functions are self-explanatory, there are a few tricks you should know if you want to get the most out of it.
For example, you can get to the main menu from anywhere just by holding down the “Menu” button.
If you’re playing music and would like to start a Genius playlist based on the song you’re listening to, hold down the select button.
When you’re watching video, you can tap the down button and then use the left or right buttons to skip through chapters.
