Nov 11, 2019  While the Apple TV remote from the fourth gen (2015) onwards does use Bluetooth to control the Apple TV, it goes to standby after a relatively short time (it wakes up super quickly so you don't really notice it). That's why an app like the Lightblue Explorer might not be able to find it. Use Remote Control on your iPhone or iPad as a trackpad and keyboard to comfortably browse on the big screen TV. Using AirPlay Mirroring and an Apple TV, your Mac could be located anywhere in your home. Simply select your Apple TV from the list of available AirPlay devices and control your Mac from the comfort of your couch or bed. Download Smart Remote for Samsung TV for macOS 10.10 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. ‎Smart Remote lets you easily control your Samsung smart TV.
