And don't forget that one can use a Bluetooth keyboard to control your Apple TV. This is especially useful if you need to type in your Apple ID and password or maybe a user name and password for another supported service such as Netflix or Youtube and also for typing in a search term in Youtube.
I have the Logitech K811 keyboard and have it paired with my iPhone and Apple TV so I can just switch to the Apple TV by pressing F2 if I want to control the Apple TV. I rarely use the Apple TV remote anymore since this feature was added.

Julie, in my opinion apple Tv is a lot easier to use netflix with than anything else. I would even go as far as not using Crhomecast, and just use airplay to stream music to your apple Tv from your phone. Netflix is a lot easier layout wise on the apple Tv. I use it almost daily and it's much easier than most things out there using the phone. The phone can be used as an apple Tv controller but it can be a pain to set up and it's almost just easier to use the Apple Tv controller itself. If you have any further questions don't hesitate to yell. Thanks and take care.

Is it just plane easier than Chromecast? Is Netflix easier or more accessible to use through the Apple TV ap? Thanks for any info!
