Review: Great simple remote for young & old - Perfect remote for seniors, especially those who have a hard time with all the tiny buttons on the regular TV remotes and/or memory issues. Would also be good for young children who tend to reprogram the remote eveytime by pushing random buttons. LOL! Easy to program and compatible with different TVs (we've used it on 2 different ones). Love it so much we have actually purchased 3. One broke after being dropped multiple times and one for a gift. The remote itself is a hard slippery plastic. I read another review about putting rubber "nubs" on the back. We did and the remote is much easier to hang on to and does slide of the table.
Review: works great for weak, arthritic hands plus easy setup - Love it when something works just like it is supposed to work!!! You do have to supply batteries, but it takes just 2 normal AAA batteries. I tried the first set of setup instructions and was beginning to lose hope that I'd have to try the 'learn mode' setup where it learns from your TV's remote, but I hung in there and just another about 25 more tries and VOILA it found my Samsung 2024 TV! I bought this remote for my mom because she has weak hands, essential tremors and poor eyesight. This is so easy for her to move up and down the channels! The light-up feature when powered on also helps her find the buttons, and when it lights up, this remote is brighter in person than I expected. There is even a lanyard so she can't lose it in bed if she puts it on her wrist. EASY PEASY!! LOVE THIS!! On a scale of one to five, this is an ELEVEN for elderly that have poor motion control and need simple.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this turn on cable box and t.v. at same time? my mother has a remote and she's always turning cable off but t.v. on so t.v. wouldn't come on she**
A: Hi Betti,
The EasyMote was designed to be as simplistic as possible so it is not possible for 1 button to do multiple commands.

However, you can program another button to act as the cable box on/off command. If your mother does not or rarely uses the 'Mute' button then you could teach the remote the command of turning the cable box on and off. This would be the only possible way of doing it for the time being.

We are currently in the process of designing a new remote to control both TV and Cable box at the same time but will have to be slightly more complicated.

If you have any questions at all then please do not hesitate in reaching out to us at 855-423-2181 or support@continu.us

Thanks again for the question and have a lovely day!

**Q: what size batteries and how many are needed?**
A: Hi there,

It takes AAA and you need 2 of them.
Thank you

**Q: What size batteries does this remote require?  And how many? (I'm amazed that I need to ask this; it's not listed in the product information section!)**
A: Just set up one today and it uses 2 AAA batteries, not included with the remote.  after about 20 button presses i hit the code to change channel, i pressed "mute" and it was all setup.  pretty easy on a Vizio TV.  I worry the backlight may  use  batteries  too fast but i see it can be disabled if it  does.  Time will tell.  Much easier remote without the 50 extra tiny buttons no one ever uses.

**Q: Will this work with stb's?**
A: For Dish and DirecTV, you can hide the unwanted channels, making it fast when you scroll up and down the list.  I don't remember how to hide channels on Dish, but on DirecTV, you create a Favorites list of the channels you want to see, and then you make your favorites list active.  Like magic, you have hidden all of the unwanted channels!  I did this a week ago at my mother-in-law's house.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with XBOX, DISH, & TV
*by T***N on January 17, 2019*

I was a bit hesitant to order this because I wasn't sure I could get it to work for all my devices. I do not have Infrared Remotes for the XBOX or for DISH Network Hopper and Super-Joey. My DISH remotes I use are UHF radio. However, I have an android phone that has an infrared sensor. I was able to download APPS that emulated the XBOX remote and emulated a DISH Network remote and I have an IR remote for my receiver volume. I could have emulated that remote too if I really needed to with an APP. I was able to program each button for each device I would like to control for each button. My video passes through the XBOX and from there to the TV and receiver. The setup works as such that when I turn it on the XBOX, it turns on both my TV and my Receiver all at once and likewise when I turn it off. I actually walk in my room and say "ALEXA, please turn on my XBOX" and it does. Work great for us, but just too complicated for Granny to wrap her mind around. For this easy remote I was able to set the ON/OFF Button for the XBOX from the APP on the android phone. It does great to turn it on, but on the actual XBOX remote it requires the user to hold on/off for 3 seconds before the XBOX will go off. This remote will not do that, but will pulse the signal instead over & over rapidly. No big deal. As long as it turns on, that's mostly what I care about so that our granny can get up in the morning and turn it on herself. As for off, we told her if she really does need to turn it off, to just walk over to the glowing light and push it. I think she's got it. As for Channel UP & DWN, we set that for the DISH Network. We also set a favorites menu in dish so that the number of channels is significantly less than 200+ channels. For volume, it controls the receiver. I am very happy with these simple remotes that un-complicate my complicated media setup in my living room.
