When was the last time you charged your TV remote control?

I was just sitting here in front of my TV (ESPN), and all of a sudden I wondered when was the last time I charged my 4th generation TV remote control. The battery level is currently at 85%. Anyway, when was the last time "you" charged your TV remote?

I've had Apple TV since December and I haven't charged it since I first charged it. I do use my iPhone most of the time though.

I've never charged the Remote.
I always use the iPhone Remote App now that it works.
Good Luck

No clue. But it's been a while! Every month or so I think and we use it a fair amount!

Our Apple TV remotes are used daily and get charged maybe once every other month. The batteries last quite a while between charges.

I have had the 4th gen. Apple TV since December of 2015, and I can only remember charging the remote once. That's right, once. That's incredible. Sometimes I use the Remote app, but most of the time I use the remote. And it hasn't died yet
