So I was searching for something on my Apple TV.. And I got a notification on my iPhone telling me to 3D Touch to use keyboard... So I 3-D touched it in a keyboard popped up on my iPhone to type on my Apple TV.

yes, its just like the remote that comes with the apple tv4.
No... I mean can you brows through media on the phone without even looking at the tv.

Using the old remote app with Apple TV 3&2 a was able to brows my Apple TV media directly on my phone without even looking at the tv... It was so much easer.

you download the beta from the apple developer webpage.

I'm sorry, i'm confused. When you say the beta, are you talking about the IOS 10 beta? because I have that... I just don't see a new remote app. Or is there a separate download for a remote beta?

Mine also popped up, I do have new remote app, but it doesn't work on my phone , because it says that Apple is not verified developer

Noticed there is a new option in Notification Settings for that pop up.

On a lock screen?

It should pop up even on the lock screen, yes (if that's what you meant.)

It's just like any notification. (See the screenshot I posted a few posts up) It's in the Notification Settings. "Apple TV Remote Keyboard".

Swell. I love this.
