So the Apple Remote app is dead in 15, and I'm supposed to use the Control Panel craplet, and it's not allowing the same control that the app allowed. Specifically, in the app, there was the 'button' in the middle of the bottom of the app. It pulled up the screen on the ATV to show running apps, so they can be quit. Where is that feature in the Control Panel app? Apple loves moving the cheese and then when i (we) get used to it, then they move it again. ARGGG...

I got one of the new new remotes, and will see how that works. Hope springs eternal...
 
Double tap this button like you would do on the remote:

Okay. And they moved it because they could. I am seeing where my MIL got so frustrated with updates. I could laugh... But the weird thing is the Apple Remote app is still there, but says to use the control panel craplet instead. If they are going to kill it, KILL IT! Don't leave an annoying stub in its place. Well, or maybe do, but... Whatever... It's been raining for three days straight. I'm getting a little soggy! (The opposite of 'crispy')

What do those "CH" buttons do? I'm assuming it stands for Channel. But I think in my setup, it's useless. I watch everything through my Apple TV. Do I just have to ignore them?

My issue was nothing worked. Nothing let me pull up the multiple apps I have running, and allowed me to swipe up and quit them. *shrug*
