Users can say, “Alexa, find my remote” or use the dedicated Remote Finder button in Fire TV app, and Alexa Voice Remote Pro’s built-in speaker will emit an audible ring to attract their attention.

The new voice remote also has two new customisable buttons that are aimed at making it easier for users to get access to their favourite content. Amazon said that users can personalise the remote by programming these buttons to create one-touch shortcuts to favorite apps, channels, and anything Alexa can do. The Alexa Voice Remote Pro also includes motion-activated backlit buttons that automatically illuminate when the remote is picked up in low-light settings.
