ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

ITunes Remote

Okay, so you know how when you listen to music on your iPad, iPhone or computer, you have to use your fingers to press buttons on the screen to play or pause the music, change the volume or switch to another song? Well, what if you could control your music without even touching your device, almost like magic?

That's where the iTunes Remote comes in! It's an app that you download on your iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch that lets you control the music on your computer or Apple TV from a distance. This means you can change songs, adjust the volume or create playlists without ever touching your computer or Apple TV.

You install the iTunes Remote app on your phone or watch, and you connect it to your computer or Apple TV using Wi-Fi. Once connected, you can access your music library from your device, and use the app to play music without being in the same room as your computer or television.

The app also lets you browse your music library and search for specific songs or albums. And if you have multiple speakers connected to your computer or Apple TV, you can use the iTunes Remote to choose which ones the music will play on.

Overall, the iTunes Remote lets you control your music from afar, so you can relax on the couch, dance around the room, or even host a party without having to physically go to your computer or Apple TV every time you want to change the song. Cool, huh?
