Genius Sky trick changes arguments over who gets the remote FOREVER

A TIKTOKER has revealed a clever trick that allows you to use TWO Sky TV remotes at the same time.

It’s sure to end the age old argument over who gets the prized remote.

But it could equally cause a new row, as living rooms descend into a button-bashing battle of the remotes.

“I also thought you could only have one remote working your Sky box at any one time but you can have more than that,” TikTok user wadesramsey told his 16,000 followers.

A follower chipped in the comments: “Having two remotes will cause arguments between me and the wife.

“I’m in!”

So how does the hack work?

Well, if you have one of the touch controls with voice, you need to keep that set to Bluetooth – otherwise the voice feature will no longer work.


With the other controller, you’ll need to turn it to traditional infrared.

In the demonstration, an original Sky Q remote is used.

It’s easily done by pointing it at your Sky box and pressing the 4 and 6 buttons down.

The remote should blink twice to confirm it’s all set up.

“So now you’ve got two remotes to work one Sky box,” he said.

Why not give it a go and see whether it helps remote wars or makes them worse.

Will it spare arguments… or create more?
