Regain control of your viewing experience with the easy-to-use Flipper TV remote.

The Flipper is a universal remote designed specifically for older adults. It includes simplified, easy-to-use tactile buttons with contrasting colors. Once configured, this remote allows only the most common functions: turning on/off, changing channels, and adjusting the volume.

A sliding panel hides all the buttons required for setting up the remote. Once the Flipper has been set up has been done and favorite channels have been selected (optional), there will be no need to access them again. Easily lock the settings in place after completing the setup to prevent accidental reprogramming.

The Flipper combines all of your current remotes into one, eliminating the need for multiple remotes for your TV, cable, satellite, or DTV box. The Flipper Simple Universal TV Remote works with any device equipped with infrared technology.

Flipper TV remote

Quite easy to program by following the instructions. Very easy to use for someone with cognitive difficulties. Doesn't always work well, however: turns on TV but not always terminal. The white color of the remote control can be confusing, since remote controls are usually black. I finally had to put it aside.

Tv remote

Non Functional for the System my Mother has in her residence (internet). It's a shame because we really liked this tv remote. It's very difficult for my mother to adapt to her new cable provider and not having the Flipper anymore. It's really not easy.

Excellent tv remote

Excellent tv remote control when using a basic cable package. However, it does not work with packages that are linked to the Internet.
