When Apple revamped the Siri Remote along with Apple TV in 2021, many people thought it odd the remote didn’t get Find My support. It is, after all, almost inevitable you’ll lose the sleek little device in the couch cushions.
Fortunately, Nomad just made it easier to find the remote — and to hold onto the slippery thing better when you do. The company’s new leather cover adds a touch of heft while also providing a space to insert an AirTag.
New Nomad Apple TV remote cover adds AirTag slot plus more heft and grip
Known for premium Apple accessories, Nomad just launched one that should make your life easier. The Nomad Leather Cover for Siri Remote is handsome as well as functional in two crucial ways.
First, the vegetable-tanned, Horween leather cover gives the new Apple TV Siri Remote a little more size and grip, making it easier to hold. And yet the case doesn’t ruin the remote’s slim profile. And the microfiber lining won’t scratch the device.

Second, the case adds a space on the back where you can slide in an AirTag. A little flap hides the circular tracking tag. So, when you inevitably misplace the Siri Remote, you can quickly find it again using the Find My app. Just take advantage of the Precision Find feature available with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 series.
You can get the Nomad Leather Cover for Siri Remote in Ashland Brown for $33.95 now, down from the regular $39.95.
Price: $33.95
