Helpful answer

Yes, the Siri Remote can also be used for a MacBook, but not directly out of the box. However, there are a few ways to pair and use the Siri Remote with your MacBook:

Options:

SiriMote: This app allows you to use the Siri Remote as a kind of universal remote control for your Mac. You can use it to control various media players and even use the remote's touchpad as a mouse.
Remote Buddy: Similar to SiriMote, Remote Buddy also allows you to use the Siri Remote to control various Mac applications.
MacOS restrictions: By default, Siri Remote is not fully compatible with macOS. The apps mentioned above extend the functionality and enable more comprehensive use.

What you should keep in mind:

MacOS version: Make sure that your macOS fulfils the requirements for the respective app.
Bluetooth: Your MacBook must support Bluetooth 4.0 or later.
Pairing: The Siri Remote must be paired with your MacBook. The exact procedure may vary depending on the app.
