Family TV, with family holding the remote
Family TV is a TV box for older adults who find remotes difficult: relatives can send YouTube videos from their phones, and the TV is meant to start on a familiar channel.

- Worth noticing
- The page separates three capabilities marked “Works today” from family photos, videos, and voice control marked “Coming soon.”
Field notes
The setup instructions describe a TV with HDMI, home Wi-Fi, and a phone scan, followed by a send-from-phone workflow for relatives. The page labels automatic startup, YouTube playback, and remote video changes as working today, while photos, family clips, and voice control remain future items. Its demo uses named family roles and sample content, but explicitly says it does not send anything to a real TV.
