And if it helps you can control it with HDMI CEC, so they can use their normal TV remote to control it. All you do is show them how to switch the input and they are ready to go.

Its the easiest two app in the world to navigate - most old people have smartphones now as well

That's a massive assumption to make.

This aswell. Just tap the cast button in the app. Easiest imo.

Chromecast should work like a dream. Yip.

Any really simple device for elderly non-tech people to stream both Netflix and Showmax? Just plug, play, click with the emphasis on simple to include both Netflix and Showmax.. Any suitable device which matches all these requirements?

Samsung or LG TV..

I've just installed Netflix and Showmax on the Apple TV 4k (lightning fried the old one). No issues thus far.

Side note: Streaming the DSTV now app to the Apple TV also works via AirPlay without any issues.

Setup was child's play.
