It WAS called Uverse Easy Remote app available on iTunes for iPhones and iPads but apparently it is no longer available.
The current app does offer a remote control but it is not a voice activated remote.

I think it’s wonderful that you’re trying to help your father. I was in a similar situation with my grandma, that’s why we stayed with Comcast longer than we should have.
The only U-Verse remote that is voice activated is the app, but you need wi-if. I ended up finding a universal voice activated remote. It was through a lot of trial and error, everyone is different, but eventually we found one. Depending on degree of visual impairment, maybe a universal big button remote would work.
