    Apps [Free] Planet Mix - Merge and Conquer Apple Tv Game

    Hi, I'm JP, a passionate software developer. Inspired by the addictive charm of the popular Suika (watermelon) game, I decided to create something unique - but without the ads and in-app purchases that often interrupt gameplay. Introducing my latest development: a game for Apple TV, similar to...

    Do the Apple TV apps lack functionality?

    I'm tempted to buy an AppleTV to improve my set up. I currently have an LG C9 and the apps are _fine_ but a bit laggy / janky. I've read a lot of good things about how smooth the AppleTV is, however I've also read many complaints (on reddit) about a lot of the apps (e.g. Netflix, YouTube...

    Lyrics without Apple Music subscription?

    My preference is to keep using my own music library, forged over decades from recording off the radio and mix tapes with mates, ripping CDs, Napster, playlists, and increasingly-curmudgeonly ways... I have my reasons. Apple's ecosystem is certainly moving towards their subscription service. I...

    iPhone Is YouTube Premium worth it?

    Does anyone else here subscribe to YouTube Premium? Have you found it to be worth the cost? I primarily watch YouTube on my phone and my Apple TV. Because of that, I've never been able to block ads and I'm wondering if it might be worth subscribing for the ad-blocking feature and for the...

    Why does Apple TV play worse on MB15 and great on ipad

    I finally bought a MacBook 15 and ending up watching a couple movies I rented on Apple TV on my iPads Instead of MB. The MB visual is choppy while the audio goes on. I tried on chrome browser but my history doesn’t show up nor does the search for the movies I rented. Not one of my movies show up...

    Sonos Beam and Apple TV, yay or nay?

    I'm looking to add a sound bar for a projector and Apple TV HD setup. I don't want any wires running to the Beam so the idea of just using AirPlay to send the audio is appealing to me however I can't seem to find reliable information on how well this would work and what audio formats it would...

    TVOS and App updates is there an easy way to see a list of updates outside of TVOS?

    Hey all, hope the thread title isn't too confusing, or misleading. My question is, Like the mac, there are sites such as macupdate that show updated apps, to make it easier to see which apps have updates so you don't have to go and check each one. I know this carries over to iOS to a point on...

    Apple Fitness Airplay

    I know when streaming video and audio content from an iOS device to an Apple TV via AirPlay. Depend on the sources, it might be a local wifi tranmission of the content form the iOS device to the Apple TV (like local videos and photos on iPhone Photo app), or a direct streaming over the internet...

    Hey guys, I'm planning to upgrade my TV to: Samsung's QLED 4K Q65C and the aim is to have a Dolby Atmos sound via the old Apple TV 4K and Stereo Homepods. However, the TV itself is not supporting Dolby Atmos. Will that be a problem? Thanks in advance!

    Best Option for TV Speaker

    Now I have a better streaming device (the Apple TV box is a huge improvement on my old Amazon Fire Stick), I'm thinking its time for a sound upgrade. It seems there are two choices, a single Homepod or a couple of paired Homepod Minis. I was wondering if anyone has tried each of these...

    HomePod 1st Gen HomePod discontinued due to inherent design errors? Class action lawsuit anyone?

    This is my first post on Macrumors forums :-) I have a first generation HomePod. It was re-gifted to me by a friend who said that he liked his Sonos speakers better. I was thrilled as I used to be a diehard Apple fan boy who went to MacWorld conventions at Moscone Center, from 1992 until they...

    Hi. Apologies if this isn't the correct place to post this but I'm struggling to find a forum for Chronosync. I have a MacBook Pro M1 Max and a Synology NAS of which I'm very new to. I bought it as I intended to move my 'iTunes' Media to a NAS and stream it to my Apple TV using Plex, but I also...

    Can I replace the battery in a Siri Remote 1st gen?

    Is it possible to replace the battery without breaking anything? Or is it glued (?) shut forever? If so, how about recycling the battery? I've had this remote for almost six years, so no wonder the original battery is worse for wear by now. Still, the remote works fine.

    iOS 16.3 Broke Airplay

    Hi Guys, I updated my iPhone 14 Pro Max to 16.3 and now am unable to AirPlay to my Apple TV. The ATV is also on 16.3. I have reset network settings, even factory reset our router. Reset the ATV and still no AirPlay or screen share. I can only see an old Apple TV (that probably hasn’t been...

    Airpods (1st v) and Powerbeats won't connect to Apple TV same time

    I was hoping we could watch Apple TV shows using the version 1 Airpods and my Powerbeats. Airpods connected fine. But then my Powerbeats got a message that I can't get it to connect UNLESS I turn off the Airpods. Is this an Apple TV model-specific thing - or do I need two pairs of current...

    Trending Section Missing from Apple TV for Anyone Else?

    Just noticed on the Apple TV app on my iPhone that the “Trending” section that usually appears below the “What We’re Watching” section is missing. Is this the case for anyone else? I hope they didn’t pull it as it’s the only section I ever really look at.

    iOS Control Center Remote Volume Unreliable After 16.2

    My wife and I use the iOS and iPadOS Control Center remote to control our Apple TV. Since upgrading to iOS, iPadOS and tvOS to the latest version, volume control rarely works (the volume buttons usually only adjust the iPhone or iPad device volume). Has anyone else experienced this? Any fixes...
