    Memory footprint of new Catalina media apps?

    Anyone know the average memory footprint for the new Music, Podcasts, and TV apps? (I say 'average' because there's variability in the footprint over time. Upon first launch, it's always at a low amount, but that changes over time.)

    No Favoites or Watchlist Functionality in Apple TV app?

    I started using Apple's TV app on my Apple TV, and I can add movies and TV shows to "Up Next", but what if I want to save favorites for quick reference, or add them to a separate list to watch at a future date (not necessarily next)? Am I out of luck? The app seems fairly bare bones to me.

    Apps New TV App No Longer Shows Free Content

    Has anyone else noticed that the new TV app no longer prefers surfacing free content that you've already subscribed to? Previously, when browsing movies in the TV app it would only show me content from sources I subscribe to, HBO, HULU, Showtime, some TV channels, etc. This was true of the first...

    Apps TV app update is horrible for Movies in Library

    The picture says it all, now only half of the cover art for the movie poster shows in the (Apple) TV app whereas before it was shown the same as the (iTunes) Movies app. This is horrible! I surely hope they change it back. I've reverted to using the Movies app instead of the TV app for my...

    I've had this issue for a couple of months now. I'm trying to add the TV show Elementary back to the Up Next section of the TV app. I've already watched all the seasons available and am wanting to watch a season over again, but it won't update in Up Next with the next episode to watch from Hulu...

    Apple Sports

    I think Apple should start selling Sports as a service. They should start by acquiring DAZN. This would bolster their TV app and streaming services. For a good price people would jump in. Not only that but if they could score some exclusives than it would promote their platform even more...

    TVos/TVapp - integrate external library into Up Next?

    I'm trying to wrap my head around the newer 4/4K model, TV app, and Up Next feature. From those with experience in these things... Is there an app that would allow me to integrate, let's say a 'folder' of personal library shows from a networked drive, into the TV app Up Next? Or would the...

    Apple TV app availability

    Does anyone know if the Apple TV App will ever be available like... worldwide? Because where I am right now it doesn't seem to exist. I've searched the App Store on the Apple TV and iPhone and there's no sign of the TV app. I even changed my location to United States and still no TV App.

    Apple TV App: Edit/Force syncing

    I just picked up an Apple TV 4k (32gb) and started signing into services I pay for. The feature that really sold me was the Apple TV app that brings all of your content together into one place. I really like the idea, but I can't figure out how to get the Apple TV app caught up to where I am in...
