Take Control of Apple TV, 4th Edition

Learn Apple TV Basics

Now that you’ve completed the basic setup for your Apple TV hardware, it’s time to learn how to handle your Home screen, learn about built-in apps, how to install and delete apps, and Search with Siri.

Navigate the Home Screen

Apple would rather steer you toward the Apple TV app, but to access individual streaming services, view your photos, listen to music, or play games on the Apple TV, you have to go to the traditional Home screen, which you can reach in a couple of ways:

• Press the TV button on your remote while in the TV app

• Press and hold the Back or Menu button

Tip: Go to Settings > Remotes and Devices > TV Button to make the TV button open the Home Screen instead of the Apple TV App.
