For some reason I don’t have enhanced dialog. Does it only work when you have HomePods?

[paulajbabington]

I updated all of my devices yesterday and have watching YouTube today for all of the new stuff.

[mtlcub]

I want the Snoopy screensavers :) hehehe

Anyone know how to bring back “Up Next” shortcut back ever since I updated to tvOS18 it’s disappeared from the top shelf shortcut bar above my Apple TV icon on Home Screen. Can still get them by jumping into the app, but I miss the shortcut along the Top Shelf working. Swapping to “what to watch” works fine, but changing back switches back to a dark grey gradient.

Brandon you’re pumping out the videos like a mad man. Mad, just mad.

[michaeltorrey]

I’m really glad they brought back the larger icons but since updating the top shelf up next information is gone. All there is showing is the Apple TV icon and gray screen. 😢. Can I go back to TV OS 17?

[GVVieira]

And something as simple as searching your purchased movies and TV shows still can't be done. It's been 5 years, think we can give up on Apple adding this simple feature 😢

[BiggMo]

Explain the apple TV subscription… do you have to pay monthly to use the device? Or is that only for the apple tv channel?

Brandon, thanks for the updates, BUT can you do a Video on how to use the Apple TV Watchlist and UpNext when you have other apps install like Hulu, Disney + etc. Where to you find the Upnext and Watchlist vs me having to jump in and out of installed apps. Thanks In Advance.

Now my audio isn’t synced when I watch movies in surround sound after upgrading to tvOS 18. Audio is a split second off. Audio is fine when switched to stereo. Any idea how to fix?

[byronhayes]

The option to hold down on a movie to get its info was already always there except for movies in your library. Getting the movie in your library is new and definitely needed.

[mjdauer]

I’m a Snoopy fanatic! When I saw your video i was so excited and immediately downloaded tvOS 18 but I can’t figure out how to make it my screensaver 😢 any advice?

[MrCrazyhackr]

How do you get the facetime app for apple tv ?

[Noise_Boys]

When is the video coming out for iPadOS?

[guilhermefernandes]

the 21:9 aspect ratio works for monitors?

[EpicCamraMan]

Just updated mine but don’t have the portrait feature or the FaceTime

[JohnChesmore]

Has anyone who updated to this beta have issues with Dolby Atmos playing on sound bar? I have a LG Dolby Atmos sound bar and ever since the update I have to disable DA in Apple TV settings to hear sound at all. It's on all apps including native Apple TV .

[Devo_gx]

Let us either admit the clock size or remove it from the Portraits section and it’ll be better IMO. Otherwise a decent update. :)

[ryansimms]

When are they going to add the feature that allows me to control the volume by just pressing and holding my volume on my phone remote

[Ehallog]

Are you going to make an iPadOS 18 video?
