You've Been Using Apple TV WRONG! Best Features and Tips

Video Overview & Insights

Here are some tips and tricks about what the new Apple TV 4k can do and some hidden features to check out.

Why have these things got hidden features??
It’s not cute and endearing , it’s just pure arsholery.

Apple TV remote AirTag case - https://amzn.to/3ykYfHx

My favourite feature is using the IR blaster in the remote to control the soundbar/amp volume and turn it on and off. Much less flaky then HDMI-CEC control. You just have to press the power button (rather than mute button) on the soundbar remote when prompted to learn the mute button.

Are all these features available on the 2017 Apple tv 4k as well?, Also should I get the latest Apple TV 4k now or wait for the new one that supposedly coming out later this year?

Thank you for this video. Had no idea I could do Picture in Picture. Unfortunately it was very blurry. Any ideas why that might occur, please? Thank you.

Helpful video, thanks. 1 recommendation would be to title the sections in the video since some of us might know some of these already, that way we could skip to the sections of interest

Great vid! Any chance you know how to fill the screen when mirroring a video from Safari? I can’t find an answer anywhere. Huge black bars on all sides of my mirroring stream

Do you know what happened to the free blockbuster movie section that used to be in Apple TV+? Had so many great free movies and now they’re gone.

Don't cripple your sound quality with compressed Spotify...instead use a quality lossless source like Apple Music.

Hello, Is there any pinch to zoom kind of feature?

Great video! Also one thing I noticed is: In order for your Iphone remote to work and be located, your Apple TV has to be connected via WiFi as opposed to being connected by the data cable directly to the router. Unless I'm doing something completely wrong.

Excellent Tips!

@cmacmenow

I still can’t get my phone to control the tv volume 😣

@JuanGomez-jp2fo

Triple tapping for dimming doesn’t work for me

@Ancaja123

A bunch of excellent points really appreciate this video. I do travel a lot and I even found a little case that holds my Apple TV, the cords and the remote, all nice and snug zipped up

@RennK85

What home energy widget do you have In your phone?

@leech

I can’t believe that there exists a “fix” for people losing a remote in their sofa…

@jockneyranger

Imagine if Apple TV remotes suddenly have motion controls for playing games like the Wii.

@yonnanRedstone
@

What is the function in the thumbnail where you press the back button 5 times? It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the video.

@jazzfan7491

For the parental controls, if you have an Apple Watch you can also bypass on the watch.

@kielhawkins9529

that picture in picture should have subway surfers gameplay😭😭😭

I just put an orange silicone sleeve so it can stand out. Dark case for a remote is the worst idea. Bright and annoying so it’s easy to spot. I recommend getting one with a strap too.

You just blew my mind w the PIP

The google tv is perfect for travel
- Build in hdmi.
- power over usb C (can often be powered from usb on tv or from extra output from travel charger.
- light weight.. 120g with remote.
- cheap … the thing you have a chance to forget when travel is your mediaplayer hide behind hotel tv on the wall.

I think the apple tv is too heavy for travel and with both hdmi, power cable.
Apple tv itself is 500g with remote then add the power cable and hdmi on top.
They did improve on the apple tv for travel some time back i often had problems logging in to hotel wifi that required login from password from webpage. Vpn was also a great improvement. Still too heavy for travel

2:50 maybe if you weren’t trying to watch 2 things you wouldn’t miss what he said 😜 cool feature though

@YogiTheBearMan

You can use SIRI to get to the settings app faster. Just say settings after triggering Siri.

Was debating buying a new sound bar as my volume control would suddenly start and stop working. I thought my sound bar was too old (it’s 7 years old and perfectly fine for my needs). It was currently not working and randomly found and clicked on your video not even looking for a solution. But your remote reset tip immediately fixed the volume. You just saved me hundreds of dollars!

@radarrindell8715

The “what did he/she say” feature is so legit

@trevorschulze4010
@

I can use FINDMY with the remote.
Another important feature is pairing AirPods with its Spatial Audio. Haven’t figured out how to pair two at a time yet

@jack91522

Such a uesful tip.
1. fixed my Apple Remote with this technique.
2. Got the light sensitivity feature on now.

The word is PiCture with a C. Not Pitcher like in baseball.

This guys got it figured out! Great video, I was definitely expecting clickbait and this was the furthest thing from that. Actually cool and useful info!

@ricardoveras3433

The movie also answered him when he asked “what did he say” the movie: “I said stop!” 👌🏼

@ricardoveras3433

“What did he say?”
“I said STOP!”

Haha great choice of clip and timing

@JoshuaVarghese

Thanks for actually not clickbaiting. Good video. Leaned a lot.

I’ve lost count at the amount of times I have pressed back rather than pause on mine

I didn’t know, half of this stuff. 👍🏿

Yeah if you are currently subbed to streaming devices especially through Apple your VPN will not work & you have to wait & cancel subscription & then activate the subscription again with ya VPN on and change location & will work (that's what instructions it gave me no matter what I tried ) so now it's working but four months ago didn't wanna know, lols, crazy(makes no sense)

@GoogleEyes

By the way, you can find your Siri remote if it got lost in the living room by going to control center and tap the remote then tap the name of the remote at the top and you'll see an icon to find it. No need for an airtag or special rubber airtag case.

like for volume bug / remote reset tip!
