This is literally the video I wanted to see
Glad it helped!
Dammm, thanks man ahha
I wasnt understanding how that small black box is apple tv its too small screen
One of your best videos thus far, great explanations for those confused and there are many.
Thank you!! 🙏 🙏
Great video..question: if i have xbox is there any reason to buy apple tv for same tv setup?
So you have to buy the box and pay for subscriptions?
I have been using an appleTV HD for years and am looking at a new 4K TV. If I get one that includes the appleTV app do I need to get the appleTV 4K. Is there much of a difference between the box and app?
Ted Lasso is exactly what 2020 needed.
Couldn’t agree more!
Butt I'm In July 12 2021 So The Season 2 Of Ted Lasso Premiers July 23 2021
The "Apple TV" naming convention could be certainly confusing for many potential customers. Thank you for the video. Pressed the like button.
Do I have to have an Itunes acct to subscribe to the Apple TV Channels, Apps, Apple TV+, etc?
I have an older Apple TV box.
I don’t see Apple+ on it.
Do I need to stream Apple+ content from my laptop to the Apple TV box ?
Is the resolution on the apple app will be the same as the resolution that you your smart TV has? I have an LG 2020 model and I am not sure if you upgrade to the new 2021 Apple TV. Would like your feedback, thanks!
Would have been nice to visually see what he didn’t like about user experience between the actual TV and the TV app. I’m not sure about the real differences but I’m getting a TV this week with Apple TV app installed. I just don’t know enough about the apple TV advantages - would help to see that comparison in action.
You explained this so well!!! Thank you so much!!
I know this is an old video so sorry for the question. I currently have a Roku tv, if I plug in a apple tv “box” will it take over for the tv. Will I need to set the Roku to said hdmi that the apple “box” is plugged into and work that way? I really don’t want to buy a new tv just for the Apple TV “box”. As alway great content
Thank you so much for clarifying! Super helpful!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
I bought the Eufy Cam 2 pro cameras today. Set it up on Homekit and can access via my iPad, iPhone, and iMac but, for the life of me I can't get the video to stream to the Apple TV. The named cameras are there but all I get is the cameral icon with the slash across it, Driving me nuts, any suggestions?
If there is an Apple TV app pre installed on the TV, is it necessary to have a apple tv device? Same function?
How can I watch the new series Masters of the air?.
If I don't have any Apple product?
Loved every season of Mythic Quest so far. Brilliant writing for a tech company style workplace comedy
I can't seem to figure out how to view my Eve camera recordings on the Apple TV. I can look at the live feed but there doesn't seem to be a way to "get to the bottom of the screen" like on the iPhone or on my MAC.
Thanks for this one!
Does it stream any news?
So if I buy the Apple Tv, do I still have to buy + if I want to watch the shows on there?
Still confused how to view other streaming services through app on phone or Mac thanks.
How do I get my HomeKit to change the input, all it will do is turn on the tv and the Apple TV box, but can’t change input
I am trying to watch the new movie called "Spirited" on the Apple TV app but there is no place to rent it. Any suggestions on how to rent this movie?TY
10 seconds in, and I’m already liking the video. Although this is a one off question, so I’m not planning on subscribing, but you should know that as a newcomer, the presentation was awesome.
Well, thank you for the feedback!
Do I need to pay extra money if i already have a Netflix subscription which I want to use from apple TV app ??
Great video man! My favourites are most definitely the morning show and for all mankind, looking forward to season 2 of the latter in February!
What if I want to just use the Apple TV for streaming other services but don’t want to sub to apply tv+
Thanks for the video. Does the Apple TV box support the turning on of the TV through HomeKit? Or should I also purchase a HomeKit enabled TV?
Yes and no. If you enable HDMI-CEC on your Apple TV and your TV, then your tv will turn on/off when you wake/sleep your Apple TV. So, your tv won't show up in homekit obviously if it doesn't support HomeKit, but it can come on and off with Apple TV through that CEC feature.
Love me some Ted Lasso too man!! Good video, great info!!
Dickinson, The Morning Show, and Ted Lasso are my top shows so far. I think my number one would be Dickinson, it’s such a brilliant show!
I haven’t watched Dickinson yet. Might have to give that one a shot.
🤣🤣🤣 "have i lost you yet?"
Thanks Shane. This really helped.
Does AppleTV + have any live sports bundles?
Thank you, I’ve been going crazy trying to figure out how to mirror my iPhone to the Apple TV app on my tv which I’m sure I used to be able to do and think there was a sneaky update that changed it to Apple TV plus.
This video is gold
My favorite Apple TV + show is See... I just love it!
Great explanation about Apple services. I own iMac, iPad, and iPhones.. and Ring cameras. My frustration is that Apple and Ring don't get along without me using 3rd party.software. Any suggestions?
Where do I upload my cable info I’m not paying to use a app I already pay for with cable
Thank you! I couldn’t figure that crap out. I have a subscription to Apply TV but it keeps taking me to Amazon Prime (which I already have a subscription to). It is one big mess.
Thank you so much for the info. Getting a Apple TV 4K for Christmas! So this was perfecting timing 😁
Nice! You’ll love it!
ok. I am still confused. first question. if I have a 4k Roku streaming stick and I downloaded the Apple Tv app do I need a physical Apple Tv box to watch 4k Dolby vision content? if I understand you correctly people need Apple Tv physical box if they also want to be able to download other apps like HBO etc. with the app you only can rent or buy movies or subscribe to Apple Tv + and watch all the content, am I right or not? now the second question. in the Apple tv app when you want to rent or buy any movie or you are subscribed to Apple Tv + service under every movie info says that this movie or show you can watch in 4k Dolby vision or Dolby Atmos, the question is does Apple tv app support 4k Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, of course, I understand that you have to have 4k Tv and Dolby Atmos sound bar or home theater system
Hey, Shane. Have you seen the new Nanoleaf essentials? The bulbs are fairly cheap compared to the Phillips Hue bulbs. It seems as though the HomeKit and app support is still in its beginning stages but would you consider checking them out with regard to HomeKit? Are they worth it or should we stick with Hue bulbs?
Hey Michael. Yes, I am familiar with them. I used one in a brief Thread demo on my recent HomePod Mini Review video. I do plan to make more content around thread and these Nanoleaf essentials in the future.
Well, You talk about all the devices but I didn't see how to hook them up or use them
LOVED The Morning Show. Oh my gosh! Just an amazing show. Do you happen to know if there are going to be more seasons? I love my Apple TV. It’s great to watch everything: Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, news... I love it.
Yea, pretty sure they are doing at least another season of Morning Show. I think it got delayed because of Covid but it's supposed to happen still.
I wanted to see you work thru the live tv channels
If I have a smart tv and I can get these apps and watch directly from my tv, what is the need for the Apple TV box?
Great vid. Worth mentioning in Canada at least. You get a year subscription to Apple TV +. When you buy a phone or iPad.
hi shane what if I buy that apple tv box do i need to pay monthy to watch movies or free permanently? need subscriptions?
I absolutely LOVE Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet! Can’t wait for season 2!
Oh yea, how could I forget about Mythic Quest?! I agree, great show!!
Is Apple TV+ similar to Netflix...pay one monthly fee gives access to a library of movies, or is it similar to Amazon where you get to watch Apple content but have to pay for non Apple TV content? Thanks.
Thank you!
If I have the Apple TV App installed on my LG Smart TV, can I use it as HomeKit Hub or do I need to buy a different device?
No, a homekit hub must be an Apple TV (the physical box), any HomePod, or iPad.
I can use this on a roku tv or a regular tv?
The Apple TV app? You can use it on any device that it comes installed on (yes on Roku and certain smart TVs)
Hey Shane, does apple TV work on a Xiaomi TV? I recently got a homepod but couldn't get it to connect to my Xiaomi TV. Wanted to get an apple TV so I can use my home pod as speaker for TV. What do you think? Thanks!
Apple TV should work with any TV. It just used HDMI to connect to the tv.
I am currently watching See and it is really good
So I just sub to Peacock Tab and have a smart Samsung TV. I don’t have a Roku, FS or and Apple TV. But I do use iPhone and iPad! But my understanding is that Samsung does not support all models using Peacock. I can mirror the app and see it on the screen but when I hit plan, no video is cast only sound. I don’t know if you have any suggestions. I think I may have to invest into a roku, Or an Apple TV!
Ted Lasso is great, bingewatched it in one day
Can explain more how streaming through Apple TV is better then the app?
Defending Jacob amazing!!! i have one question if i have 2 homepods mini in my room just to buy an TV with airplay and homekit they works like stereo? or i need the apple tv the fisical?
You can set up two HomePod mini's to be a stereo pair. Then you can STREAM audio from a device that has AirPlay2 capability to the speakers. If your TV supports Airplay2, then you can stream the audio from the TV to the HomePod Mini's.
However, this will only give you 2-channel stereo sound. If you want to use surround sound, then you have to get an A/V receiver with at least 5.1 capabilities or higher (11.2 and up) and multiple speakers. As far as I know, you cannot use HomePod Mini's as surround sound speakers. The can only be used as a stereo pair. You can however put several HomePod Mini's throughout your house to have Whole House audio.
When using multiple audio channels in a Home Theater setup, the first number (5, 7, 9, 11, et cetera, is the number of speakers like center channel, right and left front channel, back surrounds, side surrounds, and height speakers. The second number (.1, .2), is the number of subwoofers that you have. Most systems that people have in their homes only have 1 subwoofer.
Good question. To answer, yes you would need an Apple TV box to output audio to homepods.
TVs with Airplay support allow for Airplay audio input, but not Airplay audio as output. Hope that makes sense.
Can you purchase and rent movies through the Apple TV app on your LG smart TV? Will my purchases from iTUnes show up there as well? Thanks for the informative video!
Hi George, yes you can purchase and rent movies though the Apple TV app. And yes you should be able to access your iTunes library there as well.
Morning show was amazing.
Hey I’m wondering can you watch local channels you know like live channels like cable has live football and li e sports and news
My absolute favorite was Saving Jacob. But much to my surprise, I enjoyed a The Morning Show, Home Before Dark, and Truth Be Told. I wasn’t expecting so many good shows!
Thank you for the recommendation On the Apple TV programs I did like The Morning Show and the other show that you recommended I’m starting to watch thank you
Thanks for watching!
I have the appletv app and subscription on my phone and iPad. How do I get the app on my non Apple TV?
You would need a smart tv with the Apple TV+ app
Ted Lasso , See and The Servant! 😁 Good Vid!
Thanks Jeremy! I’ll have to check out the Servant. Haven’t watched that one.
Ted Lasso, definitely. Thanks for the HomeKit 101 Series.
Been using apple products ever since I can remember talking Macintosh days, not sure what purpose the Apple TV device serves, seeing as most of those apps can be installed on smart tvs anyway. Genuinely asking but what would be the usage for Apple TV?
I have a question can I use my Apple tv divise that is in my living room on my smart tv in my bedroom or do I have to have an apple tv on each tv in my house?
Yes, you need one on each tv, plugged via HDMI.
Cool thanks Shane for your quick response and thank you for for shearing
Do I need an Apple TV box in order to use the Homepod Mini as stereo speakers, or can I use them as stereo speakers with a regular TV that is Apple Airplay?
You need an Apple TV to use them as tv speakers.
@@ShaneCreates I was afraid of that, thanks for the clarification.
Great comparison and explanation video! I love being able to listen to a show via AirPods instead of the bad TV speakers 🤣
Thanks Adam! That’s a great point. Another check for the Apple TV (box)! I also like using AirPods sometimes with the Apple TV when it’s super late or early and I don’t want to disturb the rest of the house.
Is this with any Apple TV device ? Any model? I’m still undecided between the HD and 4k?
Does apple tv run itunes, and will it access a network attached storage device and play audio playlists.
It doesn't run iTunes, but it runs Apple Music. But you can use "Home Sharing" to share media from a computer to your Apple TV. You can also access a NAS using certain apps like Plex, for example to access your media.
Very straight easy to under stand
Im going to definately install a home kit in my new house...im moving soon. All thanks to you though.
Shane ......Have you ever done a review on Phillip's mood lighting and strip lights .?
They can be hooked up to home kit, alexia, etc.....
Would be great to hear your view and explanation.
I've got a few 1st generation phillip mood lights with remotes... and hear it can be connected to home kit , if you buy certain gadgets .
The 2nd gen is now wifi , blue tooth connected. I'm particularly interested in the rechargable bloom shape light.
Have you tried any ?
I have a few Phillips hue lights. The homekit support will depend on which hub you have. I don't think the first generation hue bridge supports homekit anymore. So compatibility will depend on which hub you have.
And thanks for watching! Good luck with your new homekit setup!
@@ShaneCreates
Yep....gotcha , thanks for that info. Cheers .
So if you subscribe to AppleTV+ do u still need to pay to rent shows and movies?
How do I get all of my smart home items in to HomeKit? I have some that don’t have the HomeKit on the box.
If you have products that don't natively support homekit, but wish to integrate them, you need to look at homebridge or hoobs.
@@ShaneCreates is Hoobs as easy as it seems? I upgraded up doorbell and lock. What should be the next step or item to go for?
“Ted Lasso” yes!... “Defending Jacob” ..also “Trying” and “Central Park” !!.....are a lot of fun..
I have about three or four nest cameras it I need to figure out how to integrate with my new HomeKit set up I just received The HomePod mini and the 10.2 inch iPad
To integrate nest into homekit, you may want to look at the Starling Hub or Hoobs.
@@ShaneCreates thanks man
Ted Lasso and The Morning Show are my favorites, Defending Jacob was great too. Couldn’t really get into See. We’re going show this video to our aunt. She recently started staying with us and was confused as heck by all the Apple TV stuff
Haha understandable. It’s very confusing. Hope the video helps!
Great, informative video, thank you! (I wonder how many times you had to say, "Apple" though. 🤣😂)
This is literally the conversation I had at the Apple store yesterday 😵💫
Can I use my Apple TV box to be able to watch Apple TV and its apps on other TVs in our house? If so, how do I do it?
You can only use it on the tv it is connected to via HDMI.
I have an Apple Music subscription and can access music videos from the apple library. When I try to stream the videos to my av receiver or Apple TV (not the latest 4K version) both of which have airplay enabled, all I can get is an audio stream ... no video. Currently, I use an apple adapter and a LONG lead to hard wire from apple iPad Pro to my av receiver and I can get full audio and video. I have taken the anomaly up with apple on several occasions and they tell each time that I CAN stream audio and video via AirPlay (but it doesn’t work). I can AirPlay audio and video from iPad to av receiver when using RUclips, so what am I doing wrong (or is it a matter of using AirPlay2). Is airplay2 a software update?
So you are using Apple Music to play the videos, correct? I think it’s just related to Apple Music. The Apple Music app seems to Airplay only as audio, regardless if you are watching a video.
@@ShaneCreates that’s exactly it ... hopefully then, Apple will update its music app at some point to stream videos via airplay ...
Can I use the Apple TV app on my Samsung tv as a hub for HomeKit?
No. You have to have either a physical Apple TV device, an iPod (which has to stay plugged in and available at all times if you want to access your devices remotely), or a HomePod/HomePod Mini and you have to designate which one you have as a HomeKit enabled device. There is a lot of information on how to do this on Apple's web site or you can watch Shane's video on "HomeKit: Getting Started" which is also a great resource.
My iPad came with 12 months of Apple Tv+ so I installed the Apple TV app on my TS4k, but it isn't integrating Hulu, HBO Max, etc.
I have the AppleTV device connected to an older (not smart) TV. My main disappointment is that I thought by getting the AppleTV+ subscription, I would automatically receive the other “channels”- ie Satrz ,& Encore especially. But they are an additional 8-10 $/month! Also , the limited viewing choices. The good news I heard on your video, is that I can get airplay ( wireless streaming from & remote) from my iPhone - so that is what I will focus on! I hope I’m right !
See, the morning show, Ted lasso is good so far haven’t finished it yet and greyhound was great as well
Ted Lasso started slow but quickly became a favorite.
This guy though! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m an xfinity customer too and I like watching live sports, like watching shows on tv like on fox or cbs. In the xfinity cable guide , I can see everything that’s on and coming on. On appletv, can I watch any of my shows / live sports, etc. through that interface? If so, does having that cable box even matter? I’m in this weird situation where I want to use the appletv only (have not used it yet - needs to be set up) but I feel like I need the cable box too
Hey Tanner. There are a number of ways to get access to live tv on the Apple TV. Regarding xfinity, it will really just depend if they have an Apple TV app (not sure if they do).
I currently use Spectrum, and even used them for years back when I had a cable box. For a long time Spectrum didn't have an Apple TV app, but now they do. So I can now sign into the Spectrum app on the Apple TV and access all the live content in a similar interface as the cable box, with no need for a cable box anymore.
There are a number of providers for live tv that will work on the Apple TV. I tried out a number of them: Hulu live, DirectTV Stream, RUclips TV, Sling, etc. Interface and pricing may vary, but options are there.
@@ShaneCreates I appreciate the reply! I feel like I can make the appletv work and get used to it.
I’m all in on Ted Lasso. Tehran was good also.
If I want to watch through a steaming service like Philo, do I just need the Apple TV app. Do I need to subscribe to Apple TV+ to use that service, or is Apple TV+ a separate steaming service? This is all new to me. I'm going to try it out on my newer iMac.
Apple TV+ is a streaming service. You only need it if you want to access Apple exclusive content.
@@ShaneCreates Thank you. Now my friend is telling me about Amazon Firestick TV. I need to study on this to figure out what to do.
Love Ted Lasso, The Morning Show, and lots more on the AppleTV+ streaming service. However I am torn between the AppleTV app and the RUclipsTV app as I switch back and forth between the two.
im trying to use apple tv channel on my desktop but i cant does anyone know how?
Apple needs to invest in TV Channels as much as TV+. TV+ is just another Apple TV Channel showcasing the rest of them. I love using channels and wish Disney+, Discovery+ and Peacock were all integrated as channels too. Being able to download everything offline, getting Picture in Picture mode on tvOS, and just an overall better UI and menu system than separate apps all make Channels way better to use than any other video streaming app. They just need to get more channels on board.
I agree. I sometimes subscribe to apps like Starz, Epix, Showtime & Paramount+ through Amazon Prime Channels because I like the playback interface better on Prime Video, especially the X-Ray features. Some streaming service apps have horrible playback controls, but then I noticed that some shows like Star Trek: Strange New World's & Halo playbook in 4K HDR10+ & Dolby Vision on their native apps & only 1080p Full HD on Prime Video Channels. But on the Apple TV app they playback in the highest picture quality & I have a great playback interface. But on my Fire TV Stick 4K Max & Samsung Smart TV Apple makes it impossible to link the apps without an iOS device.🤷🏻♂️
Are there free channels
What content do I have access to with the Apple TV other than third-party streaming services I'm paying extra money for? Does Apple TV have its own free library of content like Netflix or Amazon Prime?
The Apple TV (the hardware box) is just a streaming device… similar to a Roku or Firestick. It does not include a library of content. Only apps that you can download, some with free content maybe, but it all depends on the apps and services you are subscribed to. Apple TV + (the subscription) is an content subscription, that includes all original content.
Thanks man, I asked like three friends should I get the Apple TV box and they were like they just used the app and I was like wtf. Needed this
😂 I feel your pain!
So can I link my subscriptions like Disney plus and HBO Max on the apple tv app on my LG smart tv?
You shouldn't have to link anything in the Apple TV app. It should consolidate content from other apps that you are signed into on the tv. Although, as mentioned, it doesn't work that great on my LG smart tv either.
@@ShaneCreates yes it doesn't recognize that I already have other subscriptions it only gives me the options to buy and rent stuff
Now what!!!!
