    The "miss" with the apple account set up thing is that there isn't a way to map the Apple TV accounts with the individual app accounts (like Netflix, Amazon, RUclips, etc). It would be nice if by connecting to my Apple TV account, somehow that info could be passed to those apps so when I launch them they would know who is logged in.

      @jessemorales146 3 года назад +1

      The Apple TV is way better. But if you’re already in the Alexa ecosystem, the fire tv can be very convenient. However, if you have an iPhone and Apple Watch, I would say it’s still worth getting the Apple TV. I’m still in the Alexa ecosystem in my home (echos everywhere, ring, Kasa smart products, Phillips hue lights) and I do not miss my old fire tv. The $200 price for the Apple TV is worth every penny.

    I just start to used after a used fire tv for long honest my experience is amazing how fast is logging and define the pictured is amazing because I’m a Apple ecosystem everything is connect but one thing I wish Apple add on the future is the availability to see you text and call when you watch tv on one corner no full screen that way you pause what you watching and answer o not and read text that way you don’t have to stop and to pick up phone and give the available to disable is you don’t wanted

      I like that idea Oscar. That would be a great feature and I can see them figuring out how to do it.

    What if my tv doesn’t support hdmi 2.1. Should I still use a 2.1 hdmi for my 2021 4K Apple TV?

      Might not be worth the cost of the cable with it being a newer standard. Personally I would buy an Amazon basics 2.0. When you get a tv with 2.1, cable cost will go down and you can move the current tv with the 2.0 cable.
