Thank you for the new AppleTVOS 18.2 update video! I always learn many new things by watching your videos. My favorite feature is the Snoopy screen savers! I have been using the Snoopy watch faces on my Apple Watch and seemingly never tire of it - for now! 😝 Keep up the good work! Much appreciated!
I updated and don’t have any of this stuff.. no snoopy, no dialog enhance, no swipe up screensaver select .. version info says tvOS 18.2 [22k155] December 11, 2024 at 3:34:28 pm

Yeah not available on Apple TV4K (version A1842) I think it’s only for the 4K versions that have the newer remote not the black glass remotes we got with 2017 TV
What about the video settings? Are there any changes needed for iOs 18.2 update? Currently I have a 77 inch Samsung with the following video settings on the most recent Apple TV 4K: Aspect Ratio Automatic 16,9, Format 4K SDR, HDMI Output YCbCr, Chroma 4:44, Match Content Range & Frame Rate, BOTH ON
Question for you... Just updated my two 4K devices (A16 and A18) to TVOS 18.2. Neither seem to have any of the features you discuss (Snoopy screensaver, aspect ratios, etc). After considering it for a while, I realized that both of the displays they are connected to are 10 years old or more. I am wondering if the features are dependent on the capability of the display. There doesn't seem to be anything published about it. Do you have the ability to find and confirm that answer?
I hope they can support crossfade on airplay. Lossless on their airpods is also not supported because we all know bluetooth is lossy. It seems like we're paying for the service and not getting it.
There was a bug connecting my new Apple TV 4K to my SONY STR-DH790 AV amp. I had submitted the bug to the Apple community a month ago, and Apple already corrected it perfectly with tvOS 18.2 Thanks Apple!😀
My apple tv 4K is 3 years old and after updating to TVos 18.2, I did not get Snoppy nor did I get the various aspect ratios for my Epson 40-50 projector. Very disappointing.
Updating now to check it all out. Does anyone know if the update allows us to turn Apple TV on and off through apple HomeKit automation. Using Siri I can have it turn my TV on and off to which the Apple TV will pause and play. This works great. But I can’t seem to do the same with HomeKit automation
I got two quick questions if anybody can help I’ve been thinking about getting an Apple TV for a min. now my questions is how many accounts can be on it at a time & can I use it to mirror my iPhone without the internet?
Wow ! Snoopy screensavers. Makes my experience better, just like 3D emojis. Just because some software engineer reporting to some manager who works for a Director needs to check a box for their annual bonus, doesn’t mean it’s useful. Just more clutter requiring a higher cpu or gpu to get you to buy the next upgrade in hardware…so you can watch a Snoopy screensaver Good Grief 😏
Looks like snoopy screensaver isn’t available in Canada… Nor is there Karaoke icon.. In shareplay you want a display of the Play Next queue and so requested it (so you can punch them out for putting a song you hate..)
Ted Lasso is super light good-feeling humor. Gets racy and characters are Excellent. Series came out during the Pandemic and saved people's lives and relationships by becoming excellent subjects of conversations with others.
Still hoping we get the ability to change the duration of regular photo slideshows (like you can with the Portraits option). 5 seconds is way too short.
@@billjohnsonseattle I have both. The Apple TV just looks better and has more cool features like seeing who’s at the door plus you can pair AirPods to it and listen without disturbing others in the house.
Can I hear with my air pods while my wife is hearing the speakers.... normally .... most tv's turn off the speakers if blue tooth is used, so we can't both hear the tv.
But when will it support Dolby TureHD? We want lossless Atmos, Apple can keep Snoopy and everything else from this update, all of it, give me lossless Atmos.
I don't think any of the new features are things I will use. I do use the music app and streaming services but that's about it. Sharing across devices, FaceTime, photo screen savers etc not so much.
Apple Fitness Plus sucks. Apple is more concerned about selling Apple Music than creating good fitness content. Even in the yoga classes, music is blasting and the instructors and never shut up. It's a shame as the tech, especially the integration with the Apple Watch, is amazing.
Hate the updates. Especially, the playground one... Gives everyone an over bite and expression like their high on drugs. I prefer using Microsoft copilet on my text feature and create realistic AI art. I was going upgrade to the iPhone 15 Pro Max because the 16 is identical but after seeing how bad that playground Apple Intelligence is, I'll keep my 13 Pro Max.
Absolutely recommend Ted Lasso. It’s surprisingly funny and entertaining. 😊
I'm impressed that Apple is still supporting my 2015 4th gen Apple TV with these updates!
I don’t use Apple fitness either
Give Ted a chance. So good. Starts as comedy. But it evolves.
Agreed, give Ted Lasso a chance. Awesome show!
First season is great! Second season is TERRIBLE! They COMPLETELY changed the show into some boring feminist slop that isn't even about Ted anymore.
You should watch Ted Lasso, it’s a fun, great humor series that you’ll like for sure. You will want more seasons once you start watching it.
The sing feature in Apple Music with doesn’t let you use your phone as a microphone - the mic icon is to adjust the original artist’s volume
Thank you for the new AppleTVOS 18.2 update video! I always learn many new things by watching your videos. My favorite feature is the Snoopy screen savers! I have been using the Snoopy watch faces on my Apple Watch and seemingly never tire of it - for now! 😝 Keep up the good work! Much appreciated!
Thanks for the vid. Ted Lasso is fantastic... and I do use Apple Fitness +. The HIIT classes with Bakari are tough as hell, but a great workout.
I'm in Canada using the 2021 Apple TV 4K and I have the new features including the Snoopy screensaver.
Also in Canada but my Apple TV 4K (1st generation) 2017 is not showing the Snoopy Screensaver 😭
I don’t see the “aspect ratio “ option on mine. I even restored it and it’s still not showing up. I have the second gen 4K Apple TV.
Love your videos. And yes, Ted Lasso is an amazing show. You won’t be disappointed.

I did as well, seems like the gen 1 apple tv4k. We were not given these options.
@@SuperPuzzle_this pisses me off, bc it’s listed and did get the update
Sorry to hear I’m going to check out my older Apple TV and possibly make a follow up video.
I stopped updating after 18.1.
I don’t have snoopy either. In Canada. ATV 4K

Even though the Gen 1 4K can get this latest update, it doesn't seem to get the Snoopy screensaver, unless I'm missing something.
1. Don’t use the fitness plus work out videos.
2. Ted lasso is worth watching. The first season is outstanding.
@@z9ski690 I stopped watching after the first season because it was so incredibly boring and any of the rare game scenes was absolutely bad 😂
Great video. Thanks. Is there a way to have screen time on Apple TV? Any third party that can do that maybe?
Yeah not available on Apple TV4K (version A1842) I think it’s only for the 4K versions that have the newer remote not the black glass remotes we got with 2017 TV
I use fitness plus all the time. Its great! The new layout and recommendations are more customized to use history
Yeah, the Snoopy animation is ALL I've been waiting for............................................
Thanks for the video! It was great!!🎉
What about the video settings? Are there any changes needed for iOs 18.2 update? Currently I have a 77 inch Samsung with the following video settings on the most recent Apple TV 4K: Aspect Ratio Automatic 16,9, Format 4K SDR, HDMI Output YCbCr, Chroma 4:44, Match Content Range & Frame Rate, BOTH ON
No, but there’s a Snoopy screensaver.
@@MondoMiami😂
I just love it on iOS 18.2 updates as of now for my 2 year's old iPhone 12 :)
Ted Lasso! You need to watch! ❤
Ted Lasso is one of the best shows I have ever watched.
Why the AirPlay symbol is not there and only way you can AirPlay with the mirror image can you have any suggestion?
ADD SAFARI, APPLE!
Way more important for me: it seems they finally fixed Airpods connectivity issues
Thanks people often forget tv updates
How do get rid of AirPlay screen on my Apple TV? Always enjoy you videos! Like this TV OS 18.2 new features.
Question for you... Just updated my two 4K devices (A16 and A18) to TVOS 18.2. Neither seem to have any of the features you discuss (Snoopy screensaver, aspect ratios, etc).

There doesn't seem to be anything published about it. Do you have the ability to find and confirm that answer?
Did they fix the audio codec glitch?
I have and Apple TV 4K with tvos 18.2 and snoopy savers doesn’t show for me.
Music app still missing a visualizer.
I hope they can support crossfade on airplay. Lossless on their airpods is also not supported because we all know bluetooth is lossy. It seems like we're paying for the service and not getting it.
Can you have the system alternate between snoopy and personal?
There was a bug connecting my new Apple TV 4K to my SONY STR-DH790 AV amp. I had submitted the bug to the Apple community a month ago, and Apple already corrected it perfectly with tvOS 18.2 Thanks Apple!😀
How is this any better than the streaming aps on my LG G2 97 OLED?
Looks like the new screensavers were not in the 18.2 release. I heard they were there in beta but pulled at last min. Hopefully we get them in 18.3
Amaaaaazing!
My apple tv 4K is 3 years old and after updating to TVos 18.2, I did not get Snoppy nor did I get the various aspect ratios for my Epson 40-50 projector. Very disappointing.
Ted Lasso was excellent
Please give it go 🎉
Thank you.
so annoying that portraits wp just doesn't work for me. It's stuck on indexing.
WHY WONT THEY ADD SAFARI INTO THE MIX??
How do you connect the microphone in your phone to use it for Karaoke?
Updating now to check it all out. Does anyone know if the update allows us to turn Apple TV on and off through apple HomeKit automation. Using Siri I can have it turn my TV on and off to which the Apple TV will pause and play. This works great. But I can’t seem to do the same with HomeKit automation
Should be able to download purchased movies for offline use. Would like 3d movies for third party vr devices.
Unfortunately, only for the latest Apple TV, I have the 4, no dice. No Snoopy, no enhanced anything... :(
Important information. Thank you. I would like you to advise us why updates for free games such as.. modern combat 5...
I got two quick questions if anybody can help I’ve been thinking about getting an Apple TV for a min. now my questions is how many accounts can be on it at a time & can I use it to mirror my iPhone without the internet?
I wish they would bring the music visualizer back more than anything.
Question re screensavers. when choosing an album mine are NOT in alphabetical order. Any idea how to sort? Thanks
Ted laso totally recommended
Are you kidding me, is this a joke, a screensaver is a feature? The emperor has no clothes.
Ted Lasso is fun and different, with a lot of humor. American Football coach trying out as a Soccer coach.....
Wow !
Snoopy screensavers.
Makes my experience better, just like 3D emojis.
Just because some software engineer reporting to some manager who works for a Director needs to check a box for their annual bonus, doesn’t mean it’s useful.
Just more clutter requiring a higher cpu or gpu to get you to buy the next upgrade in hardware…so you can watch a Snoopy screensaver
Good Grief 😏
Ted Lasso is very good.
Looks like snoopy screensaver isn’t available in Canada…
Nor is there Karaoke icon..

Was this comment written by a human or chatGPT? 😂
I just want a bluetooth options shortcut 😥
Still hoping we get the ability to change the duration of regular photo slideshows (like you can with the Portraits option). 5 seconds is way too short.
i need them to fix apple music. it is trash on apple tv.
Does anyone have both a Roku & Apple TV ? If so, which is better, and why?
@@billjohnsonseattle I have both. The Apple TV just looks better and has more cool features like seeing who’s at the door plus you can pair AirPods to it and listen without disturbing others in the house.
@@billjohnsonseattle Roku all the way. Much less expensive too.
snoopy should land on mac
YOU WILL ENJOY TED LASSO! Give it 3 episodes..
Tolerable, somewhat amusing for the first season, but quickly fell off a cliff. Characters have really limited depth compared to say an HBO comedy.
Bro! You have to watch Ted Lasso. It’s a funny show that continues to bring you in during each episode
It‘s boring af. And I love boring. But Ted Lasso is beyond boring.
im use apple fitness+
I am waiting the aspect ratio feature to test it with my ultra wide monitor
I don’t think you can sing into the iPhone as a mic.
But HomePod did not get any update and Siri on HomePod still goofy!
Can I hear with my air pods while my wife is hearing the speakers.... normally .... most tv's turn off the speakers if blue tooth is used, so we can't both hear the tv.
You have seriously been waiting for the Snoopy screen saver??
Hey! unable to see the new Snoopy screensaver and I have done the
18.2 update
watch Ted n you cant stop watching..
Also no snoopy
Surely you haven’t really been waiting for a Snoopy screen saver please tell me you are not serious.
we can use iPhone as karaoke microphone and hear voice from tv speaker now?
But when will it support Dolby TureHD? We want lossless Atmos, Apple can keep Snoopy and everything else from this update, all of it, give me lossless Atmos.
Ted Lasso is a great show
I don't think any of the new features are things I will use. I do use the music app and streaming services but that's about it.

Apple Fitness Plus sucks. Apple is more concerned about selling Apple Music than creating good fitness content. Even in the yoga classes, music is blasting and the instructors and never shut up. It's a shame as the tech, especially the integration with the Apple Watch, is amazing.
I find the instructors to be insufferable.
Snoopy? So what!
Nothing exciting as always
Hate the updates. Especially, the playground one... Gives everyone an over bite and expression like their high on drugs. I prefer using Microsoft copilet on my text feature and create realistic AI art. I was going upgrade to the iPhone 15 Pro Max because the 16 is identical but after seeing how bad that playground Apple Intelligence is, I'll keep my 13 Pro Max.
