This will allow you to continue to watch a TV or movie in the corner of the screen whilst you are navigating the menu on your Apple TV. This feature has been available on the iPad since the release of iOS 9.
Enhanced User Experience
The new Apple tvOS 13 also brings a range of other new features to the Apple TV, enhancing the overall user experience. One of the notable additions is the multi-user support, which allows different family members to have their own personalized recommendations and watchlists. This feature ensures that everyone in the household can enjoy a tailored viewing experience without interfering with each other’s preferences.
Another significant update is the redesigned home screen, which now includes full-screen previews of TV shows and movies. This makes it easier for users to discover new content and decide what to watch next. The new Control Center, accessible from the side of the screen, provides quick access to key features such as sleep mode, audio routing, and search.
Gaming and Audio Improvements
Apple tvOS 13 also introduces support for Apple Arcade, Apple’s new gaming subscription service. With Apple Arcade, users can access a wide variety of games that can be played across Apple devices, including the Apple TV. This integration transforms the Apple TV into a versatile gaming console, offering a seamless gaming experience with high-quality graphics and gameplay.
In addition to gaming, the new tvOS update enhances audio capabilities with support for Dolby Atmos. This immersive audio technology delivers a more dynamic and three-dimensional sound experience, making movies and TV shows more engaging. Users with compatible sound systems will notice a significant improvement in audio quality.
Furthermore, Apple has improved the integration with other Apple devices. For instance, users can now use their iPhone or iPad as a remote control for the Apple TV, making it easier to navigate and control playback. The new tvOS also supports AirPlay 2, allowing users to stream content from their Apple devices to the Apple TV with minimal latency.
The software is expected to be released later this year, probably some time in September along with iOS 13. This release will coincide with the launch of new Apple hardware, providing users with a comprehensive update to their Apple ecosystem.
