History

The development of tvOS began as Apple sought to create a more interactive and engaging experience for users of its Apple TV product. The first version of tvOS was introduced alongside the fourth-generation Apple TV, which featured a new Siri Remote and an App Store for downloading third-party applications.

Since its initial release, tvOS has undergone several updates, each bringing new features and improvements. Notable updates include the introduction of Dolby Atmos support, a redesigned home screen, and the addition of multi-user support.

Siri and Voice Control

The operating system includes support for Siri, allowing users to search for content, control playback, and interact with apps using voice commands. The Siri Remote includes a microphone for voice input.
