Apple TV offers one of the most polished streaming experiences available. With powerful hardware and a refined interface, it is an excellent platform for Viewer World. Here is how to get set up.

Compatible Apple TV Models

Viewer World works with Apple TV 4K (all generations) and Apple TV HD. These models support the App Store where you can download streaming player apps. Older Apple TV models (3rd generation and earlier) have limited app support.

Installing a Streaming App
