Apple tvOS 18 - New Features & Changes!

what's up guys in today's video we're talking about everything new coming to Apple TV OS 18 because at the time Mak video the developer beta is released and we have it installed right here on our Apple TV so the compatibility list so long as you have an Apple TV that's 2015 or newer you're good as all these models you see here on the screen is all fully compatible to receive the firmware update of the newest and latest generation of Apple TB OS 18 so if you compare it against Apple TB OS 17 the list hasn't changed which is quite awesome so the First new change can be located in the music app I know Apple was fiddling with this not too long ago like an iOS A7 beta then they removed it the shareed playability is now back so if we play a song like like 2010s hip hop Essentials let me play this because underneath the karaoke captions right here this little icon the same icon that you'll see on Apple carplay you find a QR code which will allow users guests in the same household to be able to scan this QR code and simply become the DJ for the party and from my understanding this also supports multiple devices to be connected at once so everybody can continue adding songs to the upcoming next track list which is quite awesome and no they do not need to have a apple music subscription to utilize this Apple TV unit is the only one that needs to have an active Apple music subscription so all your friends and family they don't have have to have one to really utilize this ability which I think is quite awesome now another place you can find a new Improvement is in the photo application the photo app got a new overhaul where it's actual proper music library now where synchronized was your iCloud you can search from album your shared album with other people in their family and by selecting one will give you ability to basically start a side show but that's basically it but these photos that you see here correlate with the newly added screen saver you see by launching the screen saver you now have a new slide up ability where you can quickly change screen savers on the go by simply just sliding up on the remote and you have access to the previous screen savers you see in the past photos and Sideshow but the new one is portraits which use like the portraits depth effect to add the numbers in the back to make it dramatic and cinematic uh right now it's still bugging on my end so I'm not I'm unable to show you my personal portrait shot to make this work but I do like the fact that you could find more settings to customize it in the settings section and just going into screen savers and in the portraits you can either decide if you like to show only people pets nature and cities you can actually filter it which is quite awesome I love my dogs so I just have it showing dogs when it works of course and of course you can change the duration like every other screen saver we had in the past now there is a new Snoopy animation as well new Snoopy screen saver but that's timing the video on developer beta 1 is not yet available maybe the upcoming beta updates we'll see it but it will definitely be available upon release sometime during the fall now other new changes can be located in the Siri as Siri is now on demand which means it's installed on the Apple TV unit itself so Siri doesn't have to go through the internet and depending on your connectivity it doesn't have to load and will be more responsive than ever before now in watching movies like from Apple TV and we start Ted lzo I personally don't watch Ted lzo I just know this is one of the promos that Apple constantly promote on Apple TV plus let me know in the comments if this is a good series or not I actually give it a chance but if you look here there's now this new tool and this is basically your dialogue enhancer as you can boost the enhancement in the dialogues if you look back here you can also reduce the background sound as well now this isn't any anything new I've seen this in the past done on other third party like sound bars like the Sono ones is my experience with these so it has a very similar experience but I noticed the vocals are much more enhanced and louder almost as if I'm wearing like airpods with transparency mode enabled it's kind of like that I'm quite surprised Apple was able to pull this off and it works really well but that's the audio enhancement booster preview right here other new changes can be the on-site ability where whenever you're watching like a movie and they're play or even a TV show and they're playing like background music it can actually show you what song is playing more information on the song the track as well as the actors in those clips this is very similar to like what we've seen in the past was Amazon Prime music so I like the fact that Apple now gave us this ability here as well and I'm sure other third party streaming devices platforms will also be able to utilize this new hardware and then if you watch shows and stuff like on a projector a new 21 by9 format is now compatible this is the ideal size if you're using your Apple TV on a TV projector as an example and then when you mute your device there's now a new auto caption ability by muting your Apple TV this will automatically bring up the captions so now you no longer have to enable them manually then the captions will automatically go on for a couple of seconds if you jump between different chapters this way you're not entirely lost in case the sentence get cut off in half now for FaceTime calling if you use your Apple TV for FaceTime calls FaceTime will now support live captions this is very similar to what we've seen from the previous OS software on our iPhones and iPads where live captions can now pop up during your conversations it's now compatible and supported on the Apple TV AirPlay spatial audio support is now enabled for the Apple TV where so long as the device supports it you'll be able to utilize spatial audio on AirPlay but the airpods proos new nod ability is also going to be compatible on the Apple TV where you could just simply reply and respond to Siri by simply just nodding your head for a yes or nodding your head for a no and then lastly another ma massive change can be located in the fitness app as the fitness app for my understanding has been fully redesigned there says to be more library of videos to choose from and when I was looking at it earlier oh sorry I didn't mean to do that there we go there there is a lot of new videos available and supposedly there's a new personalization ability now the reason why I'm saying supposedly because I'm not a person that personally uses Apple Fitness Plus so I'm not sure what's new what they actually change in here but if if you see anything that's interesting here feel free to comment down below and point it out for me cuz I again I'm not a subscriber but I really would like to know how many of you guys actually do use this because what I typically do is just look up YouTube videos but again let me know in the comments how many of you guys actually do use apple Fitness Plus and how many of you guys don't I'm curious to know what's the ratio really like in the world world now other than that that's everything new for Apple TV other new changes can be located in the home app on your iPhone where now you can actually change the preference on which Apple TV Hub you want to actually become the dedicated one where previously it was just random now a Reddit user have found out that you can actually select your applle TB Hub of choice in the settings in your homebridge settings so that's quite nice and then soon we'll also be able to use our vacuum robots to control it directly from the Apple TV home app as well from here now it's unsure what brand is going to be compatible but but I've seen people suggest that Robo Rock smart robot vacuums are going to be compatible and iroot as well I'm not sure about other brands but those are the only two that people are guaranteed or likely to see on supported and compatible on on the home app on our iPhones and this soon will also be able to Grant guest control for like lock doors and stuff so if you have a party going on just give them limited access for a certain duration and they'll be able to enter and exit your home in case you're staying over as well and then you also have the ability to monitor your pg& energy usage as they did recently partner up with apple other than that there you guys have it that is what we should be expecting to see on the next generation Apple TV OS 18 and some new changes that's coming out for the Apple home app as well let me know in the comments which one of these was your favorite and if you like to watch more highly recommend checking out this video over here where I go through all the new changes and new Integrations and features that Apple added on iOS 18 for our iPhones but all these software should be available sometime during the fall once the iPhone 16 release comes out and if you like to test out the public beta it'll become available sometime next month thank you so much for watching
