Apple TV: A Ridiculously Simple Guide to Getting Started with Apple TV 4K and HD with TVOS 13

Cut the Cable Cord!

The streaming wars are here! If you want to watch the latest and greatest TV shows, put aside your cable box and plug in your streaming box!

Apple TV is arguably the best streaming device out there; yes, there are cheaper ones—lots of them—but Apple TV feels like everything else Apple does: premium.

You aren't just paying for a device that can play movies; you're paying for something that can play games, apps, and mirror your other Apple products. Even more, you are paying for a slick user interface that isn't confusing, slow or buggy. It just works!

This guide is an introduction to the newest Apple TV (released in October 2017); but if you have the earlier 2015 model, that's fine—you'll even find it useful if you have the earlier models (though some of the features won't be here).

It will teach you the basics, then move on to how to really get the most out of your purchase; it will also cover how to make the switch from cable to streaming TV and cover one of Apple's newest services: Apple TV+.

There's something for everyone here, so if you're ready to take your entertainment to the next level, let's go!
