The truth is that all the presentation of news happened a little faster than the rest of the operating systems and that tvOS is a much newer operating system than the rest of Apple's systems, which means that the news or the work that is can perform in general is less.

We do not have to think that the novelties are few, the novelties are just for a device that really performs its functions to perfection today and part of the details that can always be polished, the Apple Tv with its tvOS form a good set and with the new features, it improves a lot.

A highlight of the novelties of the operating system for Apple's st-top box is that now we a single account to login to the rest of the services. What has been the possibility of logging in with your HBO, Netflix, Youtube and other services that require login, with a single account. This will have to see how it works in more detail, but it is something very interesting about this new operating system.

The personal assistant Siri has achieved part of the prominence in this keynote and in the case of Apple tv and its new tvOS, the improvements come hand in hand with greater integration with the applications. For example, integration with searches on YouTube, among other options.

HomeKit also appeared among the novelties of this new tvOS, now it allows us to control the temperature of the home from the Apple TV of a certain generation or turn on and off lights, etc. Obviously it requires compatible devices on HomeKit, but we think it's great to also be able to use the Apple TV for this.

Dark Mode comes to Apple TV in this new version and although it is true it is a purely aesthetic change, we think it is good to be able to use it on the device. Remote for iOS completely changes its interface And you can use the iPhone as a control pad and to play with it. This new version makes use of the iPhone accelerometer to interact with the new fourth generation Apple TV.

On the other hand, highlight that The new fourth-generation Apple TV now has 1.300 channels and more than 6.000 native applications that with the passage of time will increase.
