Apple TV

30/11/2019

The YouTube app is available in the App Store for Apple TV (4th and 5th generations). This version of the YouTube app, which includes new features like video previews, makes it easier than ever to find popular content across YouTube on topics like comedy, gaming, news, and more.

Note: YouTube relies on VP9, the industry leading open-source codec, for distribution and playback of 4K videos. Using VP9 results in less buffering, faster startup, and higher video quality. The Apple TV 4K model (5th generation) does not support VP9, and therefore we can’t deliver 4K resolution on this device.
