{{tvOS Version Navbox}}

tvOS 12 is the fourth release of [[tvOS]], shipped September 17, 2018. Dolby Atmos certification made the Apple TV 4K the first device certified for both Dolby Vision and Atmos, with iTunes again upgrading libraries free; zero sign-on detected the cable broadband and logged apps in automatically; and the aerial screensavers gained location captions and a new batch shot from the International Space Station.

= Features =

Dolby Atmos; zero sign-on; autofill passwords from iPhone; the ISS aerials; Home Control Center integration; and third-party home-control apps on TV.

= Legacy =

The Atmos-plus-Vision pairing set the home-theater reference spec, and the free-upgrade pattern (HD→4K, stereo→Atmos) became Apple's recurring library-goodwill move.
