tvOS 13 is the fifth release of tvOS, shipped September 24, 2019. Multi-user support arrived — profiles with per-person Up Next and recommendations — alongside a redesigned home screen with full-screen video previews, Apple Arcade's launch on the platform, and pairing for Xbox and PlayStation controllers, which quietly made the Apple TV a credible game console for living-room players.
1 Features✎
Multiple users with the Control Center switcher; Apple Arcade; Xbox One and DualShock 4 controller support; full-screen previews; picture-in-picture; underwater screensavers; and lyrics-synced Apple Music.
2 Legacy✎
Profiles and console-controller support fixed the platform's two family-room gaps, and Arcade's launch positioned tvOS in Apple's services era — the box as subscription endpoint.
