Electronics can be confusing.

Here are a few tips on how to get started with the TV.
If you have any issues, please message us, we guarantee you an answer within minutes!
TV Remote
Here is a quick summary of what the remote buttons do.
You can also use the Remote App that comes with your iPhone.
TV not connected to internet?
Are you getting an error message saying that the TV is not connected to the internet?
Click ⌂ on the remote and make sure TV is selected (see picture on the left)
Cable TV
We have an AT&T TV Premier (formerly Direct TV Now) subscription.
You should be able to access your favorite channels directly from the AT&T TV app.
If the app is asks for a password, please contact us.

Each one has its own app and unique contents.

One App to rule them all
Look for a title, but not sure which service has it?
Check the TV app and start searching.
Click on the title you are looking for, it will tell you where you can watch it.
Too confusing? Getting asked for passwords?
After updating, apps sometime ask for a password reminder.
If the app you are trying to access does not let you watch its contents, send us a message.
We’d be happy to help anytime, either remotely or by coming over and walk you through the steps.
Game Controllers
We have 4 game controllers to play with your friends and family.
They are located in the living room side table.
To turn the controllers on, slide the “Hold” button to the “black” position.
The controller’s LEDs should light up red. If not, turn it OFF/ON again.
The controllers have a rechargeable battery (iPhone lighting cable). We’d be happy to charge them for you if needed.
Party Games
Our favorite party games on the Apple TV are:
These games can play with as many people as desired, each one playing on his own smartphone.
Drawful is similar to Pictionary. Give it a try!
Multiplayer Games
Several of the games available can be played split-screen with your friends with the help of the controllers.
