Apple Releases tvOS 18.2.1 With Data Syncing Fix
A minor software update for the Apple TV was released today.
tvOS 18.2.1 is now available for all Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K models. It can be installed on the Apple TV by opening the Settings app and selecting System → Software Updates. It is a minor update with a data syncing bug fix.
According to Apple's release notes, the tvOS 18.2.1 update "addresses an issue where data may not sync correctly across devices."
The update has a build number of 22K160.
Apple also released iOS 18.2.1 and iPadOS 18.2.1 with "important bug fixes" earlier this month.
tvOS 18.2.1 follows tvOS 18.2, which was released in December with a Snoopy screen saver option on the second-generation Apple TV 4K and newer, along with support for ultra-wide 21:9 content with a home theater projector on the third-generation Apple TV 4K.
Next up is tvOS 18.3, which is currently in beta and likely to be released in late January. The update might introduce robot vacuum support in the Home app by time it is released, but otherwise it is shaping up to be a very minor update.
Apple reportedly plans to release the next Apple TV in the later months of 2025, with an Apple-designed Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip that could add Wi-Fi 6E support to the streaming device. The current Apple TV 4K was released in October 2022.
