Apple TV is a digital media player and streaming device made by Apple.
It connects to your Smart TV through HDMI and gives you access to apps like Netflix, Showmax, and Apple TV+ (Apple’s own streaming service with exclusive movies and shows).
There’s also Apple TV app, which comes built into many Smart TVs, so you don’t always need the external box.
For example, with Apple TV, you can stream content, play games, or use AirPlay to mirror your iPhone screen directly to the TV.
