Deploy Apple TV
Apple TV has device management capabilities, most of which are already present on iPhone, iPad and Mac. These features make it easy to configure an Apple TV for use in many common education and enterprise scenarios, from dedicated classroom or conference room AirPlay destinations to kiosks using Custom Apps in Single App Mode.
Apple TV using tvOS 10.2 or later can take advantage of the features listed next.
Auto Advance for Automated Device Enrolment with Apple TV
Auto Advance is an additional option for Automated Device Enrolment that allows you to skip all Setup Assistant panes automatically with an Apple TV that is plugged into power and Ethernet. If Apple School Manager, Apple Business Manager or Apple Business Essentials settings have already been configured for that specific Apple TV, it powers up and enrols in mobile device management (MDM) without any user input after a brief pause at the Siri Remote pairing step. This set-up allows MDM commands to:
Set the default language and region
Set the name of the Apple TV
Install configuration profiles to fully configure the Apple TV
Install apps
Supervision
If the serial number of the Apple TV appears in Apple School Manager, Apple Business Manager, or Apple Business Essentials, or is configured with Apple Configurator for Mac, Apple TV can be supervised just like iPhone, iPad and Mac devices. Some existing payloads and commands also require supervision. For more information, see About Apple device supervision.
Naming
If the Apple TV is supervised, the name can be set with an MDM solution or Apple Configurator.
MAC address broadcasting
In tvOS 15 or later, Apple TV no longer broadcasts its media access control (MAC) address. To prevent unwanted pairing attempts, a new key in the TV Remote payload for iPhone and iPad — TVDeviceName
— can be used to remove Apple TV device names in the Apple TV remote widget.
AirPlay with Apple TV
Apple TV can be placed in conference rooms, classrooms and other common areas. You can configure AirPlay to allow or restrict who can AirPlay to specific Apple TV devices. For more information, see AirPlay discovery.
