However it is quite expensive too, but if you can afford it, then you should go for it. It offers tons of infotainment apps which include Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.  

You can control your whole entertainment system through voice commands with the help of Siri remote. But yes, first of all, you have to set up your Apple TV to get started with it. It doesn't take much effort or time as it is only a one-time process. Once the setup process completes, you can easily use your Apple TV with your Voice Commands. Let's get started.

 

Things Needed to Setup Apple TV

 

●        A good internet network- Choose at least 20MBPS 

●        HDMI Cable 

●        A Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable 

●        An iPhone if you have (Not necessary)

 

Setting Up Apple TV 

 

1.      Unbox everything and then ensure that all items are available: the Apple TV package includes Apple TV, a power cord, a USB-to-Lightning cord, as well as a Siri remote. 

2.      Now pick up the power cord and insert its smaller plug into the Apple TV power socket located on its backside and then insert the other end of the power cord into the power socket. 

3.      Take HDMI cable and then connect it to your TV and then to the Apple TV.  

4.      If you are using Ethernet cable to access the internet in the Apple TV, then connect the Ethernet cable to your Apple TV. 

5.      If you are using a Wi-Fi router, then insert the Ethernet cable's one end into the Apple TV and the other end in the Wi-Fi router. 

6.      Now turn on your TV and Apple TV. After that, simply take your TV remote and then press the source button. 

7.      Select the HDMI port that you are using to connect the Apple TV.

8.      Now you will see the Apple TV display on your TV. Take the Siri remote and then tap your finger on the Touch surface of your Siri Remote.

9.      By doing so, your Siri remote will be paired to the Apple TV. If the remote is still not connected to the TV, then you should long-press the Menu and Volume buttons together for about 5 seconds. 

10.  Using the touch surface, you will have to scroll up or down in the Apple TV menu. Choose your country and language. To press OK, you will have to tap the touch surface just like you do on a laptop's touchpad. 

11.  Choose whether you want to choose the Siri voice assistant or not (This can be changed after the setup too).

12.  Press the Menu button and then select the "Set Up Manually" option. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the further setup.
