You can change the password settings to not do that easily. It’s a prompt you choose on initial set up that requires the password every time, after 15 minutes, or never.
Comment on Apple TV+ is painful as fuck

My interest waned with the apple tv and its pos remote. Every update, on every app needed to have a password prompt.

This reminds me of a gripe with LG WebOS, they dont require sign in or passwords to update the big apps but if you want to update plex you have to sign in. Pure bullshit.

Been running an AppleTV HD for two years, and I’ve never had to reinput my password, nor have I had any other issues with it. I charge the remote battery maybe twice a year, and everything just works, faster and smoother than any onboard smart tv os I’ve ever used.

Yeah idk my Apple TVs have been hands down the best set top boxes of any that I’ve tried.

I’ve ran into the apple hate crowd plenty of times. I don’t think they’re any kind of tech paragon, but my household includes the Apple TV, three HomePods, two iPhones and MacBook Air and all of them work together seamlessly.
My main PC is running EndeavourOS and hyprland, so at least there’s no windows in the house.

I used to be part of the anti Apple club.
I have tux tattooed on my chest, literally.
Tech tribalism (the Apple hate club) is dumb generally.
