Set up your Apple TV on the Home app
You can add your Apple TV to a room in your home on the Home app so that you can use it to control speakers, run automated scenes, and monitor security cameras.
For more information about setting up the Home app, see the iPhone User Guide.
Go to Settings on Apple TV.
Go to AirPlay and HomeKit, then do either of the following:
If this room is not already set up in the Home app: Select Room, then select a room from the list of suggested rooms, or select Add New Room and enter the name of this room.
The room you choose is automatically added to the Home app of the default user of this Apple TV.
If this room is already set up in the Home app: Select Room, then select the room that this Apple TV is in.
Note: Updates to the Home app in iOS 16.2, iPadOS 16.2, and macOS 13.1 offer more reliable and efficient control of connected devices in your home when you use Apple TV as a home hub. For more information, see the Apple Support article Upgrade to the new Home architecture.
