As part of the release of tvOS 16.2, iOS 16.2and iPadOS 16.2 and macOS Ventura 13.1, a new version of the Apple TV app is introduced. Among other novelties, the Cupertino company has decided to move the “Up Next” section to the “Watch now” tab. This site is being replaced by the featured content, and there is no way to turn it off.
” this is embarrassing “
Quite annoyed, some users of the social network Reddit criticized this new interface, such as Sean310 who deplores: “I absolutely hate the new look. And they go straight to previews with audio. WTF Apple? The Next menu is small now and easy to skip (intentionally). And when you’re in the Up Next line, Apple TV+ shows take up 85% of the screen below. Really bad. You need Apple.” Right to recovery.”
Same story from jason_ferguson who adds: “It’s awful, especially since even before the change, the entire app looked like an advertisement for Apple TV+ content. Now it’s completely unusable. Two whole tabs dedicated to Apple TV+…it’s a shame.”
For its part, WikiWikiWhat laments: Same, my show was updated last night and it feels like a huge dip. I don’t feel like a premium product anymore, I feel like a cheap ad platform. I’d like to at least have the option to go back to the old ‘next’ show.
Going back to the old version of Apple TV?
It is difficult to say how Apple will react and whether the Apple brand will finally decide to let its customers go back with this step. For your part, have you already been able to test this new version of Apple TV? And if so, what do you think? Tell us in the comments.
