Apple has published the full tvOS 27 release notes nearly two weeks after the software update launched. The release adds new features for Apple Music, Podcasts and AirPlay, along with bug fixes and security updates for Apple TV 4K.

The update was released on September 14. Apple TV does not display software release notes in the Settings app, so Apple periodically updates a separate support document with details of changes.

New Apple Music and Podcasts features

Apple Music now supports Hi-Res Lossless audio for studio-quality playback. AutoMix transitions between songs using time stretching and beatmatching.

The redesigned Podcasts app adds video podcasts. The update also provides transcribed audio for content without standard captions or subtitles.

AirPlay and accessibility changes

Apple says AirPlay connections are faster and more responsive when photos, videos and music are shared from an iPhone, iPad or Mac to Apple TV.

Dynamic Text in Accessibility settings lets users set their preferred text size across supported apps. Users can also block individual apps from being launched through Settings.

Compatible Apple TV models

tvOS 27 supports the second-generation Apple TV 4K and newer models.
