Biggest Apple TV Update Yet? | What’s New in tvOS 26

Apple TV didn’t get new hardware at WWDC 2025, but tvOS 26 brings some notable upgrades. The biggest visual change is the new Liquid Glass interface which offers a sleek, transparent design that keeps the focus on your content. Other updates include improved user profiles, streamlined app logins via your Apple ID, and a new Apple Music sing-along feature using your iPhone as a mic. Live translation and captions come to FaceTime, too, with enhanced on-device privacy. It’s all about deeper ecosystem integration and smoother usability—exactly what Apple fans have come to expect. tvOS 26 arrives this fall, with betas rolling out soon.
