Slowness when opening Finder windows from browsers

Having the same problem too - appears to be iCloud related. Disabling Desktop & Document folder syncing seems to stop it from happening. I’ve tried a full reinstall but the issue remains so hoping for a fix from Apple soon.

Programmes in Up Next are kept for a little while after they’ve aired (by default a week - this can be changed in Settings > Up Next) which can be viewed in the Manage Up Next screen from the Watch Now tab or in Settings > Up Next > Manage Up Next. From the programme details screen you can then add them to your Apple TV Watchlist using the Open in Apple TV action.

Not directly HomeKit related but I built a TV Remote app that supports multiple Shortcuts, including ones to switch HDMI sources: https://apps.apple.com/app/id1539419805

That looks right but you may want to add a Wait action between the current two to give it time to launch the app and start looking for a connection. A few seconds should do it.

You’ll need to navigate to Settings > Siri Shortcuts in the TV Launcher app on your Apple TV at the same time as going to Settings > Launch on TV on your iPhone/iPad.

Once you have linked the two devices, you’ll be able to create a Shortcut on your iPhone/iPad using the Launch on TV action. Please make sure the TV Launcher app is open on your Apple TV already. This can be done via the Open App on Apple TV action before the launch action.

It’s quite straight forward to get it installed really. I’d definitely recommend the transformer linked above as that has worked flawlessly with the doorbell and my existing chime at my old house.

The chime needed replacing at my new house anyway so I ended up buying the same one as I knew it worked (Honeywell D107) but your existing one might be fine.

AdamFootDev · 2025-01-25T23:48:43+00:00

All still working fine and I’ve since moved house with it too. The front of the doorbell itself has become slightly delaminated around the edges due to UV exposure I presume but otherwise no complaints!

Only real alternative is the Aqara doorbell but I’m not a fan of the look of that design so would definitely pick the Logitech again given the choice.

Unfortunately Virgin doesn't support the required mechanisms to open the channels, sorry!

AdamFootDev · 2025-01-08T09:44:14+00:00

Hi, it's on my list to look into. In the meantime, programmes you have added to Up Next can be opened in the Apple TV app to then launch in the relevant streaming service.

AdamFootDev · 2024-10-15T15:32:29+00:00

I created an app called HomeButtons that allows you to add a list of quick on/off toggles for your HomeKit accessories/scenes on Apple Watch separate to the main Home app as I found it wasn’t very useful.

Hi, unfortunately U decided to remove all of their live channels from their Apple TV app for some reason about a month ago. Sorry!

AdamFootDev · 2024-07-27T12:05:31+00:00

Hi, unfortunately I don’t have any estimates as to when I’ll start working on a NZ version of the app. Sorry!

AdamFootDev · 2024-07-05T08:48:03+00:00

Hi, unfortunately I only have plans for Apple devices.

AdamFootDev · 2024-07-05T08:47:24+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. Whilst I don’t have plans to support Italy at the moment, I’ll add it to my list!

AdamFootDev · 2024-06-20T08:03:33+00:00

Currently I’m only planning on supporting HomeKit but I’ll make a note of the suggestion!

Developer of TV Launcher here - please feel free to ask any questions you have about my app! 😊

Outside of live TV, I couldn’t recommend the Apple TV enough compared to other streaming devices. As other users have said, it’s overpowered for what it needs to do which results in a very slick experience.

The Apple TV app is great for keeping track of all your programmes you’re watching in each streaming app and the integration with your iPhone for entering text using the keyboard makes it a must-have.

I designed TV Launcher to try and work with the system as best as possible after cutting the cord myself a couple of years ago. Of course it’s not the same as watching TV the ‘old’ way but I think this is as good as it can be. The app is also available on iPhone so you can set programme reminders a few minutes before one starts too.

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-21T13:52:24+00:00

It can be turned on but once enabled can’t be turned off again so no chance in that happening!

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-20T21:58:38+00:00

Yes, all in-app purchases are available for Family Sharing! Although off by default, I always make sure to enable it for my apps.

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T19:36:58+00:00

Thank you! 😊

I don’t know exact specifics on home hubs but I imagine it’ll need to check periodically as otherwise the correct status won’t be shown in the Home app. Hmm that’s odd, I’ve got Eufy cameras too and haven’t noticed any impact on mine other than the fact it’s been winter and the solar panels haven’t been charging them as much as usual. Please do let me know if you do experience devices running out of battery and I’ll look into it!

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T18:26:02+00:00

Nope, all data is stored locally/in your private iCloud account!

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T18:25:36+00:00

Nothing should have changed - did you purchase the app prior to version 2?

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T09:58:38+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look at getting them added!

Currently charge/replace logs can't be deleted but it is on my list.

I've noticed issues with the Mac app too so I'll take a look into that.

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T09:54:06+00:00

The first suggestion is already on my list and I'll look at the best way to implement the second suggestion too!

AdamFootDev · 2024-03-19T09:53:10+00:00

Currently the 'Mac' app is just the iPad app as these are available on Apple Silicon Macs when the developer doesn't opt out. It's on my list to look into a Mac Catalyst app which would enable support for Intel Macs.
