Help a dinosaur with "Apple TV"

TJ, if your iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV are all connected to the same iCloud account, the photos you take with your phone or iPad will be send to your tv whenever your phone backs up photos to the cloud. Make sure that cloud backup is happening automatically in your phone settings.

Thanks...I'm working on that. I've reached my techno limit for today but it is on the list for tomorrow.

While you have the physical remote for Apple TV there is also an app "Apple TV Remote" you can get from the Apple App Store so you can drive your Apple TV from your phone or ipad without the need for the remote. This also makes it easier to sign in to things so you can type on your phone directly when needed instead of using the handheld remote and picking letters.

‎Apple TV Remote is a great companion to Apple TV, delivering the best of the Siri Remote. With Apple TV Remote, you’ll never need to put down your iPhone or iPad to enjoy Apple TV. Control Apple TV with a swipe of your finger or use the keyboard to quickly enter text. And you can use the app...

Open the app store app and search for "Apple TV Remote" or click the link above from your phone or iPad.

Thanks, @Neal. Wish I'd known about the app when I was trying to register. Trying to use the remote to peck in one letter at a time was A pain.

Who Knew?

So, being the tech-savvy old guy I am, I ordered a second remote for the newly-installed AppleTV 4K so that LadyDi would have her own. Yeah...I know...I just found out...you can only have ONE remote connected to that little black box. Who knew, indeed? Probably everyone but me. Glad Amazon has a liberal return policy. Oh well.

I installed the AppleTV remote app on my phone, so that should work.
