Apple will give your older Apple TV a new lease on life with Siri AI
Apple is bringing Siri AI to older Apple TV 4K models via a free software update, so you might not need to buy a new model to get its smarter assistant.
Apple is set to breathe new life into older Apple TV 4K models with the introduction of Siri AI, following the launch of the fourth-generation Apple TV. The upgrade, available as a free software update later this year, will enhance Siri's capabilities on the 2nd and 3rd Gen Apple TVs, as well as the new 4th Gen model. Siri AI will provide a more robust personal assistant experience, accessible through the Siri Remote or the box's far-field microphones, and support for multiple HomePod speakers.
Apple has confirmed that the update will be available in select countries, including the U.S., Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, and the UK, in English. While the AI-powered Siri will bring richer recommendations and broader knowledge, it may not be as fast on older models. Nevertheless, the free update offers an enhanced way to interact with Apple TV and find content, alongside the option to purchase the new Siri Remote, which includes a speaker and ultra-wideband technology for precise remote tracking.
