We have bad news if you own and enjoy Apple TV but prefer Android over iOS. Apple recently released another update to tvOS 16, but over the weekend, multiple users You realized that the only way to accept the new iCloud terms and conditions and use all of its features is with an updated iOS device.

It seems Apple expects everyone to have a modern, up-to-date iPhone or iPad to use Apple TV. This is because a pop-up window asks owners using iOS 16 to accept the latest changes or update their Apple ID settings.

It’s worth noting that most people with an Apple TV probably use the entire Apple ecosystem, so this won’t be a problem for many. However, it’s still a frustrating problem that doesn’t make much sense.

To make matters worse, it’s not just Android users who are left behind. According to 9to5Mac, even if you have something like a MacBook Pro or an older iPad, you might as well get stuck. This is because the tvOS 16 update doesn’t allow you to accept terms with a Mac, and some older iPads don’t have iOS 16.

Owners can still set up an Apple TV, make purchases, join a streaming subscription, and install apps without a problem. However, with tvOS 16, things are changing a bit. Users get a similar message to “update Apple ID settings”, which requires a device running iOS 16, leading to problems for some.

You can dismiss the notice for now. Also, it appears that anyone experiencing this issue can sign out of their iCloud account, sign back in, and then accept the terms on the TV. With that said, we wonder if this is a sign of things to come or a software glitch to be fixed soon.
