Netflix is ending support for second and third generation Apple TVs as of July 31, 2024. These devices, which were released in 2010 and 2012 respectively, are considered obsolete by Apple as they predate the App Store for the hardware.
Netflix sent emails to customers announcing the end of support for these older models. The reason given is to maintain the best possible Netflix experience. However, it's unclear why Netflix is ending support now other than age and potential codec compatibility issues.
The second and third generation Apple TVs were effectively obsolete when Apple released the fourth generation Apple TV in 2015. It launched with tvOS and an App Store.
For those who still have these older devices, there are a few options to continue using Netflix. They can use Home Sharing, AirPlay, or download Netflix apps on other devices such as iPhones or iPads to stream content on their TVs.
Netflix's decision to end support for older Apple TV models is not surprising as it has dropped support for other older devices in the past. However, it may be frustrating for some users who still rely on these devices and may not have the resources to upgrade.
It's important to note that this change does not affect Apple TV HD or newer models, which are still supported by Netflix.
