    I have been using a single Apple TV in a multi-user home for many years, I think you’re overselling the difficulty here. Virtually every app will just ask you what user profile you want to use when the app opens; and when you’re done, closing the app is simple.

    It’s far more obnoxious to need to browse every single app for their content rather than having a single unified watch list and closing an app when you’re done.

      What are you even talking about?? This entire thread- no post- is about apple showing the content of the apps in the main feed?

      Are you lost? This discussion has nothing to do with login in or out of specific apps.

        I mean, you lead with “logging out is hard so I have no choice but to have a single user”. I countered with “it’s not hard, we do it just fine, here are mechanics that make it fairly easy”.

        If you don’t understand that closing the tv app stops showing the tv app I’m not sure how to help you.

              My argument is founded inherently by the fact you invented a problem of logging in/out of individual apps from thin air, then tried to lay it at my feet as my problem. This due ostensibly to your inability to follow context. The nature of your imbecility is simply implied by the facts and your blind arrogance.

                AppleTVs have a quick user switch capability that I think you’re just not aware of.

                Hold the menu button down and the menu comes up it’s literally the first option, the user.

                If you’re not using the hardware but are instead using the app … yeah, that’s standard fare.
