Apple Seeds First Beta of tvOS 13.4.5 Update to Developers

Apple today seeded the first beta of an upcoming tvOS 13.4.5 update to developers, one week after releasing tvOS 13.4.

Designed for the fourth and fifth-generation Apple TV models, the new tvOS 13.4.5 developer beta can be downloaded onto the ‌‌‌‌‌Apple TV‌‌‌‌‌ via a profile that's installed using Xcode.

tvOS updates are typically minor in scale, focusing on under-the-hood bug fixes and improvements rather than major outward-facing changes. There's no word yet on what's included in tvOS 13.4.5.

Though we don't often know what's new in tvOS during the beta testing process, we let MacRumors readers know when new updates are available so those who are developers can download it upon release.

This is a new bug after the recent update, I can't think of why they continue to have it go horizontal vs. in a grid like the rest of the options. The new shrinking of the artwork is beyond crazy and can't think how this passed QA testing.
Thanks for letting me know I’m not delusional.

Can someone check if the Unwatched list (which is still a freakin’ long sideways scroll) of the Computer app still messing up images of movies as you scroll. In 13.4, the disappear from the bottom up the further you go until they’re just a single line.

Drives me nuts.

Sttill haven’t fixed the buggy Apple TV app.

Apple needs to learn that to be big in services, they must be amazing in software and hosting. And they simply are not a quality shop today.

Unable to view Recent in your library. It scrolls up beyond the screen with no way of bringing it back down.
