The software update also brings the Snoopy screensaver to Apple TV – a feature that was also revealed at WWDC in June.

It’s been a big week forAppledevices this week after the company released its latest software updates with new features foriPhone, iPad,MacandApple Watch.

Apple Intelligence is now readily available oniPhone,iPadand Mac, for example, adding some of themore interesting featurestoo, like Image Playground, Genmoji and ChatGPT integration. However, let’s not forget about Apple TV – that also gets some new tricks thanks to the tvOS 18.2 software release.

I won’t lie, my favourite new feature forApple TVwith tvOS 18.2 is actually the Snoopy screensaver, which was announced at WWDC in June but has only just arrived. That’s not what we are talking about here though.

You can now choose between Automatic, 16:9, 21:9, 2.37:1. 2.39:1, 2.40:1. DCI 4K and 32:9. Most TVs are 16:9, but if you happen to have aprojectorconnected to your Apple TV, you can choose the aspect ratio that is best suited to your screen.

How to change the aspect ratio on Apple TV

The aspect ratio options can be found in the Audio and Video settings within your Apple TV settings.

You will need to ensure you are running tvOS 18.2, which you will be able to check in the settings menu on your Apple TV, too. If you aren’t, you can push the software update through manually and enjoy not only the different aspect ratio options, but Snoopy too.
