App works great on my ATV4, but it's still not showing up on my ATV3. Anyone else having problems on the ATV3? I've restarted already. Any known or suggested steps?
Got a tip for us?

Incorrect. It does not have native functionality with the Apple Tv APP. Try googling first before responding back.
It means it doesn’t integrate with the TV app, so “next up”, searches etc in the TV app don’t include Netflix.
Maybe learn to use it correctly first? Try googling for instructions. It's works just fine for everyone else. I see you are now attempting to pivot your argument by saying it does not have native functionality.
Newflash. It wasn't made by Apple, so you shouldn't expect it to have 100% Apple features.
Newsflash. Netflix is available on a wide range of platforms and programming intricacies into each version might be considered a tad expensive.
Newsflash. No one is complaining about Netflix except you. That should tell you something...
I guess you can go on your little tirade if you like. Just because you don't think it works right, doesn't mean everyone else agrees with you. Final newsflash. They don't.

Yeah I don't think you get it. I was referring to Netflix not integrating with https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207254
Amazon Prime, HBO Now, Showtime, etc all do. Netflix is the only holdout. You can settle down now.

Netflix clearly wants all of its users to have a common experience across all platforms. It's unlikely that Netflix will ever modify their app to work with the TV app.
Weird. Amazon video was working on appletv ver 3 I think.
We watched an episode of Mrs Maisel.
Then poof, it was gone.
Anyone else having this issue?

So what good shows are there to watch? I finished Tick. Grand Tour didn’t really appeal to me. Selection of movies isn’t that amazing, though I did get a blast out of rewatching some old anime. Not really getting the hype about the service.
I don’t find the shows that good. I mainly have prime for next day deliveries and the Tv shows is just part of it. I’ve also bought some content from amazon over time as they had certain titles on sale. So it’s nice to be able to watch it on my Apple TV without having to airplay.
I am retired and have binge watched all streaming services ‘original series’, way too much. On Amazon Prime, I have recently watched Hand of God and am now watching Bosch. I have enjoyed them as good as any other original series.
I kind of surprised Amazon hasn’t fixed the stereo output issue in the Apple TV app by now. It’s obvious they meant to support it since they originally announced that they did, but somehow screwed up. My only guess as to why it’s taking so long is that their videos aren’t encoded with AC-3, but that makes no sense since it’s pretty much an industry standard.
Moved house and BT messed up my home move. It was partly cancelled so they had to start a new order and due to christmas they can't send anybody out until then.
So I'm stuck using my phone data and tethering it to my macbook. Good job I have 100GB of data a month.
