Reboot and try again. For the phone, delete the old pairing and pair it again. That often gets weird after an update. And it's not just the Podcast app. It's folders! It can attach to keyboards! And something else I've forgotten.

My Samsung TV was the same way. Once I turned on the CEC -- difficult with the weird interface of Samsung's -- I could turn the TV off with the remote, and turn it on! If I use the Siri remote to do it, it gives me the front page of the Apple TV. If I turn it on with the TV remote, it starts with the TV. Yay!
Siri doesn't work for you and your iphone doesn't connect because you did something wrong.
But you did really badly was to post that stuff in this thread and to think that nothing else can be done until someone fixes those things that you screwed up. That's incredibly selfish and sad.
The way they used to? But everybody says it was anti-choice! The apps I chose do update, though. And I think the idea there are "apps we all need" is an illusion.

I doubt it is that. I've heard that you can put all kinds of videos in "Home Movies." I think for the moment it's a Developer thing. But I think that will change. A bluetooth keyboard is now working. Remote has worked for a while, so you can try the iPhone or iPad Remote app.
I hope it allows me to pair my replacement siri remote. Right now, all I get is "move the remote closer". I've been stuck using a universal for months, and universal + appleTV4 is worse than universal+AppleTV3 for scrolling long lists.
(yeah, i held the buttons down. yeah, i restarted the AppleTV. no, the old one is lost)

I have tons of family videos from 1970 onward, and a gazillion more family pictures from XIX century. Why shouldn't I be able to connect the HD with all that good stuff to my ATV via USB while I can do it via wifi?
I'm glad that all iPhone owners have finally found someone to speak on their behalf, because we all have the same needs.
Use Plex. It's free and you can access the content on all your devices and your Apple TV and you don't have to be on your network to use it.
I was going to suggest a PI instead of a full-blown cheap PC.
The plex offering on your network is free. Once you want to start using other devices , you need to play.
Siri works just fine for me, and my iPhone connects to my cars Bluetooth just fine as well.
So maybe you should look into something else being the root.
That's not true. I don't pay for Plex and i use it on a Roku at my friends house and my iPhone and iPad over LTE/Wifi at other locations. I've even airplayed movies at friends houses.
The update includes more than just an app. You only had to read as far as the second sentence of the article to know this.
Apple today released the third update to tvOS, the operating system designed to run on the fourth-generation Apple TV. tvOS 9.1.1 is a minor update that likely includes bug fixes and performance updates to address issues discovered since the launch of tvOS 9.1, which was released to the public in December of 2015.
The new 9.1.1 update can be downloaded over the air through the Settings app on the Apple TV by going to System --> Software Update. Those who have automatic software updates turned on will be upgraded to the new 9.1.1 operating system automatically.
tvOS 9.1.1 is available a month and a half after the release of tvOS 9.1. Like the first minor tvOS update, tvOS 9.0.1, tvOS 9.1.1 focuses on under-the-hood improvements, but it does introduce one major change -- a new Podcasts app for the Apple TV.
tvOS 9.1.1 comes as Apple is testing the second major update to the tvOS operating system, tvOS 9.2. Apple has thus far seeded one beta of tvOS 9.2 to developers, which includes new features like support for Bluetooth keyboards, app folders, a revamped app switcher, and more.

Great, now when is the Amazon prime app coming, they said it was coming in a few weeks, and that was nearly 2 months ago... any one have news on this???
Imagine Jony Ive taking your coffee order. I think I'd shoot myself.
Unapologetical Roast, please.
Hopefully this fixes Siri's search results on Apple TV. It has only been showing iTunes results and leaving out Netflix, etc.
I'm going to the new exciting yet exclusively Apple coffee shop around the corner which has never been done before. Impossibly thin cups, ridiculously drinkable coffee that we've fused with the mooest of cows milk and optional sweetner in a packet, a first of it's kind.
