AT&T here (unsure if carrier settings were updated/haven't received a notification requesting carrier update).
I'm showing TV provider app in Settings but I have DirectTV (through AT&T) so haven't been able to do single sign-on.
All that being said, I show the TV app. It showed after the update and I'd assume you tried the normal troubleshooting (hard reset, clean update via iTunes, etc.) so only thing I can think of is maybe something with your location (like if you download through a different store not the US store)?
Maybe reset all settings 1st? Worth a shot.
475 mb after its ready to be installed.
Same here. "Apple Apps" folder and TV was put in there and video app thrown to screen 3.
It's not fully fuctional... and it doesn't allow accessing Shared (Home Sharing) libraries yet.I'm confused by the TV app. I know we can't access content yet but why is there still a Videos app?? The TV app shows everything the Videos app does so although I know it can be deleted why is it included to begin with?
It seems really odd to me to have both the TV app and a videos app. It seems the TV app can do everything the videos app does. Am I missing something, I was never a heavy user of the videos app.

[doublepost=1478569180][/doublepost]For those of you without the TV app, did you update OTA? My 7 Plus and Air 2 both updated via iTunes both have the TV app.

I'm also seeing that animation bug.

One question that comes into my head is...
Why does all this TV stuff have to be built into the OS? Why can't it just be an app?
Wouldn't it make more sense to have an app that can be updated independently of the OS to resolve issues?

Ohh so I guess when it goes GM and released publicly the Videos app will be removed? (I know we'll pretty much have to wait and see through the betas but wanted to make i didn't miss anything during the keynote/release notes)
Because tied with iTunes maybe? They obviously want to promote their content too and I guess tv is kind of morphing into "apps"/monthly subscriptions anyway?
Triple home button shortcut in accessibility shortcut setting is enable or disable ?
If enable, can you try again after disable it ?
I'm guessing the videos app will be going. Tv app seems to be the equivalent of Music - it even looks the same.
I've been saying this for years with all the built-in apps. Decouple them from iOS and have them update like any other app from the App Store. Then when there is an issue or enhancement, we don't have to have a whole new iOS update, just an app update.
That would make their major software releases a lot less exciting though. I mean, it would be nice, but iOS is mostly the apps it comes with. If they could independently update those apps at any time, the yearly iOS updates would be rendered quite mundane, and I don't think Apple would do that to themselves.
