Hi all, does anybody know if it's possible to lock an Apple TV4 into a single app?

I have read about single-app mode through Apple Configurator, only problem is the apps must be from the enterprise/in-house app store and cannot come from the consumer app store.
I do not believe the iOS style Guided Access is available on tvOS so that is also ruled out.

I did think about leaving the app open on the ATV and turn the sleep timer off. The main drawback here is that the Apple TV would not reload the app once it was reconnected to power.

Any ideas or input would be greatly appreciated!
