I downloaded this morning and it's still showing the same thing for me. Is the update done yet?
 
There is a widespread problem with iTunes Connect currently preventing people from submitting updates to their apps. The tvStorage update is complete and uploaded. Once Apple fixes their issues it will be submitted then you will have to wait a few days for approval.
 
Does this show storage from side loaded apps ?

I have an emulator with lots of roms , will this reflect that ?

It will show any storage taken on your device. There is an issue with accuracy though that has been fixed. Im just waiting on apple to fix itunesConnect to submit it. I also added the Current Time to the display because I can't believe that apple doesn't display that in the upper corner or something.

Here is a screenshot of 1.2 which will be here soon:

iTunesConnect issues have been fixed and version 1.2 has been submitted for review. Will update in a few days.
 
Version 1.2 is now available in the App Store. Let me know if it's working better now, especially those with 64gb units.
 
64gb Apple TV


Used space : 14gb

Free space: 42gb

Total space: 57gb


Can you change the clock to 12h
Right now it says 20:13 not 8:13

Those space totals look normal (you always lose space off the top on any device). Thanks for sharing that.

I will look into adding a setting for the clock. Thanks for the suggestion.

No thanks...

I just downloaded it, cheerfully paying the 99 cents. It provides some information that I have wanted on the Apple TV, and it cost less than a dollar. A no-brainier purchase. The iOS App Store has given folks a severely twisted concept of what software is worth. The only lower price he could have put on it is Free. Would free have astonished me? No. Do I regret the dollar? No. His choice. Now I have a bit of information that I had wanted to check on, and I didn't have to write my own app to get it (I could, but I haven't tried tvOS programming yet).

Just installed to my 64Gb model.
Used: 1GB
Free: 55GB
Total: 57GB

I need to download more apps haha!

Adding battery % would be a handy little addition too if it were possible, one app to get a quick overview of the stats of the ATV.
