Apple’s newly released tvOS 16.2 adds a “Recognize My Voice” feature that customizes Siri searches on the Apple TV 4K and TV HD for up to six users.
Once you’ve trained the set-top to know who’s speaking, you can ask for video recommendations and music without worrying that you’ll mess with someone’s play history. You can also ask to “switch to my profile” instead of navigating the on-screen switcher.
You can also change the Siri language to be different than the one your device shows. Accordingly, the Apple TV also has expanded language support in Denmark, Luxembourg and Singapore.
MacDailyNews Take: tvOS 16.2 also makes singing along with Apple Music even more fun.
