Switch quickly between Apple TV apps
You can quickly switch between different apps on Apple TV without having to return to the Home Screen. App-switching view on Apple TV works very much like the multitasking feature on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. If an app isn’t working right, you can force it to quit and then open it again from the Home Screen.
