Steaming shows and movies on Apple TV gives a unique experience like no other. They are designed for big family rooms, meeting rooms and classrooms, but there are many more things that users can do with it. When using Apple TV in the family or a classroom, a single Apple ID is never enough. Everyone has a different taste and that’s why every user prefers to use their own Apple ID to watch their favourite content.

To remember this need of users, Apple has offered the feature to add multiple accounts on Apple TV. Now users can access multiple Apple IDs at a time. So if anyone is willing to add multiple accounts on their Apple TV, here’s what they have to do.

How to Add Multiple Accounts on Apple TV

To use multiple accounts on Apple TV, users have to add all additional Apple accounts. Here’s how to organize all accounts on Apple TV.

  • Open Settings on Apple TV.
  • Tap on Accounts.
  • Press the iTunes and App Store.
  • Press Add new Apple ID.
  • Press Enter New…
  • Add another Apple ID.
  • Tap on Continue.
  • Type Password.
  • Press Sign In.

After switching to another Apple account, users will have to re-download the content or app on that account.

How to Use Control Center to Switch between Users

Every member of the family can watch their preferred content through multi-user support. While watching something on Apple TV, users will get to see Up Next content based on the user’s taste. Apart from multi-user support, users can also access Control Center, which provides some useful features like audio routing and sleep.

  • Use Siri remote and press the Home/TV button.
  • Choose the Apple ID user at the top right corner of the Control Center of Apple TV.

The user is now switched on Apple TV. Users can easily switch between users through the Control Center, but it isn’t the only useful feature in the Control Center.

Apart from switching Apple ID, users can use Control Center to put Apple TV to sleep.
