Finally broke down and got an Apple TV after my fire stick annoyed me for the last time. What are some cool features that may not be apparent right away? Anything that improves the qol on the device at all?

This is necessarily “cool” but, to me, necessary if you want the best/most accurate picture throughout apps:

Your instinct will be to accept the highest quality setting the Apple TV gives you, like 4K HDR, for example. Don’t! That will default everything to 4K HDR, even if the content is SDR. 4K SDR and match content and frame rate ON is generally accepted as the best way to mostly ensure you get SDR when you should and HDR when you should (so long as the app itself supports auto-switching.) if it doesn’t support, you can always do a one-off manual toggle.

How can you determine which apps support auto switching?
