What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box, plug the Apple TV 4K into power and your TV's HDMI port — it powers on immediately.
- To use it fully, you'll need to connect to Wi-Fi and sign into your Apple ID (guided on-screen, takes about 5–10 minutes).
- For accessibility features like Siri voice control, captions, audio descriptions, or switch control, go to Settings > Accessibility and enable what you need — most people can do this themselves following Apple's on-screen prompts.
- If you use an external switch or alternative input device, an ATP or your school district's technology specialist can help configure Switch Control or other accessibility settings (typically 1–2 sessions).
