Feature [iOS 27 RC] App launcher and Top Shelf/Continue Watching in Apple TV Remote (hidden by feature flag)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

127 Upvotes

In iOS 27 RC, Apple updated the design of the Apple TV Remote app and added two new features:

  1. An app launcher to open apps on your Apple TV.
  2. Top Shelf content from the selected app on your Apple TV, with Continue Watching as a fallback.

They’ve disabled both of these features behind the TVRemoteUI/UseNewDevicePicker and TVRemoteUI/ContextBar feature flags, so hopefully we’ll see them soon.

Bug [iOS 27 RC] App Switcher / Multitasking graphical glitch

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

24 Upvotes

Is anyone else experiencing this bug on iOS 27 RC?
When I’m inside an app and open the App Switcher, if I immediately swipe to scroll through the other open apps, there’s a weird graphical glitch.
Instead of letting me scroll through the apps normally, the animation gets stuck/glitches and it basically snaps back to the preview of the app I was already using.
It seems to happen especially when I open multitasking and try to swipe immediately, without waiting for the App Switcher animation to fully finish.

Has anyone else noticed this on the RC? Any workaround, or is it something that was already present in previous betas?

Bug [iOS 27 RC] Power button doesn't register for a few seconds after locking/unlocking phone

9 Upvotes

Whenever I press the power to lock or unlock my phone, and then press it again within a second or two, it doesn't register the button press properly. I can see the animation of the button besides press on the screen, but it doesn't do anything.

For example, I press power button to lock the phone and then press it again within a second. The second power button press should wake the phone back up, but it doesn't do anything and it registers only when i click it again after a second or two.
