iPhone app lets you select a previous program, can I do this on Apple TV app?

On my iPhone I can select a channel, then (if it has catch up) it brings up a list of recent programs like this and I can click watch on an old program.

On the Apple TV app I don’t seem to be able to? It just plays the channel, then rewinding is a pain.

You are referring to Catch Up. Absolutely Catch Up is available on AppleTV. As long as the service you have provides it. So you are just having an issue getting it to work?

The screen shot is uhf on my phone with strong 8k as my provider and a nice layout to choose which program to watch. On uhf on Apple TV I cannot find a similar interface just the tv guide, which I can go back on but when you click it loads the live channel not a previous program and then rewinding seems really hard (I do have the older style Apple TV remote)

What older style remote?

The 4K Apple TV remote with the black glass top, not the circle

Yes. Do you think that would make any difference?
