Key Challenges

  1. One of the main challenges was the absence of feature parity between the Set Top Box and tvOS app. This means that certain features that were available on the Set Top Box were not available on the tvOS app.

  2. Another challenge we faced was the limited functionality of the Apple TV Remote. It did not allow for the same inputs as the remote for the Set Top Box. For instance, entering a channel number via the numpad was not possible using the Apple TV Remote.

  3. In addition, we wanted to optimize the app's design specifically for tvOS to minimize development efforts and ensure optimal app performance.
