Your app should switch between a) and b) basing on where player is in your game. b) letting your app respond to it’s clicks (mapped to button “Pause” / joystick button 0), when .Remote.allowExitToHome is false.a) returning to system home screen (if .Remote.allowExitToHome is true).Long push of it will invoke task switcher and you can’t override this behavior. Menu button has special behavior on this device.Remote touch area click is mapped to button “A” (which is then mapped to joystick button 14).Pause/Play button on remote is mapped to button “X” (which is then mapped to joystick button 15).is derived from gravity vector thus lacks rotation around axis parallel to gravity vector. Unfortunately there is no dedicated accelerometer API on tvOS SDK. Input.acceleration internally is derived from gyroscope API and might have some instabilities. Remote acceleration and gyroscope are mapped accordingly to Input.acceleration and Input.gyro.

Apple TV Remote touch area is mapped to both Input.touches (Touch.type will be set to “Indirect” and will be ignored by Unity GUI) and usual Joystick Input API like Input.GetAxis(“Horizontal”).

Use the mappings written in this manual while setting up your custom action mappings in the Unity Editor Edit->Project Settings->Input. If you haven’t yet added iOS Game Controller support to your game, you should check the dedicated MFi Game Controller page.

Here are technical details on how to access specific TV Remote features: It’s recommended to experiment a bit with various schemes when porting game to tvOS. Some games would benefit treating it as traditional game controller with one analog axis and extra action button, while others would benefit using accelerometer for steering purposes. Usually each game needs slight adjustment of input scheme to leverage unique Apple TV Remote input features. TV Remote input is minimally processed by Unity and mostly routed to corresponding Unity APIs. You can estimate Bitcode size by analyzing LLVM sections in your executable with otool -l.Īpple TV Remote (Siri Remote) serves as multipurpose input device working both as traditional menu navigation controller, game controller, gyro and acceleration sensor and as touch gesture device. This added size is not accounted for distribution size, as it will be stripped by App Store servers. Note that Bitcode is included with tvOS builds, which will add ~130 MB to your executables. For On Demand Resources support in Unity please refer to section below.

If your game takes more than 200 MB on disk, you should break it into smaller parts and use On Demand Resources.

TVOS EMULATOR MAC UPDATE

Don’t forget to reach plugin providers and ask them to update plugins. We recommend you to create separate branch of your game and do porting to Apple TV there. Many of iOS plugins won’t be compatible with Apple TV, because it supports only subset of iOS frameworks.It’s recommended to create empty tvOS app with Xcode to test if provisioning works correctly.

Setup provisioning for this device the same way as for iOS devices.

You need 4th generation Apple TV device (don’t forget to get USB C USB 3.0 cable, which is not included with consumer package).This manual page is primarely aimed at helping transitioning from iOS to tvOS. While deploying already pre-existent mobile game on tvOS is one click away, game content often needs adapted to play nicely with new input controls or the fact that it will be played on big screen TV. Apple TV platform builds on foundation of iOS platform and at the same time brings new paradagims and challenges for game developers.
