SplitFire AI for Apple TV Public Beta

SplitFire AI is now available in public beta for Apple TV. If you practice with backing tracks in a living room, home studio, or teaching space, the bigger screen makes it easier to follow the track, lyrics, and controls from a distance.

What the Apple TV app does

SplitFire AI for Apple TV brings your practice setup to the TV. You can control playback with the Siri Remote or your iPhone and keep your track information visible without having to look down at a phone or laptop.

Why use SplitFire AI on Apple TV?

• Full-screen playback with clear progress and controls
• Easy viewing from across the room
• Simple navigation with the Siri Remote or your iPhone
• Audio through your TV or connected speakers
• Lyrics and chord displays when available
• A cleaner setup for practice, rehearsals, and teaching

Teaching

Jam sessions

Let multiple musicians follow the same track without crowding around a smaller screen.

Performance prep

Rehearse with setlists, arrangements, and track details in a format that is easy to see.

Feedback that helps most

If you try the beta, we would especially like to hear:

• Whether the interface is comfortable to view from your usual practice distance
• How navigation feels with the Siri Remote

• Any bugs or performance issues on your Apple TV model

• Multi-room audio support
• Additional display and dark mode refinements
