Apple TV can actually install apps!

On October 4, 2010, in Apple, Gadgets, Hacks, by Zaib

According to a developer named Steve Troughton-Smith the new Apple TV has set up to install apps. He has confirmed this by using iPhone Explorer (image above). First he figured out that there is not such interface that could help in running the installed app because Apple has not allowed us to but we can hope that someone else would do that for us (hint: hackers).

Here are the tweets from the developer

“You can definitely add an AppleTV to the provisioning portal, and if you give an app a UIDeviceFamily of 3 it will install on it when signed”

“The application definitely installs on the AppleTV, I used iPhone Explorer to verify”

“So, not only is the AppleTV set up for installing applications (of UIDeviceFamily 3), but the installation actually works”
