It doesn’t really
Just a differently laid out dashboard layout of all the streaming apps you’ve either subscribed to as well as others

I use my Apple TV exclusively

@Mellowgirl not necessarily
Everyone has their preference
I’ve used one… I just prefer the layout and functionality of my Apple TV dashboard app system
