How to Turn Off Your Apple TV

Published

There is, however, a Sleep Mode that is fairly similar to the previous one. An Apple TV in Sleep Mode will save energy and will not play any unexpected sounds. It will save battery life. It’s a good idea to set your Apple TV into Sleep Mode once you’ve finished watching it.
