There is no Apple TV icon on my Apple TV (little black box) home screen. Why?

Hi - I have an Apple TV box connected to my Tv and the home screen does not show an Apple TV + icon, nor does there seem to be any way to get one - what am I doing wrong?

Your model doesn’t have it, if it’s a 2nd Gen and it’s not possible to update it where it will.

If it’s a 3rd Gen, it can be updated to get the app.
