No search feature on Apple tv

Hi, I have been watching Apple TV on my IMac and Samsung TV (using a tablet and connector). I cannot see a search feature on either TV or Mac? I just have to scroll through all of the available shows to find something to watch. I'm on the 1 year free trial after buying a new iPhone. Does that have anything to do with the way my screen is displayed? This pic shows what my screen looks like.

MacBook Air 13″, OS X 10.11

The website tv.apple.com currently does not have a search feature. Scrolling down is the way to find your Apple TV+ show/​movie of choice. When the catalog grows more, I expect that a search feature or jump list will eventually be implemented.

For a different, categorized presentation, you will need a device with the real Apple TV app. That does feature a search tab (but broader), as well as tiles-in-a-grid.
