I am trying to play SongPop party on my Apple TV and I am unable to select an answer no matter what I do I can not scroll through the choices to select the correct answer. Any suggestions or has anyone else have this issue?

Hi Dkuscher,


Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're having some trouble with a third-party app for Apple TV, correct? If so, we would love to help. If this is the only app that you're having this issue with, it is likely related to that specific app. We would first recommend checking for updates for the app, then following the steps below to get help from the developer.

This is not a bug, it’s intended behavior, even if it’s counterintuitive and unlike how most other apps and games work.


You don’t choose your answer by selecting it directly on the screen but by swiping on your Apple TV remote’s touch pad in the direction of the answer. If your choice is to the left, you swipe left, if’s it’s the bottom one, you swipe down etc.


This way, if you’re playing local multiplayer, your opponents won’t be able to see your choice, even if they look at the TV screen, until the correct answer is revealed.


Took me a little while to figure out too, but it kind of makes sense. The app should communicate this way of control much more clearly.
