What is your model Apple TV? Identify your Apple TV model - Apple Support


  1. When setting up as new, the first question would be language selection. If that was accidentally set to language to you can’t read, then you can go back using the Back button/Menu button.
  2. If your Apple TV is operational in the wrong language, then you can change it by selecting the right options without needing to read it.
    • Go to Settings ﹥First option (General)﹥16th option, icon on the left will change to a flag (Apple TV Language)﹥Select a language (listed in the current script and in their own script (Latin/English)).
    • If selecting English then do it twice, to distinguish for locality (UK/US/Canada/etc.).
