My Apple TV keeps displaying a notification that it detects my airpods nearby when I have them in for my phone while my kid watches TV. How can I disable this? I never use my airpods with my Apple TV, so I never want it to do this.
Apple TV 4K, tvOS 14
There is an on|off setting for that.
Settings﹥Remotes and Devices﹥Bluetooth﹥Suggest Nearby AirPods﹥On|Off.
