Why does my Apple TV reinstall apps after I delete them? This has been happening randomly for the past several months. It is quite annoying to have to delete them every time it does this. I just turned off “Automatically Install Apps” from settings but that seems to be for apps that’s I install on my other devices.

If you have multiple Apple TV devices and if you have One Home Screen activated, then the home screens of all these devices will be synced, including for ‘missing’ apps. Could that be it?
‘Automatically Install Apps’ would install new apps that are available for Apple TV and have been recently installed on any of your other devices, as listed through your App Store account. It would not re-install deleted apps.
Previously gotten and deleted apps are listed in the App Store app, under Purchased﹥Not on this TV, and can be easily re-installed (without further authentication).

Yes, all that would be located on Apple TV (4th generation or later), tvOS 15.
Is this located on the Apple TV itself? If so, I cannot find it.
