Why? What happens that gets you to want to restart? Please describe the symptoms.

Restart the box, or just the app?


A1842, A2843

A1842 is Apple TV 4K (1st generation) (2017)

A2843 is Apple TV 4K (3rd generation) (2022, latest model), not Generation 4.

‘4th generation’ is often used for the last non-4K model (A1625: 2015).
