Apple released a new software update for Apple TV and HomePod users on Wednesday evening. The company is now rolling out tvOS 16.4.1 and HomePod software 16.4.1.
These updates follow the release of iOS 16.4.1 last week, which included a handful of bug fixes and important security patches. At that time, Apple had not yet released a new software version for Apple TV or HomePod. The build number for tvOS 16.4.1 and HomePod Software 16.4.1 is 20L498. Apple's update descriptions simply state that the updates include "performance and stability improvements."
