I am trying to develope for Apple TV. I have xCode running on Latest OSX. I just updated my gen 4 Apple tv to latest OS.

But the Apple tv is attached to my TV across the room. I do not have a USB long enough, and I don't feel like moving closer.

Ideally, I would like to be able to deploy apps for development over the air.

I figured that if my Mac can use the AppleTV for an extended TV, then perhaps I can push apps there as well.


So I am trying to ditch my USB-C cable. Is this a posibility? future IDea perhaps?

thanks

As far as i know even developing on all apple devices thru the Xcode need to be connected using the usb cable, for all devices iPhone/iPad and so it would be the same on appleTV but as a developr i do have a trick that I finish the hard coding work totally using the AppleTV simulator and final test will be on the Real appleTV Device.

This save me from draging the cable all the time i make the coding.

How will this work with the new "AppleTV 4k" - which does not have a USB-C Port in the back anymore?
