Listen Later

Mikah Sargent reveals a powerful but often overlooked calibration tool that automatically adjusts your TV's color balance for optimal picture quality. This step-by-step demonstration shows exactly how to access and use this game-changing feature that most Apple TV owners never know exists.

  • Accessing the Settings - Navigate to Settings > Video and Audio > Calibration > Color Balance
  • Prerequisites and Setup - Requires iPhone with Face ID, iOS 14.5 or later, and avoid vivid or dynamic picture modes during calibration
  • Step-by-Step Calibration Process - Detailed walkthrough of bringing iPhone close to TV, receiving notification, entering authentication code, and positioning phone against screen
  • Results and Implementation - Review of "original" vs "balanced" options and selecting the improved color profile for ongoing use
  • Limitations and Compatibility - Discussion of why this feature won't work with projector setups due to positioning constraints, but works with standard televisions

    • Host: Mikah Sargent
