How to find the UDID on the fourth generation Apple TV

Apple TV 4

Surely the vast majority of us who have a XNUMXth generation Apple TV we are very happy with the device. With the last set-top box from the apple we can do almost anything and all without the need to jailbreak it, but there are still things that are not possible from the same device, such as the possibility of taking screenshots that I miss so much. Nor can we see the UDID (unique identifier) ​​of the device, but we can if we connect it to a computer.

Why do we want to find out what the UDID of a device is? For example, if we want someone to register our device for us to be able to install betas, we will need to provide our UDID, but that does not apply to Apple TV at this time. In any case, it is good to know where this number is, because of what could happen. In this post we will teach you how to see the UDID of your Apple TV 4.

Where is the UDID of the Apple TV 4?

As I mentioned above, in order to see the UDID of the Apple TV 4 we will have to connect it to a computer, but I will detail the steps so that there are no confusion:

  1. We connect the Apple TV to a power outlet.
  2. Now we connect it to the computer with the USB-C cable.
  3. We open iTunes.
  4. We click on the drawing of the Apple TV. Find UDID Apple TV 4
  5. We click on the serial number. The UDID will appear as you can see in the following screenshot. UDID Apple TV 4

It is clear that tvOS There are still things to be polished, but this finding out the UDID is not a problem that the software is in early stages, since in iOS it cannot be seen from the same device either. The good thing about iOS is an operating system whose App Store has existed for almost 8 years and there are already applications to do everything, there being some that will allow us to know almost any data on an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad without the need to connect it to a computer. These types of applications will also arrive on tvOS, but we will have to have a little patience. Everything will go.
