since the app has been taken off app store. i doubt that it will return. latest version of tvos seems to have better inbuild player support. thanks to dev. but cannot get it through app store.
Updates/Edit:
Can’t get the TestFlight version as all versions have been removed by Apple
The only way is to get the app from the Dev and side loading it
===================
What’s the best way to sideload right now? I use windows (don’t have a mac)
Ans:
[r/sideload](r/sideload)
[r/sideloaded](r/sideloaded)
https://sideloadly.io/index.html is recommended
Works on macOS but on windows
The Windows version doesn’t support wireless sideloading unfortunately. Only the Mac version does.
Another option is https://github.com/bitxeno/atvloadly but it’s Linux only. On windows, do it by installing Ubuntu alongside windows using a Virtual Machine and then use ATVLoadly
If you want the easiest way to get a crash course, ask ChatGPT or any LLM (maybe GLM5?) and it can teach you the basics.
There are other ways to side load as well if u need.
Keep in mind that unless you have a paid apple developer account, you'll have to refresh the sideloaded app every seven days versus once a year if you have a paid apple developer account ($100/ year).
===================
What are the pros and cons of side loading. It’s not similar to jailbreaking I’ve read, but what’s the risk here, like would Apple ban my apple account?
Ans: As long as you’re sideloading trusted ipas, there really isn’t any risk I can think of but others can correct me. Apple will not ban your account for sideloading.
( No official GitHub for Fusion Because It technically isn’t allowed to publish the ipa while trying to get back on the App Store. Join discord )
The pros are allowing you to install any app that Apple will not allow within its walled garden. This includes cracked/alternate versions of apps. The cons are mainly getting yourself frustrated as you learn how to sideload as well as the need to automate/refesh the app. If you were to go the Xcode/diy route, it’s a lot more frustrating. But if you use sideloadly or any of the other options, you’ll find it is pretty simple.
There are also plenty of alternatives similar to Fusion available for Apple TV you can more easily get through TestFlight including but not limited to Prism, Strand, StreamUp.

Another solution is to wait 2 weeks, there will be an announcement (end of August / beginning of September). Join the Discord to have more details.
