How to Adjust Screensaver and Sleep Timers on Apple TV

Right after I bought and set up my brand new Apple TV, I realized that it didn’t automatically go to sleep as quickly as I would have liked. Putting your Apple TV to sleep faster means you can save on your energy bills. At the same time, if you want to continue running, you are free to prolong the running state of the device. Changing the amount of time it takes for your Apple TV to go to sleep is easy.

Likewise, while the new aerial motion screensavers are great, you may find that they take too long for them to appear on screen, or may not appear fast enough. Like the sleep mode setting, your screensaver preferences are also easy to change.

How to adjust sleep settings

To adjust how long Apple TV goes to sleep after inactivity, go to the Home screen and click the button Setting application. Select overview when the application opens.

Apple’s new aerial screensaver is a great way to liven up your living room when you’re not actively using the new Apple TV.

farewell thoughts

Personally, I found that the default Start After setting meant that the screensaver took too long to appear, so I shortened it to just 5 minutes. I also thought the Apple TV took too long to sleep, so I called it down as well. As always, since the settings are available to you, customize them to your liking.
