Additional tabs appear in Control Center on Apple TV 4K depending on which features are currently active. These tab icons show what each tab is for. For example, if music is playing, you can access controls in the Now Playing tab.

The profile icon lets you switch the profile or add a new profile, while another icon is there to open the general settings tab. Others open FaceTime controls, open SharePlay controls, answer an incoming FaceTime video call, or open controls for connected headphones.
