The Library screen in the Apple TV app on Apple TV 4K includes your purchases and rentals, organized by category. You can browse the movies and TV shows you’ve purchased or rented, or filter by category or genre.
If you’ve set up Family Sharing, your other family members’ purchases appear in your library as well. Switching to someone else’s collection is easy, too. Movies play right from there, and TV shows list their available episodes.

Browse your library
- Go to the Apple TV app on Apple TV 4K.
- Open the sidebar and then select Library.
- Browse movies and TV shows you’ve purchased or rented, or select a category or genre in the Library sidebar to filter items.
- Select a movie to play it, or select a TV show to see available episodes.
