Along with iOS 8 Today, Apple also released an update for Apple TV that brings several new icons, the Beats Music channel, and new features related to iOS 8.

Several icons on Apple TV have received new colors and the font has also been changed, thus Apple continues to bring the interface in Apple TV closer to the look of iOS 7/8. Related to this is support for features such as Family Sharing and iCloud Photo Sharing, which are new for iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite.

With Family Sharing, up to six family members using a single credit card can share content from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes across all iCloud-enabled devices, now including Apple TV. Photos, videos, calendars, reminders and more can also be shared.

Apple has also added the Beats Music channel to Apple TV, so users can now log in to accounts in the streaming music service via the TV set and listen to songs on Apple TV.

However, the aforementioned changes only appear in the latest third-generation Apple TV.
