How to transfer apps from ipad to apple tv

[Cbush1952]

I just bought apple tv box today an am wanting to add apps from ipad to it, mostly tv apps like Netflix and watch espn. Synced both devices during set up. If this sounds like rookie, that's because I am.

There's an App Store app within the TV menu. You can use it to install apps for your TV.

It's a bit dated now but should still be helpful:

Thank You. I found the store while setting up. I have apps on iPad I would like to transfer to tv while watching a show. Is this possible?

If the app isn't in the Apple TV App Store, you can't transfer it from the iPad to the Apple TV.

However, with some apps, you might be able to use AirPlay to view your iPad screen on your Apple TV.

This should not be necessary with Netflix and WatchESPN as they have their own dedicated Apple TV app.
