How to Manage Apple TV for Digital Signage at Scale

Apple TVs are increasingly being used beyond consumer applications, serving as menu boards, lobby screens, and studio displays in commercial settings. This shift necessitates a robust management system to handle the lifecycle of these devices, as they need to be enrolled, configured, locked, updated, and recovered across numerous locations without physical interaction. Apple Business Manager (ABM) facilitates initial zero-touch enrollment, getting the devices online, but subsequent fleet management requires more comprehensive tools. Traditional Apple ecosystem management tools and signage CMS platforms fall short, as they are not designed for extensive Apple TV management. Esper emerges as a solution, treating Apple TV as a primary platform, alongside Android, iOS, Linux, and Windows, offering detailed configuration, app distribution, kiosk lockdown, OS-update control, and remote recovery. This approach ensures that Apple TVs are managed effectively at scale, without the need for physical interventions, making them reliable components of commercial digital signage infrastructure.
