Apple is always surprised that non-Apple devices exist.

See: the permanent undismissable red icon to "finish setting up your Apple TV with your iPhone"

Apple can't control non-Apple devices. They can only control their own. So this makes perfect sense.

  • They could control their own Apple TVs to allow that dialogue to be dismissed via the TV controls.

    • Agreed, but why not just finishing setting it up? Or do people own Apple TVs without iPhones? That never occurred to me since a large part of the value prop is phone integration
