Apple's upcoming tvOS 27.2 update introduces a 'Shuffle' option that cycles through all screen saver categories instead of restricting users to one. It also adds ASL and BSL sign language toggles in the Apple TV app's player controls for select titles, plus the ability to manually curate which Photos library content appears in Memories, Slideshows, or Portraits screen savers.
