When you need to type something on your Apple TV, Apple gives you a convenient way to do so using your iPhone or iPad . But if you want to stop receiving notifications for this, you can turn off the feature.
About the Apple TV Keyboard Notification
Whenever your Apple TV believes you want to type something, like a password for parental controls or a search term in the App Store, you’ll see the keyboard input notification automatically pop up on your iOS device.
Note : You’ll only see the notification if you’re signed into both devices with the same Apple ID and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled.
You then tap the notification on your Home or Lock screen. When the text input box appears, use your iPhone’s keyboard to enter the text. You’ll see it displayed in the text field on your Apple TV as you type.
While convenient, it can be distracting or unnecessary if you prefer to enter text using your Apple TV Remote or Siri Remote .
