Latest tvOS 18.2 Beta Adds Snoopy Screen Savers

The third beta of tvOS 18.2 that Apple provided to developers today adds a selection of new Snoopy screen savers that can be set as an alternative to the aerial, memory, and portrait screen saver options.

Snoopy Apple TV Screen Saver
Apple first announced the Snoopy screen savers way back in June when tvOS 18 was first unveiled, but there had been no sign of them since then. With tvOS 18.2, Snoopy fans will finally be able to set Snoopy as their screen saver.

Apple has an existing partnership with Peanuts, and there is already a Snoopy watch face available on the Apple Watch. Peanut specials and classic episodes are also available on Apple TV+.

Only for the new Apple TV. The original 4K doesn’t have these.
Are you serious? Like for real?

Holy wow this stupid, even for Apple’s typical “not supported on older hardware” nonsense.

Maybe I’m way off the mark here, but Snoopy is just Boomer humor. No one born after 1985 is going to know what Snoopy is or care about it, other than that old cartoon their grandma made them watch once.
They should make some Snoop Dogg screen savers.

Apple "Books" is a steaming pile of ****... but look New Emojis , New Screen savers.

Apple keeps forcing me more and more away from their ecosystem.
I have 2012 Mac Mini running OSX server... moving to RPi / Linux
I have Airport base stations ... moving to Grandstream
I have some "Home" devices ... moving to Zigbee
I use iTunes for streaming home movies ... moving to Jellyfin

All of my other Apple devices still work, when they die I will assess what I replace them with, but I do not see me buying any Apple stuff for the next 4 years or so. They are tools, not fashion items.
