Release notes

Overview

Editorial synthesis with inline references and a source ledger when citations are available.

Release overview

tvOS 10.2.2 was released on July 19, 2017 for Apple TV (4th generation). Apple's current consumer history has no retained tvOS 10.2.2 section, leaving the security advisory as the specific first-party record.[1][2][3]

Evidence boundary

The page does not convert the absence of consumer notes into an assertion that this was security-only software. It records only what Apple's surviving version-specific sources can establish.[4][5]
