Watch up to four live channels at the same time on one screen with Multiview on AppleTV.
Important Note: If you have updated your Apple TV to tvOS 15, you may be limited to fewer than four screens when using Multiview. This is a known issue, and we're working to resolve it as quickly as possible.

I don’t see this option, will this feature be added on other devices?
This feature is currently available on Apple TV only. We intend to keep improving the Multiview experience and are currently looking into how to bring it to our other apps and supported devices.
