AppleTV Show Resume Feature

Unless I'm missing something, I am unable to find a way to resume a show that I've had to pause part way through. It's very frustrating to have to restart a show or soccer game and fast forward 1/2 way or even further to continue watching. Anything I'm missing?

Partially watched content should be listed in the Up Next row, with a progress indicator line.

Either the app isn’t saving your progress as account data properly (online), or something is amiss with your account itself.


  1. Try to sign out for the Apple TV app, then sign in again.
  2. Else contact Apple Support for further assistance [1].
