The invite option is not available in my phone. Is there any specific macOS my TV4K must have?

After I was prompted to update the home in the home app I have lost the functionality to invite people to my home, I had the option before to invite but once my fiancé accepted she was prompted that I must update home before she can accept.

Apple TV 4K

From the linked article:


If you can't share control of a home



It won't hurt to update tvOS on your Apple TV4K if it isn't currently up to date.

Every prerequisites was fulfilled but still could not see or touch the physical button under home settings in my home app for sharing control, on iPhone.


So I did sign out and clear user data from my Apple TV 4K and set it up again.

I did this because of in the Apple TV 4K AirPlay and HomeKit settings the Room was not working properly, there was a text saying it’s fetching data from iCloud and will be ready within couple of minutes, waited over an quarter and then rebooted and tried again, still no room could be selected just the spinning “hourglass”.


After clearing user data and setting up my account again it started to work and I could invite (the button appeared).
