Now, you can connect your device by ssh (port 22), which will launch dropbear (an SSHd clone) on the TV. It’s a good idea to change the default password (alpine), and/or add a host key to /var/root/.ssh/authorized_keys.

If you have multiple Apple TV devices, please register all device in step 2 and choose all device to prepare provision file in step 4.
After step 6, the script will generate an IPA file in order to install. Remember you can always deploy the IPA files using XCode, or iFunBox (Windows)
