Apple has finally released tvOS 15.4 and HomePod 15.4 to all users. After a minor update in 15.3, this one is packed with new features for Apple TV and HomePod users.
One of the biggest improvements HomePod and Apple TV owners will notice is that Apple has added a clever way to log into pesky proprietary Wi-Fi networks on these products. 
According to Apple, tvOS 15.4 and HomePod 15.4 add support for forced Wi-Fi networks, which means you can use your iPhone or iPad to connect your Apple TV and HomePod to networks that require an extra login step . The company explained in the release notes:
Dedicated Wi-Fi network support on tvOS allows you to use your iPhone or iPad to connect your Apple TV to a network that requires an extra sign-in step, such as a hotel or dorm room.
The Apple TV video player on tvOS 15.4 now has an “Up Next” queue that can be viewed from the “Now Playing” screen. From there, users can select what they add to their Up Next queue. With just one tap, the app will start playing the movie or series of your choice. This way, you don't have to go back to the Apple TV app's home screen to find the Up Next section and select something else.
After removing the Tap to Navigate feature in mid-August 2021, Apple is also bringing it back with physical and motor options. Additionally, the company has improved spatial audio controls with tvOS 15.4.
tvOS 15.4 and HomePod 15.4 are both getting a new non-binary US Siri voice. In addition to this, HomePod users in the Netherlands can take advantage of Dutch voice recognition.
The company also released iOS 15.4, iPadOS 15.4, macOS Monterey 12.3, and watchOS 8.5 to all users.
