Apple TV owners are getting major update.

During a press event in Cupertino on Monday, Apple announced the latest version of tvOS, which is available now. The updated Apple TV software adds new voice search, dictation and support for Apple's Live Photos.

While the Apple TV has had support for Siri, lack of voice search has been a sore spot for users. Now, Apple is fixing that with the ability to use Siri to search the App Store with your voice as well as dictate username and password information.

The update also adds support for iCloud Photo libraries and Apple's Live Photos so you can access more of your photos from the Apple TV. Since unveiling the App Store for the Apple TV last year, developers have created more than 5,000 Apple TV apps, the company said. To help keep them organized, Apple is adding support for folders to the Apple TV interface.
