Apple - Stop unknown devices trying to connect to Apple TV

You can give AirPlay a password in the settings on your Apple TV. Only with this password you can connect.

  1. Open Settings
  2. AirPlay
  3. Change 'Security' to Password
  4. Turn off 'Require Device Verification'

In tvOS 13 there is a new option which should make this easier:

Settings > Airplay and Homekit > Allow Access

Change "Also Allow Nearby to Airplay" to Off
