I hate games except for Solitaire and Mahjong. But I saw this app called Bowling Central. So if you have a black box called Apple TV where you can watch Netflix movies and other programs, you’re in luck. This app is the newest concept using the Apple TV to simulate real live bowling. Here’s how it works: you download the app, turn on the TV with the Apple TV screen on, turn on Wi-Fi on your iPhone, swipe up from the bottom of your iPhone screen and a menu appears. Touch AirPlay and choose Apple TV and mirroring. Open up the bowling app. Just stand in front of your TV, holding your iPhone out front, and swipe forward like you have a bowling ball in your hand, then watch it go down the lane for either a strike or a gutter ball. Watch more games and utilities using the Apple TV box.
