Well, apple has assumed that everyone that uses VoiceOver uses direct
touch. I know I have never had an issue with it. Anyway, if you
insist using follow focus, the thing you will have to do when you want
to swipe up, is put the remote in navigation mode. To do this triple
tap with 2 fingers on the track pad area of the remote. Once you do
this VoiceOver should say navigation mode. Then turn it to direct
touch, and swipe up, repeat the steps to turn it off. HTH

Hello Everyone,
I updated the software on my Apple TV 4th Gen, earlier this week.
Since doing so, I cannot reliably close apps via the Apple TV remote.
1.
After updating to the latest version of Apple TV OS, with VoiceOver
enabled, Go to Settings > Accessibility.
2.
Set navigation mode to Follow Focus instead of Direct Touch. (For
some reason I have never been able to get the hang of Direct Touch,
so, I do not use it.)
3.
Now, press the Home button to go back to the home screen.
4.
Open a couple of apps and return to the Home screen.
5.
Double-press the Home button to bring up the App Switcher.
6.
Swipe to the left or right to land on an active app.
7.
Turn the Rotor to Actions.
8.
Swipe up to hear VoiceOver say, "Close App."
Okay, it at number 8 where I run into problems. I can set the Rotor
to Actions but, try as I may, single-finger (or, for that matter
double-finger) swiping up or down causes nothing to happen.
Clearly I am doing something wrong but cannot discover my error.
For the record, when the navigation method is set to Direct Touch,
closing an app is not a problem.
All replies greatly appreciated.
