After updating to tvOS 17.0 (21J354) on my AppleTV (model 1625 64GB) I'm not seeing a Facetime app or any reference to it on the What's New splashpage. Is it somehow a separate download or have I missed something?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

It needs to be the most recent model, the 1625 is not compatible with the FT app.

FaceTime on Apple TV requires 2nd gen (A2169) 4K ATV or 3rd gen (A2737 or A2843) 4K ATV to work. Older models are not compatible.

True, model A1625 is not compatible, but both gen 2 and 3 of the ATV4K are compatible.
