Private videos are listed in TV App

Hello.

Lots of my private videos taken with iPhone camera are listed in the TV App.

More than that, they are not available in my iPhone Photos App.

How can I put them back in the place they should be?


Thanks.

They have been imported to the TV App using your Mac.


You or any other person using your iPhone must have done this


Import home videos to your library

  • In the Apple TV app on your Mac, choose File > Import.
  • Locate a video file on your Mac, then click Open. Imported videos appear in the Home Videos category in the sidebar of your library.

Thank for your reply.

I've never import media into the TV app, and those files are not available on my Mac.

Another strange thing is that some of the video in the iPhone TV App marked in the lated purchase list, some in the movies list and some in the uploaded list (all are private videos taken with my iPhone).

There is no reasonable explanation for that.

If it was few videos, I could live with that. But there are more than 2000.
