# Creating tvOS Device Profile

Device Profiles are a quick and easy way to group the common set of policies and then apply them to multiple devices. Any changes or edits to the Device Profile are applied to all the devices in that Profile without any further steps.

In Scalefusion, a minimum of one tv OS Device Profile is mandatory to manage your Apple TV devices. Without a Device Profile, you cannot apply any policies to the device. You can create as many Device Profiles as you want, depending upon your organization's structure.

Since a tvOS Device Profile offers quite a lot of settings and policies, this document covers the basics of creating a profile and links to various settings in separate documents for easier understanding.

## Before you start

1. Complete the Configure [APNs setup](/docs/setting-up-apns-in-scalefusion).
2. Complete the [ADE/DEP setup](/docs/manage-dep-devices-using-scalefusion).
