How do you "forget" Apple TV on iDevice and Mac?

It's not possible. Airplay devices work like wifi networks: when it's needed, the iDevice scans to check what is available in range. There is no option regarding Airplay: it just appears when you are close enough to a capable device.

    Is it possible to make devices “forget” Apple TV? I have reset my Apple TV, and now it’s listed as Apple TV(2) even though its name is set to “Apple TV”.

      Basically everywhere. My Mac, iPhone and iPad, they all list this TV as Apple TV(2). I know I can rename the TV, but that's not the point. Screenshots: imgur.com/a/Iyip5
