A Because you watched swimlane normally shows one fixed display name to every viewer. Engaging titles let you add alternate titles to the swimlane, and the TV app selects the title that matches the content the recommendation is based on. You add them in Experience Manager, in the Additional Titles field on the Setup step of the swimlane wizard.
You need edit access to the experience tree. If the swimlane opens in view-only mode, the
Additional Titles
field is disabled.
Additional titles are available only for the Recommendation swimlane types
Because you watched the content

The field must be enabled for your tenant. If
