Before you choose
Confirm the current plan, features and renewal terms on the official website.
A subscription centered on originals
Apple TV provides Apple Original series and films through the Apple TV app and supported web viewing. Browse the current catalog for dramas, comedies, documentaries and family programming rather than assuming it includes everything sold inside the app.
The Apple TV app also presents separate purchases, rentals and channel subscriptions. Those are distinct from the Apple TV subscription and can carry additional charges.
Watch across your devices
The subscription works on supported Apple and non-Apple devices, including selected smart televisions and streaming players. Family Sharing can allow eligible family members to use the subscription with their own accounts under Apple’s rules.
Before signing up for a particular program, check that it is available in your region and included in the subscription. Test captions, audio options and playback on the actual television or mobile device you expect to use.
Compare trial and device offers
Eligible new subscribers can receive a seven-day trial. Some qualifying devices or bundles provide a different promotion, with their own redemption window and account requirements. Review the offer shown after signing in rather than assuming promotions can be combined.
A paid subscription follows the introductory period unless canceled under the displayed terms. Check the recurring amount and the billing provider; a bundle may be managed differently from a standalone subscription.
Open the correct account
Use the official Apple TV page to compare the available subscription and promotional options. Sign in with your Apple Account and review the checkout summary before activating the offer.
Install or open the Apple TV app, locate the subscription’s catalog and add a few titles to your list. Confirm your account’s renewal date and any Family Sharing setup. Keep rentals and optional channel subscriptions separate when reviewing the total cost.
