Apple launched its streaming platform in 2019, Apple TV+, offering viewers around the world a unique collection of original movies and TV shows. Unlike Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+ focuses only on exclusive content, making its shows and movies fresh and different.
The platform features a range of popular shows that have won praise and loyal fans. Some highlights include Silo, Ted Lasso, Shrinking, Bad Sisters, Fly Me to the Moon, Clooney Pitt Wolfs and many more.
Apple TV+ is easy to access on many devices. You can watch it on iPhones, iPads, Macs, smart TVs, gaming consoles, or streaming devices like Roku, Android TV, and Amazon Fire TV.
The service comes with a monthly subscription, but Apple often includes free trials or offers free access for a few months when you buy a new Apple device. Most new Apple products come with a three-month free subscription, letting users explore the platform’s content without any extra cost.
With its exclusive, high-quality content and user-friendly access, Apple TV+ has quickly become a favorite among streaming fans. Whether you’re in the mood for a touching comedy, a thrilling drama, or something fresh and creative, Apple TV+ has plenty to offer.
