Apple TV+ is now available on Android

Apple TV+ is now available for Android users. It offers top shows and MLS streaming.

Apple has officially launched its video streaming service, Apple TV+, for Android users. This move allows those with Android-based devices to access a wide selection of entertainment, including popular shows like Ted Lasso, Mythic Quest, Masters of the Air, Friday Night Baseball, and Major League Soccer (MLS). However, Apple notes that availability may vary depending on the region.

Android users can now subscribe to Apple TV+ and MLS through their Google Play account on Android mobile devices and Google TV. New users will receive a seven-day free trial before being charged a monthly fee. With an MLS Season Pass subscription, fans can watch every MLS match in one place without blackouts. When the new season begins on February 22, they will also have access to exclusive content, in-depth coverage, and expert analysis.

Pricing details for Android users

The Apple TV app in Singapore is now available on the Google Play Store. After the free trial, a subscription costs S$13.98 per month. Customers who purchase an Apple device will receive three months of Apple TV+ for free, after which the standard monthly rate applies.

Apple TV+ is also included in the Apple One bundle, which offers a combination of Apple services, such as iCloud, Apple Music, and Apple Arcade, in a single subscription. The Apple One plan starts at S$23.95 per month, providing an all-in-one solution for those who use multiple Apple services.

Appleโ€™s strategy in the competitive streaming market

With competition in the streaming industry growing fiercer, Appleโ€™s decision to bring its service to Android users appears to be a strategic move. This expansion comes at a time when Netflix has once again announced plans to raise its prices, though it is adding Monday Night Raw to its content library as an incentive for subscribers to stay. Meanwhile, Disney+ has been losing subscribers following its price increases.

By making Apple TV+ available to Android users, Apple is broadening its reach and aiming to attract a wider audience, regardless of their preferred device. This could help the company gain a competitive edge in an industry where pricing and content offerings significantly attract and retain subscribers.
