Apple to Launch Apple TV+ on Android Phones [Report]

Apple is planning to bring its Apple TV+ service to Android phones for the first time, according to a new report from Bloomberg.

The company will unveil an Android app for TV+ as early as Wednesday, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the move isn't yet public. Apple TV+, which launched in 2019, had been reserved for the company's own operating system and third-party TV platforms like Roku. The move marks the rare occasion when Apple is offering services on Google's Android, its biggest competitor in smartphone software. Though Apple does provide its Music service as an Android app, it typically tries to keep customers within the bounds of its own product ecosystem.

Expanding Apple TV+ to Android could help the streaming service attract more subscribers. Apple lags well behind competitors like Netflix and Disney in both viewership and content library size, but it does offer exclusives such as MLS Season Pass, which allows fans to watch Major League Soccer matches.


Currently, Apple TV+ costs $9.99 per month and includes a seven-day free trial. You can also get a one-month free trial with an Apple One subscription or a three-month free trial with the purchase of an Apple device.
