Special features

With Apple TV+ streaming service, you can enjoy content across multiple devices including smart TVs, Mac devices, and even game consoles. Apple TV+ is compatible with platforms such as Amazon Fire TV, Sony PlayStation, Xbox, or Roku.

It’s very easy to browse for interesting TV shows or movies in the app, with one swipe and the content is ad-free. Moreover, the titles are nicely displayed in a layout that seems less clustered than what you get with rival services such as Netflix. Apple TV+ features the same minimalistic aesthetic Apple has gotten us used to. However, there is no search bar tool to ease your quest.

Apple TV+ also supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision if you’re streaming content on Apple devices, so rest assured you can enjoy outstanding sound quality.

In-built accessibility features for audio descriptions, closed captioning, or subtitles are also available if you’re using Apple devices. You can use the VoiceOver function to customize voice settings, speech rates, or verbosity based on your preferences. Braille support is also available, as well as customizable fonts, or backgrounds.

Catalog

Apple TV + focuses solely on original Apple content, which includes movies, TV shows, documentaries, shorts series and specials delivered in seamless 4K HDR quality. The catalog has somewhere around 70+ titles.

Some of the most popular TV shows and movies include:

Global coverage

You can use AppleTV+ streaming service in more than 100 countries worldwide. The content you can access is the same regardless of your location.

Account

If you have to take a break from watching your favorite series on Apple TV+, you’ll be able to pick up where you left off. Plus, you can also download the content and watch it offline on any supported device or web browser.

A paid account can be used simultaneously by 6 persons. You can enable multiple users to access your account via Family Sharing. You can allow anyone to join your Apple TV+ family and access your account by accepting their invitation.

Price

Apple TV+ streaming service is quite affordable as subscription only costs $4.99 per month. However, although cheaper than other competitors such as Netflix and Disney+, Apple TV+ offers fewer titles. There is also a 7-days free trial that enables you to enjoy all the available content.

Customer support

If you have a paid Apple TV+ subscription, you can contact the company’s customer support department via phone or live chat. According to their website, the wait time is under 2 minutes. A knowledge base and a community forum are also available.

Account cancellation & money back

You can easily cancel your Apple TV+ subscription at any time from your account settings by accessing the Subscriptions section and choosing the ‘Cancel Subscription’ option. You can’t get a refund after the cancellation, but you’ll be able to use your account until the end of the term.

Summary

Apple TV+ offers a good selection of original titles. However, their number can’t compare with what you get from rivals like Netflix. Nonetheless, given its cheap price tag and the numerous supported devices, Apple TV+ is worth the money.
