Exciting News: Apple TV App Now Available on Android Devices
For those who have been missing out on Apple TV due to their Android devices, there is fantastic news. As of today, the Apple TV app has officially launched on a variety of Android smartphones and tablets, including Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy models. Users can now easily access Apple TV+ and purchase the Major League Soccer (MLS) Season Pass.
This is a welcome development for fans of shows like Severance. Apple aims to make the registration process straightforward for Android users. A recent announcement indicated that subscriptions can now be completed using a Google Play account, eliminating the need for a separate email registration.
However, it’s important to note that currently, the app does not support renting or purchasing films on Android devices. On the positive side, the app boasts optimization for foldable smartphones.
While Android devices are not the first platforms to gain Apple TV access—options like the PlayStation 5 have been usable for some time—this expanded cross-platform compatibility should greatly enhance mobile viewing options. Previously, Apple TV was available for Android TV, but now all Android devices enjoy access to the app.
In addition to Severance, which is now in its second season, Apple TV+ features a range of other hit series such as the comedy Ted Lasso, the sci-fi thriller Silo, alongside acclaimed films including Killers of the Flower Moon and Coda. Fans of gaming will appreciate the humorous take on the industry found in Mythic Quest, created by many of the minds behind the beloved show It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. For sports enthusiasts, Apple TV+ offers free access to Friday Night Baseball and Sunday Night Soccer.
The MLS Season Pass is available as a standalone subscription, allowing fans to catch every match in the league without blackouts, unlike the selective coverage on Sunday Night Soccer. Additionally, subscribers can enjoy exclusive features like post-match analysis, highlight reels, and player interviews. With the league’s 30th season set to launch on February 22, this announcement aligns perfectly with the upcoming festivities.
Like users on Apple devices, Android users can start with a seven-day free trial of Apple TV+ upon downloading the app. There are also a variety of enticing promotional offers that come and go frequently. A standard subscription costs $10 per month, or if bundled with an Apple One plan, it’s priced at $19.95 per month. The MLS Season Pass can be subscribed to separately for $15 per month, or $13 per month when paired with an Apple TV+ subscription.
