How do I get Apple TV Plus?
Signing up for Apple TV Plus is simple, and it can be done via the web or the Apple TV app. It’s often the first thing you see when you open the Apple TV app. To get started, tap Try It Free and confirm your payment. The first seven days are free, but you will automatically be charged $4.99 a month after that.
Simply go to the Apple TV Plus website and click the Start Your Free Trial button. If you aren’t already logged in, you’ll need to log in, although the entire procedure takes less than a minute.
No matter how you join up, a pop-up will appear informing you whether you have a free year or three months to claim from a previous purchase.
Apple TV Plus vs. the competition
Apple TV Plus is part of an ever-expanding online streaming landscape. This includes the industry leader, Netflix, which has years of experience and an incredible inventory of both original and licensed content to offer.
While the service cannot compete with Netflix due to the sheer number of content, it is substantially less expensive. For example, the $4.99 subscription includes 4K video and up to six simultaneous streaming, but Netflix charges a whole $18 per month for 4K content and four concurrent streams.
Amazon Prime Video is also a significant competitor to Apple TV Plus. It also has a global audience and a slew of fantastic original shows that have won multiple Emmys. It is also frequently packaged with Amazon Prime, which is a hugely popular service among online consumers. It even supports 4K streaming for supported material, making it a solid competitor to Apple TV Plus.
Hulu might also be a good option for American users to meet their streaming needs. The base plan is slightly more expensive at $5.99 per month, but it includes advertisements. To receive ad-free broadcasts, you’ll have to bump that up to $11.99. One of the most appealing aspects of Hulu is that it is frequently packaged with other services, such as the $12.99 per month Disney Plus-Hulu-ESPN Plus bundle.
Finally, Disney Plus debuted less than two weeks after Apple TV Plus. Disney Plus isn’t available in as many countries as Apple TV Plus, Netflix, or Amazon Prime Video, but it boasts a massive library of popular material. The majority of Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars films, as well as Disney oldies, helped the service sign up nearly 50 million subscribers in its first six months of operation.
