Apple has expanded the reach of its streaming service by launching the Apple TV app on Android phones. Previously limited to Apple devices and Android TV, Apple TV+ content, along with the Apple TV app itself and MLS Season Pass, is now accessible to a wider audience.
Android users can download the Apple TV app from the Google Play Store. New users can sign up for a 7-day free trial directly within the app. Apple has designed the app with Google’s Material Design principles in mind, ensuring a consistent look and feel across various Android devices.
The app is compatible with devices running Android 10 or later. Content and account information will sync across different devices, allowing users to seamlessly switch between an Apple TV and an Android phone, for example. The app functions over both WiFi and cellular connections and supports offline viewing through content downloads.
Apple TV+ offers a range of original films, including titles like Wolfs, The Instigators, The Family Plan, Killers of the Flower Moon, and CODA. The service also features popular TV shows such as Severance, Slow Horses, The Morning Show, Presumed Innocent, Shrinking, Hijack, Loot, Palm Royale, Masters of the Air, and Ted Lasso.
While Apple TV has been available on Android TV devices for some time, this marks the first time the app has been released for Android phones and tablets. The Apple TV app for Android is now available globally as a free download.
