What is the Apple TV app on my smart TV?
An extensive streaming service on your smart TV
The Apple TV app is available on some newer smart TVs from Samsung, LG, and Sony. Via this app, you can buy, rent, and watch movies, series, and sports matches on your smart TV. It's possible that your smart TV doesn't support the Apple TV app. In this case, Apple TV, the Apple media player, can help you. Via this media player, you also have access to the Apple TV app, and you get everything out of the Apple streaming service.
Watching movies and series
On the Apple TV app, you can watch movies and series. On the home screen, the app will show personal recommendations, so you can always watch movies and series that match your taste. You can buy or rent them individually. This way, it's possible to buy 1 episode of a series, or an entire season. This allows you to choose what you watch and how much you pay every time. In the library in the app, you can see all your purchased and rented movies neatly together.
Subscribe to Apple TV channels
You can subscribe to various Apple TV channels, like HBO and Showtime, at a monthly fee. You'll have unlimited access to these channels. If you're subscribed to sports channels, you can see under the 'sport' tab which matches are on, what the current score is, and what the upcoming matches are.
Subscribe to Apple TV+
With an Apple TV+ subscription, you can watch movies and series by Apple. This service offers many movies, programs, and documentaries from all categories. If you have a subscription, these movies will appear in the Apple TV app on your smart TV automatically. This service is also available in the Apple TV app on other Apple device.
