Apple has officially launched the Apple TV app on Android devices From today you can download the app from Google Play Store MLS Seasonal Passes are also supported through Google Play’s billing system
As of today (February 12), Apple’s TV app will be available to download from the Google Play Store, giving Android customers a very welcome surprise.
The app brings all the same good features that iOS users will be familiar with as access to Apple TV+ and MLS seasonal passes, and is also available in over 100 regions globally, including the US, UK and Australia.
This means you can sign up or sign up for the Apple TV+ and the MLS season pass through the app, just as you would on any iOS device. But be aware that your device (whether it is a phone, tablet or folding) must support Android 10 or later to use it, especially to make sure it works properly with Google TV room experience.
Don’t have an Apple TV+ account? It’s not a problem because you can sign up for an Apple TV+ FREE SAMPLE to try the app for seven days before signing up for a subscription.

Although the Apple TV app is optimized for Android, a lot of the same big features are probably still here, including the opportunity to watch all the movies and shows you are currently watching different devices in a place under the ‘Continue See’ section. You still find your ‘watchlist’ of hidden movies and show that you have saved to watch in the future.
The website looks pretty much the same as it does on any iOS device, with multiple rows of grouped content to create collections based on whether a movie or show is new, trending, the most viewed or available for stream now. A dedicated section called ‘Must See Hits’ on Apple TV+ is likely to replace the existing’ for you ‘section’ that most iOS users see. Most notable, the ‘Store’ tab is missing at the bottom of the app because the iTunes store content will not be made available.
This small change in the categorization of its content is one of our greatest indications that Apple is pursuing this Android roll -out to attract new customers to its streaming service and it makes a lot of sense when you consider it having it Minimum subscriber base of all the best streaming services.
