Apple Releasing Apple TV+ App for Android Smartphones Soon

Apple plans to release an Apple TV+ Android app as soon as today, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The app will allow Android smartphone and tablet users to watch ‌Apple TV‌+ content in a native app rather than having to rely on watching through a web browser.

Apple TV Plus Feature 2 Green and Blue
Apple has long offered an ‌Apple TV‌ app for iOS devices, and it also has dedicated ‌Apple TV‌ apps for various Android-based smart TVs and set-top boxes. The new ‌Apple TV‌ Android app will be installable on Android smartphones, and it is aimed at increasing ‌Apple TV‌+ subscriber numbers.

The new ‌Apple TV‌+ for Android app will join other Android apps that Apple has created, such as Apple Music and ‌Apple Music‌ Classical for Android.

‌Apple TV‌+ is priced at $9.99 per month, but new Android subscribers will be able to get a free trial.

I just see some poor new Apple software engineer, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for their dream job on their first day at Apple

"Welcome to Apple we're so glad you're here."
"What am I going to be working on? New features? Developing the OS for a secret new product?"
"You'll be writing an Android App"

I wasn’t aware Apple Music Classical was on Android. That makes the lack of a MacOS client even funnier.
