Apple TV will soon be available for the Android users

 





Apple has planned to introduce its Apple TV App to Android users in order to expand its reach from iPhones and certain Android TV sets. This will allow android users to stream Apple TV contents from another platform. 

Apple is all set to bring Apple TV to smartphone and tablets users.  This is done to increase the reach of the platform and to engage more audiences with their content. One can access plethora of content of varying genres such as horror,  thriller, romcom, crude humor, etc. As per the latest report released by Bloomberg, Apple is hiring engineers to work on this new project. Earlier, Apple TV was only available to the iPhone users and certain Android TV users. With the developing marketing and distribution strategies, to engage more audiences and increase the overall reach, Apple TV app will soon be available to smartphone users. The app will also facilitate the users to subscribe other Apple TV channel such as HBO and Showtime so that users can enjoy unified subscription with diverse platforms.  Within the app, users can also purchase or rent movies and TV shows from the store, and access live sports content, including Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass.

Previously, Android users had to rely on the web version, tv.apple.com, to access Apple TV or the MLS Season Pass, which was quite cumbersome. A native app will be a game changer, providing a more seamless experience and enabling users to download content for offline viewing.


The Apple TV app is brimming with content, featuring Apple TV+ originals, other Apple TV channels, and a store for purchasing or renting movies and shows. It also includes Apple’s expanding sports content, like Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass.

This step aligns the Apple TV app with Apple Music, another key Apple service. Apple Music was initially launched exclusively on iOS in 2015 but became available on Android later that year. The Apple TV app, which debuted in 2019, has been confined to iPhones until now.

Apple has been broadening the availability of the Apple TV app across various platforms beyond mobile devices to attract more viewers to Apple TV+. The app is already accessible on Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, PlayStation, Xbox, Xfinity cable boxes, and more. Last year, Apple even introduced a native Windows desktop app.

Finally, Android users can rejoice as Apple expands access to the Apple TV app. This change will facilitate easier sign-ups and enjoyment of Apple TV+ and other services for non-iPhone users. However, the release timeline for the Android version remains uncertain. If Apple has only recently begun development, it may take a while before the app becomes available.

“The one where I lost a FRIEND”

  “ So no one told you life was gonna be this way, Your job is a joke, you're broke, Your love life is D.O.A, It's like you're always stuck in second gear, When it hasn't been your day, your week your month, Or even your year… but…. I'll be there for you, When the rain starts to pour, I'll be there for you, Like I've been there before, I'll be there for you, Cause you're there for me too” The song might sound familiar to lot many, and for those who don't know what I'm talking about will understand in few minutes, just hang in there… The story dates back to 2022, when I was all alone and the darkness in my mind hovering over my intrusive thoughts. I was surviving on anti-depressants and multiple therapies since last couple of years. Wandering through the browsers and social media, i discovered something I didn't knew I needed. It was the sitcom series F.R.I.E.N.D.S, I know it's childish but guess what!!! I bought yearly Netflix subscri...
