You're not alone. I really don't understand what Apple is trying to achieve with the TV app and TV+, along with whatever else they've shoved in there. Seems like a hot mess.

I miss the "Videos" app, where I could play the videos I synced or downloaded onto my iPhone/iPad, and didn't have to wade through all of this confusing convoluted crap.
How infirm are you that three touches with a finger gets you to downloaded movies is so difficult?
 
By the time I look at what is available and finally pick something to watch I'm tired and go to bed.

If Apple would just put up more educational things on that :apple:TV+ thing, maybe also scientific things explained by researchers to 'civilians' about what they do and why they do it.
Imagine showing fruits about research into brain damage and such...heck just things that contribute to society other than Game of Thrones or new movies such as the Lion King. I'd subscribe right away if it wasn't about..."a new streaming service with original stories from the most creative minds in TV and film".

In the end; I still don't understand why someone would want to listen to those (maybe cliché) stories about what the favourite book of an actor is? He just does his job (playing in a movie) and eats, sleeps and works like any of us.
I'm the worst possible target-group for this whole ordeal, I'm still convinced of that. 100% wasted effort to just keep up appearances with what's hot and happening now. Actually I'm getting bored right now writing this about that.


Just my 'creative mind' without a story on this subject about stories. o_O

The TV app is great for tracking all your shows and movies you’ve watched on Apple TV or your iOS device. However the TV+ makes no sense to me whatsoever

Infirm? No. Pissed-off and frustrated? Extremely. Consuming media I already own and buying media or having it recommended to me (AKA, shoved in my face) are two mutually exclusive activities, IMO.
