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 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.

All the time. Shame to admit but that's the only way to not distract me nowadays 😵‍💫 unless I REALLY like something, I always end up on my phone when I watch on TV
 
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"

Finally. Took them long enough. I get ATV+ through T Mobile but i would probably pay for it. This might help expand the subscriber base.

First, Apple Music. Now Apple TV+

In terms of Apple services, soon, iMessage and FaceTime [initiating a call] will be the only reasons to continue using an iPhone...

BlueBubbles takes care of iMessage. So only FaceTime initiation remains.

And when no Apple TV+ Android app gets released this week, we'll get a Sunday post telling us "Apple to Release Apple TV+ Android App As Early As This Week"

and if we get nothing by the end of next week, we'll get a story telling us "Apple Should Release Apple TV+ Android App By Next Week"
