Subscribe to Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, and Apple TV channels on iPad
In the Apple TV app , you can subscribe to Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, and Apple TV channels. Apple TV is a subscription streaming service featuring Apple Originals—award-winning series, compelling dramas, groundbreaking documentaries, kids’ entertainment, comedies, and more—with new items added every month.
MLS Season Pass is a subscription streaming service featuring every match of the Major League Soccer season, all in one place, with consistent match times, and no blackouts.
Apple TV channels let you easily subscribe to just the channels you watch—like Paramount , Showtime, and more.
A subscription gives you access to content on demand on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and supported smart TVs and streaming devices. You can also download content to watch offline on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
You can choose to bundle your Apple TV subscription with other Apple services by subscribing to Apple One. See the Apple Support article Bundle Apple subscriptions with Apple One.
Note: Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, Apple TV channels, and Apple One aren’t available in all countries or regions. See the Apple Support article Availability of Apple Media Services. MLS Season Pass is available on iPadOS 16.2 or later.
Subscribe to Apple TV
Tap Originals in the sidebar, then tap the subscription button.
Review the free trial (if eligible) and subscription details, then follow the onscreen instructions.
Subscribe to MLS Season Pass
Tap Watch Now in the sidebar, scroll down to the Channels row, then tap MLS Season Pass.
Tap the subscription button.
Review the subscription details, tap a subscription option, then follow the onscreen instructions.
Subscribe to Apple TV channels
You can subscribe to premium channels such as Paramount and Showtime, all in one place. If you use Family Sharing, up to five other family members can share the subscription for no additional charge.
Tap Watch Now in the sidebar, scroll down to the Channels row, then tap a channel.
Tap the subscription button, review the free trial (if eligible) and subscription details, then follow the onscreen instructions.
Change or cancel your subscriptions to Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, or Apple TV channels
In the sidebar, tap your picture or initials at the bottom left.

Share Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, and Apple TV channels with family members
When you subscribe to Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, Apple TV channels, or Apple One, you can use Family Sharing to share your subscriptions with up to five other family members. Your family group members don’t need to do anything—a shared subscription is available to them the first time they open the Apple TV app after your subscription begins.
If you join a family group that subscribes to Apple TV , MLS Season Pass, Apple TV channels, or Apple One, and you already subscribe, your subscription isn’t renewed on your next billing date; instead, you use the group’s subscription. If you join a family group that doesn’t subscribe, the group uses your subscription.
Note: To stop sharing your subscription with a family group, you can cancel the subscription, leave or remove a member from a Family Sharing group, or (if you’re the family group organizer), stop using Family Sharing.
