Explore Watch Now in the Apple TV app on Mac

1. Open the Apple TV app  on your Mac.

2. Click Watch Now.

   The Up Next row displays content you’ve added to Up Next, as well as content you’ve started watching but haven’t finished.

3. Scroll down to view recommended TV shows, movies, and events—including collections hand-picked by experts, categories based on your viewing history, and friends’ suggestions shared with you from the Messages app.

4. Click an item to see its rating, description, available viewing options, and purchase or rental information.

When you find what you want to watch in the Apple TV app  on your Mac, click it, then do any of the following:

• Play the item: Click Play. (The Play button is available for free content, content you’ve already purchased, or content on Apple TV channels you subscribe to.)

• Subscribe to Apple TV : Click the subscription button, then follow the onscreen instructions.

• Subscribe to an Apple TV channel: Click the subscription button, then follow the onscreen instructions.

• Buy or rent a movie or TV show: Click Buy or Rent, then select the option you want and confirm your purchase or rental. For details, see Pick a movie or TV show to watch.

• Watch a sports event marked live: Click Watch to go directly to the event, or click Add to Up Next to add it to the Up Next row for watching later. When the event is complete, it no longer appears in Up Next.

See Turn on Picture in Picture viewing.

1. While playing an MLS match or Friday Night Baseball game in the Apple TV app  on your Mac, move the pointer over the viewing area to show playback controls.

2. Select the Audio Options button in the lower-right corner, then choose an audio track option from the pop-up menu:

   • TV: Play the audio commentary from the TV broadcast.

   • Away Team’s Local Radio: Listen to the away team’s local radio broadcast while watching the game (this option is only available for Friday Night Baseball games).

   • Home Team’s Local Radio: Listen to the home team’s radio broadcast while watching the match or game.

The Up Next row displays content you’ve already started to watch or plan to watch.

• In the Watch Now pane of the Apple TV app  on your Mac, scroll to the Up Next row to see shows you’ve recently watched or added to Up Next. To see additional items, move the pointer to the beginning or end of the row, then click the left or right arrow that appears.

  Shows and movies appear in the order you’re most likely to want to watch them. For example, when a TV episode is finished, the next episode automatically appears in Up Next. And if you’ve already caught up on a show, whenever a new episode becomes available, it immediately appears in the beginning of the Up Next row.

  If you have an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV and are signed in with the same Apple ID you use for the Mac, your viewing progress and episode selection stay in sync in the Apple TV app on those devices. For example, you can start watching a show on your Mac and finish watching it on your iPad, or vice versa.
