Subscribe to Apple TV and Apple TV channels on iPad
In the Apple TV app , you can subscribe to Apple TV 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. 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, iPod touch, Mac, Apple TV, and supported smart TVs and streaming devices. You can also download content to watch offline on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, 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 One, Apple TV , and Apple TV channels aren’t available in all countries or regions. See the Apple Support article Availability of Apple Media Services.

Share Apple TV and Apple TV channels with family members
When you subscribe to Apple TV or Apple One, you can use Family Sharing to share Apple TV 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 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 Apple One, Apple TV , or Apple TV channels with a family group, you can cancel the subscription, leave the family group, or (if you’re the family group organizer), stop using Family Sharing.
