Apple TV+ launch on Android devices to expand subscriber base

Good news for Android users! Apple has officially made the Apple TV+ app available for Android users on the Google Play Store. After starting with a free preview weekend, the app is now accessible to a wider audience, a move considered rare for Apple. Options for Android users interested in watching Apple TV+ were previously limited, but now they have the opportunity to enjoy popular shows like “Severance,” “Ted Lasso,” “Silo,” and “Pachinko” on their Android screens.

According to reports, Apple is investing heavily in its original content, with season two of ‘Severance’ costing $20 million per episode. The tech giant aims to boost its subscribers by expanding the availability of Apple TV+ to Android users. This strategic move is part of Apple’s evolving strategy to grow revenue for its services business, especially as it faces challenges in hardware sales, particularly from competition in China.

While Apple TV+ is making waves with its original content, like ‘Silo,’ the service is looking to compete in a crowded streaming industry where Netflix leads with over 300 million paid memberships worldwide. Although the offer of Apple TV+ on Android devices is not yet available in India, it’s clear that Apple is making moves to attract a larger subscriber base and increase its presence in the streaming market.
