How to Watch Apple TV on Your Television

by 

Getting Apple TV on your television is easier than you think. This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough on how to download, install, and start enjoying the Apple TV app or the Apple TV+ app on your compatible smart TV or streaming device.

Finding and Installing the Apple TV App

Your first step is to locate the Apple TV app.

  1. Access Your Device’s App Store: Navigate to the app store on your smart TV or streaming device. This might be called something slightly different depending on the brand (e.g., Google Play Store for Android TV, Amazon Appstore for Fire TV).
  2. Search for the App: Use the search function within the app store to find the “Apple TV” app or the “Apple TV+” app. Make sure you’re searching for the correct app depending on whether you want the full Apple TV experience or just the Apple TV+ streaming service.
  3. Download and Install: Once you’ve found the app, select it and choose to download and install it. The installation process may vary slightly based on your device.

Setting Up the Apple TV App

After installation, it’s time to set up the app.

  1. Launch the App: Open the newly installed Apple TV app from your device’s home screen or app list.
  2. Sign In Options: You’ll likely be presented with a couple of ways to sign in:
    • Sign In On Mobile Device: A QR code will appear on your TV screen. Use your iPhone or iPad camera to scan this code, which will then prompt you to sign in with your Apple ID on your mobile device. Alternatively, you can manually enter a code displayed on your TV at link.apple.com.
    • Sign In with Remote: Some devices allow you to directly enter your Apple ID and password using your TV remote. This option, if available, is generally more straightforward.
  3. Complete Setup: Follow the remaining on-screen prompts to finalize the setup process.

Troubleshooting and Additional Information

  • Compatibility: If you can’t find the Apple TV app, your device might not be compatible. Refer to Apple’s official support documentation for a list of compatible devices: https://support.apple.com/guide/tvplus/apda10aaed81/.
  • Account Issues: Ensure your Apple ID is properly set up for purchases. If you don’t have an Apple ID, you’ll need to create one.

Start Watching!

Once you’ve successfully installed and set up the app, you can start enjoying a wide variety of content available through Apple TV or specifically on Apple TV+. From movies and TV shows to live sports and original programming, there’s something for everyone. If you encounter any problems, remember to consult Apple’s support resources for assistance.
