If youve been living your life severed from Apple TV because youre on an Android phone, then Apple has some good news for you, refiner. Starting today, the Apple TV app is available on Pixels, Samsung Galaxies, and all other Android phones and tablets, complete with the ability to subscribe to Apple TV+ and the MLS (Major League Soccer) Season Pass.Thats great news for anyone who, like me, cant stop thinking about Severance, and Apples doing its best to make the sign-up process as easy as possible. According to a press release sent to journalists, Android users are able to sign up for Apple TVs various subscriptions using their Google Play account, rather than needing to enter a separate email.Apple TVs non-subscription offerings will also be available to Android users, so youll be able to watch pay-per-view titles as well.Android devices arent the first non-Apple hardware to get access to Apple TVI personally watch via my PlayStation 5but the new cross-platform support should make mobile viewing much easier. Android TV did technically already have a version of Apple TV up for download, but now all Android devices will share the same privilege.Aside from Severance, which is currently in its second season, Apple TV+ also hosts popular shows including comedy Ted Lasso and sci-fi drama Silo, as well as original films like Killers of the Flower Moon and Coda. There are also more niche favorites like game-development sitcom Mythic Quest, which carries over much of the same creative team from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Regarding sports, Apple TV+ fans get access to Friday Night Baseball and Sunday Night Soccer for free.The Major League Soccer Season Pass, meanwhile, is a separate purchase from Apple TV+ and allows viewers to watch all available MLS matches without blackouts, rather than only those featured on Sunday Night Soccer. To sweeten the pot, theres also an array of bonus content such as post-match analysis, highlights, and interviews with players. The league is set to kick off its 30th season on Feb. 22, which Im guessing might have influenced todays sudden announcement.As on Apple devices, Android users can get a seven-day free trial to Apple TV+ as soon as they download the app, although theres a number of more tempting deals out there that tend to rotate in and out of availability. If you decide to take the plunge, a subscription will run you $10 a month, or $19.95 a month if you decide to get it as part of an Apple One plan. The MLS Season Pass, then, costs $15 a month standalone, or $13 a month if you already have an Apple TV+ subscription.
