So, you’re thinking about diving into the world of Apple TV+? Excellent choice! You might be picturing yourself snuggled on the couch, binge-watching the latest Ted Lasso episode. But before you grab the remote, let's talk about the magic number: How much does this delightful little streaming adventure actually cost you per month?
The answer, in its simplest form, is usually around $9.99 a month. That's less than the price of a fancy coffee and a pastry, but delivers hours of entertainment.
But Wait, There's More! (Like Free Stuff!)
Now, here's where things get interesting, and maybe even a little bit sneaky (in a good way, of course). Apple, in its infinite tech-giant wisdom, likes to sprinkle in opportunities for a bit of a discount.
Did you recently buy a shiny new iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV? If so, congratulations, you might be eligible for a free trial of Apple TV+! Sometimes they give you three months, or even longer. Think of it as Apple’s way of saying, "Thanks for joining the family, here's some free TV to celebrate!"
It's like finding a twenty-dollar bill in your old jeans – a totally unexpected and delightful surprise.
The Apple One Bundle: A Streaming Smorgasbord
Feeling like you need even MORE Apple in your life? Then consider the Apple One bundle. Think of it as a buffet of Apple services, all rolled into one convenient monthly payment.
Apple One includes Apple TV+, along with other goodies like Apple Music, Apple Arcade, and iCloud storage. It can be a fantastic deal if you already subscribe to several of these services individually.
It's like ordering the combo meal instead of everything a la carte! Plus, you can share it with family.
Other Ways to Save Some Dough
Beyond the new-device freebie and the Apple One bundle, there are a few other clever ways to potentially lower your monthly Apple TV+ bill. Keep your eyes peeled for special promotions or partnerships. Sometimes, mobile carriers or internet providers will offer bundled deals that include Apple TV+ at a discounted rate.
Speaking of family, consider the family sharing option if you go the Apple One route. Up to five family members can enjoy Apple TV+ (and all the other services in the bundle) under a single subscription.
It's like having a family discount to your favorite streaming service.
Remember to Cancel If You're Just "Visiting"
Let’s say you signed up for that amazing free trial because you were dying to watch one specific show. And you watched it. All of it. Twice.
Don't forget to set a reminder to cancel your subscription before the free trial ends! Otherwise, you’ll automatically be charged the regular monthly fee. It's easy to do, but also easy to forget!
Imagine accidentally paying for a streaming service you no longer use. It’s like buying a gym membership and never going!
So, whether you're paying the standard $9.99 a month, snagging a free trial, or bundling up with Apple One, the world of Apple TV+ awaits. Happy streaming!
Enjoy the world of streaming and the many heartwarming moments that await.
