What's available

Apple TV+ in the US gives you access to the platform's full original content library. You can stream hit dramas like The Morning Show, Severance, Slow Horses, and Presumed Innocent. Sci-fi fans get For All Mankind, Foundation, and Invasion. Comedy is covered with Ted Lasso, Shrinking, and The Afterparty. On the film side, you can watch CODA, Killers of the Flower Moon, Napoleon, Argylle, and Fly Me to the Moon. Kids and families have Spirited Away and Luck available as well.

What you're missing

Because Apple TV+ is primarily a global originals platform, the US library is largely the same as other regions. However, some licensed films and regional co-productions appear in select markets before reaching the US. Titles like certain international language films and documentary specials occasionally launch in their home regions first. Specific examples include some bonus content and behind-the-scenes extras tied to sporting events that roll out region by region. MLS Season Pass availability and live sports commentary options may also differ slightly outside the US.

How to access other regions

If you want to browse Apple TV+ as it appears in another country — to catch early releases or region-specific content — a VPN is the most straightforward solution. Connect to a server in your target country, then open Apple TV+ in your browser or app. The platform will read your new IP address and serve you that region's catalog.

We recommend NordVPN as your first choice. It's fast, reliable, and has servers in over 60 countries. Connect to a UK server to access the British catalog, or try an Australian server for that region's version. NordVPN's streaming-optimized servers make buffering issues rare.

Pricing

  • Apple TV+ costs $9.99/month in the US
  • An annual plan is available at $99/month per year
  • Apple One bundles start at $19.95/month and include Apple TV+ alongside Music, Arcade, and iCloud storage
  • New Apple device buyers often receive a free three-month trial

Our recommendation

If you're in the US, Apple TV+ already gives you one of the strongest original content lineups in streaming. You get Severance, Ted Lasso, The Morning Show, and award-winning films all in one place. For the rare cases where another region gets something first, connect to NordVPN, pick the right server, and you're in. At $9.99 a month, the value is hard to argue with — especially if you're already in the Apple ecosystem.
