Here’s How to Watch Apple TV+ on Various Devices without Restrictions

October 31, 2019 By Johan Curtis No Comments 6 minutes

Apple’s new TV streaming service will be available starting November 1. The service, which was announced earlier this year, will be available in over 100 countries and regions this week. Apple has also been slowly releasing the Apple TV app on non-Apple devices so that more people can access the upcoming service.

The launch of Apple TV+ will be accompanied by a host of TV shows that are exclusive to the service. We’ll go over them in a bit and show you how you can watch Apple TV+ on any device.

What is Apple TV+?

Apple TV+ is an on-demand video streaming service. It can be thought of as an extension of the Apple TV service – Apple TV+ will be available through the Apple TV app.

Where Apple TV is a culmination of several networks such as Showtime, HBO, CBS and other digital streaming services such as Amazon Prime, Hulu, and PlayStation Vue, Apple TV+ is intended to deliver Apple’s lineup of original content.

The launch of Apple TV+ will be accompanied by a bunch of original shows that will be available for streaming immediately.

How much Does Apple TV+ Cost?

The service costs $4.99 per month and gives you access to the entire library of Apple TV+. You can check out the service for free using the 7-day trial. If you need more convincing, one subscription lets you share the service with up to six people via the Family Sharing feature.

How to Stream Apple TV+ Without Any Geo-Restriction

Like any other service, Apple TV’s content is geo-restricted, the content varies from region to region. The upcoming Apple TV+ service might also have the same geo-restriction barrier in place. The solution to the problem is VPN.

VPN lets you control your privacy by making you anonymous. It does so by changing your IP address, so the ISP and the websites you visit can’t see your actual geographic location. It lets you bypass geo-restrictions easily. FastestVPN has servers around the world, in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France, and more. So considering that Apple TV+ may impose the same geo-restrictions, VPN is certainly going to be useful.

How do I setup VPN on Apple TV?

FastestVPN has dedicated apps for iOS and macOS, so you don’t need to worry about setting up VPN on Apple TV. It’s a simple process – download the app, launch it, and connect to VPN server. Apple has also begun rolling out the Apple TV app for devices such as Roku, FireStick, and Samsung TVs through an exclusive partnership.

You can get VPN protection by manually configuring FastestVPN in your router. This way you can watch Apple TV+ on devices that may get added later.
