We may be only a few months away from an Apple TV subscription service launch. According to a report by The Information, Apple plans to launch its TV subscription service in the US in the first half of 2019. The service will reportedly be available in more than 100 countries, starting with the US and coming to other regions in the months thereafter.
According to 'three people familiar with the company's plans,' Apple's subscription service will include original content and will let users sign up for network subscriptions, such as HBO and Showtime, within the same app. It's unclear if the service will live in a new app or in Apple's existing TV iOS app.
Apple reportedly plans on making the original content on the service free for Apple device owners. This aspect of the service has been reported for a while now. But it has also been rumored that Apple will restrict the subscription service to Apple devices, such as the iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
