Starting from today, all 2019 Samsung Smart TVs and select 2018 TV models with a firmware update will feature the all-new Apple TV app in more than 100 countries and offer AirPlay 2 support in 176 countries. Samsung users can enjoy Apple TV channels, iTunes movies and TV shows on Samsung Smart TVs.
“For the last decade, Samsung has been at the forefront of offering the broadest selection of content available at consumers on our Smart TV platform.” said Won-Jin Lee, Executive Vice President, Visual Display Business at Samsung Elecrronics. “As the first TV manufacturer to integrate the Apple TV app on a Smart TV platform, Samsung continues to offer our customers incredible value and access to the Apple TV experience on the largest screens available today.”
The Apple TV app is fully integrated into Samsung’s Smart TV platform and users can select the icon to access all of their iTunes movies and TV show purchases, browse more than 100,000 iTunes movies and TV shows to buy or rent, including titles available in 4K HDR, in pristine picture quality. Customers can also subscribe to Apple TV channels with the Apple TV app, paying for the ones they want and watch on demand directly in the app.
Samsung Smart TV users will be able to enjoy Apple TV+, Apple’s original video subscription service, in the Apple TV app across the same model lines when the service launches this fall. With AirPlay 2-enabled Samsung Smart TVs, customers can now also effortlessly play videos and other content from their iPhone, iPad or Mac directly to their Samsung Smart TV.
The Apple TV app will work seamlessly with Samsung’s Smart TV Services, such as Bixby and Search to create a consistent experience across Samsung’s platform.
