This week only, you can save more than 50 percent on an Apple TV subscription for the next six months. After announcing the deal through Amazon last week, Apple has now made the same offer available through its own app: 6 months of Apple TV for $5.99/£4.99 per month instead of the usual $12.99/£9.99. The offer ends on Monday, December 1.
It’s worth noting that Apple will begin streaming “F1 the Movie” on December 12 through Apple TV, so the deal here might be worth it just for that. Also, the hit show Pluribus airs its fifth episode this week, so you’ll be able to watch the rest of that show, too.
The deal is also available through Amazon if you prefer watching that way, but there are a couple of caveats:
- This is a “channel” on Amazon Prime Video, which works the way channels for other services do—you watch the provider’s content exclusively within Prime Video.
- Subscribing here is not the same as subscribing through Apple. You don’t get access within the Apple TV app on any device.
- You don’t get Family Sharing through Apple’s usual subscription. It adheres to the Amazon Family rules.
Whichever way you subscribe, this deal will save you $42 over the six months. Plenty of time to catch up on Slow Horses, Severance, and all our other favorite Apple TV shows and movies. Just note, the price will automatically go up to $12.99 after six months unless it’s cancelled before then. And if you’ve taken advantage of another offer recently, it might not be available.
