Apple TV (formerly Apple TV+) price (October 2026) and how to cancel

Last updated: · By the CostToCancel editorial team
Quick answer

In the US (as of 2026-10-18), Apple TV (formerly Apple TV+) costs $14.99 a month after a free 7-day trial - US list price from Apple's Apple TV page - and is included in every Apple One plan, which starts at $21.95 a month. To cancel on iPhone or iPad, open Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions > Apple TV > Cancel Subscription (Apple Support: Cancel Apple TV); on the web, you can cancel at tv.apple.com or account.apple.com.

It also comes free with the Apple Music Student plan, new Apple device buyers get 3 months free, and up to six people can share one subscription. If you're on a free trial, cancel at least 24 hours before it ends.

Apple dropped the plus sign in 2025, so the service now appears as Apple TV on Apple's site and in Subscriptions, while older bank statements and guides may still say Apple TV+. Apple also includes it free for 3 months with an eligible new Apple device and with the Apple Music Student plan - if your charge started after one of those offers ended, that's why. Check whether the renewing subscription is standalone Apple TV or an Apple One bundle before you cancel.

Frequently asked questions

Is Apple TV+ included in Apple One?

Yes. Apple TV (formerly Apple TV+) is part of every Apple One plan: Individual is $21.95/month, Family $27.95/month and Premier $39.95/month in the US. Apple TV always includes Family Sharing, even on Apple One Individual. If you cancel Apple One, Apple lets you choose which individual subscriptions to keep, and those are then billed separately.

Why don't I see Apple TV+ in Subscriptions?

Apple now lists it as Apple TV. It may also be billed by your wireless carrier or another provider, or included in your Apple One plan - in that case it won't appear as a separate subscription.

Can I cancel during a free trial?

Yes - cancel at least 24 hours before the 7-day trial ends to avoid the first charge.

Is there an annual Apple TV plan?

Apple's Apple TV page lists only the monthly price ($14.99 in the US as of October 18, 2026).
