I have a free year of Apple TV available. The Apple TV device I have is 3rd generation or older. How can I tell and how do I know if the subscription is even worth it? I understand no HD or 4K but ate other features also unavailable?
My Apple TV does not show up as a device in iTunes, if that is a factor.
Thanks in Advance!
Upgrade your tvOS to current, as described above.
Then... Read this article through: Join Apple TV+ - Apple Support
It’s mentioned in the Join Apple TV+ info, but here’s how to redeem your free year:

Great help! So now, how do I add it to the devices on my iTunes account (so I can see it listed,) and is the new Apple TV programming viewable (in HD, but I understand not 4K,) on this Apple TV?
So far so helpful everyone!
it will never be in your itunes as a device like iphones or ipads or the likes
only devices which can be synced to will be located there
it will work as airplay speaker in itunes
and it can access the shared itunes lib and it can be controlled with the remote app
and it can access the build in channels and apples itunes store for movies and tv series
Start with this:
Apple TV+ can be displayed on iPad, iPhone, macOS, and on Apple TV 3rd generation and newer.
Devices you can use with the Apple TV app and Apple TV+ - Apple Support
Model A1469
Serial Number F02JG8W3FF54
Apple TV Software 7.4 (8081)
TV Resolution 1080p HD - 60Hz
Does that help?
Okay thanks. My tvOS says it is up to date. I’ll see what works and what doesn’t during the free trial year, then decide if Apple TV is for me.
Is an Older generation Apple TV useless now?
