Content Availability

The Apple site says apply tv is available in my country (Egypt). But every time I subscribe to a provider/channel it tells me this content is not available in my region. Why doesn’t Apple tell us before we subscribe? And what’s the point of not making content available...more revenue.

Apple TV Plus is a service for Apple originals only. It does not contain access to content from other channels or providers nor the iTunes store. Availability of services will vary depending on region and has to do with licensing. It is not merely Apple's decision nor is it isolated to services they provide.

Can you be specific about what you (want to) subscribe to, and which turns out not to be available in your region?

Is your Apple ID for the same country or region?

Every app on the Apple TV box that allows for in-app subscriptions on your Apple ID account with matching region, should also be available to stream to you. Every Apple TV app Channel in the Apple TV app that you can subscribe to, should also be available to stream to you.


If you get a subscription on the web or elsewhere, and it will not stream to you, then ask assistance from the subscription provider.
