Verify that you have the correct app. For some smart TVs, Apple has multiple apps.

  • Apple TV app: Full app for purchased content and select subscription content, including Apple TV+.
  • Apple TV+ app: Just Apple TV+ subscription content.



UN43M5300 seems to be a 2017 Samsung HD TV from the 5 series. I believe that model should support the Apple TV app. Apple TV app-supported devices - Apple.
