Family Sharing and Roku

I just purchased Roku. I use Apple TV because my daughter shared it through Family Sharing. My iPhone settings confirm that I am sharing Apple TV from her. Because I have a new phone I am entitled to a 3 month free trial. When I sign in on Roku it doesn’t seem to recognize the family sharing and wants me to accept the free trial. Any suggestions are appreciated.

iPhone 13 Pro

I am not clear as to what your issue is here. Are you trying to get a free trial, or are you trying to sign into Apple TV on a Roku device (I don't know what you mean when you say "Roku" since I only know a Roku device as an item of hardware)?


If your issue is signing into the shared AppleTV service, carefully read: All the ways to watch Apple TV+ - Apple Support


If you're trying to sign into a trial, check these links for tips:


"Get 3 months of Apple TV+ for free." - Click on the link and read it, including the FAQ at the end. Check your eligibility. --> https://offers.appletvapp.apple/

"Only one offer per Apple ID and only one offer per family if you're part of a Family Sharing group, regardless of the number of devices you or your family purchases. "
