How to switch to another language on the Apple TV+ start screen?

I'm in Spain and my Apple TV+ subscription is paid with a Spanish bank card, so I only see descriptions on my TV in Spanish. Of course, I can watch and listen to any show in another language, but how do I switch to another language on the start screen (English, etc.)?

  1. On the Apple TV box, you can set a device language, and then that applies to (most of) the Apple TV app as well. Change the language or region format on Apple TV - Apple Support
  2. On iPad, you can set a device language, and then that applies to (most of) the Apple TV app as well. Change the language and region on iPad - Apple Support
  3. On Mac, you can set a device language, and then that applies to (most of) the Apple TV app as well. Additionally (or instead) you may set a preferred language for individual apps. Change the language your Mac uses - Apple Support


  • In the Apple TV app, some text on graphics may still appear in the main language of your country.
  • In the Apple TV app, descriptions for content from third party suppliers may be available in limited languages, not necessarily in the language of your choice.

In the Netherlands, I get an English interface when I set the device (any of them) to English. Not sure why it might be different for Spain. Quite unexpected.

At this time, I would suggest to contact an expert from the Apple Support staff for further assistance. Contact Apple for support and service (phone numbers) or start your support request online (chat/​email/​callback).
