Does the app on your TV or TV-connected streaming device show as “Apple TV app” or as “Apple TV+ app”? There is a difference in these two editions that may be relevant here. The (full) Apple TV app has a Store, a Library and additional Channels. The (specialized) Apple TV+ app doesn’t have these features, and instead focuses on Apple TV+ and MLS content. Which one is available to you, is unfortunately not user choice. It depends on the exact model device, per negotiation between Apple and device manufacturer.


Get the Apple TV app or Apple TV+ app on your smart TV or streaming device - Apple Support
