Currently, the Apple TV app is only available on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and visionOS. If an Apple TV subscriber owns an Android smartphone or tablet, they must watch the content in a web browser. Interestingly, this may finally change now. According to Mark Gurman's report, Apple may finally bring the Apple TV app to Android smartphones and tablets.

According to reports, Apple is hiring a senior Android software engineer to join the Apple TV app team and build an Android app that will be "used by millions to watch and discover TV and sports." According to the job listing, the engineer would lead the development of a television and sports app for Android. This strongly suggests that Apple plans to bring its TV app to Android smartphones and tablets.

Today, Apple TV is only available on Android TV devices. Smartphone and tablet users must rely on tv.com.apple, which provides a basic streaming experience compared to an app. A mobile app feels especially lacking when watching sports live.

Now, as the Cupertino tech giant finally gears up to create an Apple TV app for Android phones, users will have a more convenient way to access the Apple TV+ streaming service. The mobile app will also provide access to the MLS Season Pass. In addition, there is a storefront to buy or rent Apple TV shows and movies.
