The problem with new subscriptions on Apple TV+ is that a large part of the Apple ecosystem’s loyalists have already taken advantage of their trial period or know the streaming service by heart. Apple needs to reach new people, users who are in other ecosystems like Google’s for example. To do this, the Cupertino firm concludes agreements with third parties, the latest of which was made with LG for its connected TVs!
Apple x LG for an extended trial period of Apple TV+
LG has just unveiled a new offer that should delight streaming content fans. Starting September 9 and running through November 17, 2024, owners of select LG smart TVs will have the opportunity to enjoy a three-month free trial of Apple TV+. This initiative is a great opportunity to discover Apple’s streaming service, as the trial period usually offered by Apple is 7 days when activated via apple.com.
This exclusive offer is for LG 4K and 8K Smart TV users from 2018 to 2024 models. To benefit from this trial offer, you must either have never subscribed to Apple TV+ or have been a subscriber for a very long time.
How to take advantage of the offer?
This offer can be activated via the Apple TV app built into your LG TV or via the LG Streaming app. Available in over 90 countries, including France, this offer is part of LG Streaming Week, an annual event organized by LG to promote streaming apps and allow users to discover new services.
A strategic collaboration between LG and Apple
This agreement presents mutual benefits for LG and Apple. For LG, it is a way to stand out from the competition by offering an additional advantage to its customers, an advantage that owners of TVs from other brands do not necessarily have. For Apple, this initiative is an ideal opportunity to attract new subscribers, with the hope that once the trial period is over, they will renew their subscription, which will automatically be billed at €9.99/month after the three free months.
A unique opportunity to discover what’s new on Apple TV+
With this extended trial period, thousands of people will have the opportunity to experience Apple’s latest original creations. Highlights include: “Bandits, Bandits”a family series where a child travels through time with a group of thieves, the incredible science fiction series “Dark Matter” where a professor discovers at his expense, alternative realities where the choices he made in his life are not the same, as well as “Bad Monkeys”a new series with Carl Hiaasen and the film “The Instigators”.
