Prime Video customers in the US will soon be able to add Apple TV+, the iPad and iPhone maker’s streaming service, to their subscription.
The service, which is home to a raft of original comedy and drama series including Shrinking, The Morning Show, Severance, Foundation, Silo, and Slow Horses, will be available as an add-on channel later this month.
Add-on channels are available to watch via the Prime Video app which comes pre-installed in Smart TVs from most major brands and is also available on streaming devices from Amazon, Roku and Apple plus movies and tablets.
While initially only available for customers the US, it’s been confirmed that the tie-up will roll out to additional territories at a later date.
