How to watch Apple TV+ content on your Microsoft Windows computer
- You can watch Apple TV+ on your Windows computer easily by logging on to Apple TV+ website.
- You can also watch any Apple TV shows or movies that you've downloaded on your Apple account using your PC's iTunes application.
If you're someone who uses both Apple and Microsoft products, you're probably used to the two systems clashing with each other. If something works on your iPhone or Mac, it may encounter issues on a competitor's device, such as on a Windows computer.
That said, there are some areas where Apple is becoming more inclusive of other products, and streaming is at the forefront of those efforts. After all, if Apple wants its shows to gain popularity, it will want as many people as possible to be able to watch them.
It's easy to watch Apple TV+ on a computer running Windows. It's just like using Netflix, Hulu, or any other streaming service you may be familiar with — all you have to do is use your web browser.
