TV App - Watch on Your Mac
Essential Apple User Magazine|May/June 2022
The TV app has long been a popular means of buying and watching television shows and movies on iOS, and now it's come to the Mac. If you've already bought video media on the iTunes Store, in macOS Monterey, you'll find it in the TV app. How does it work? Let's tune in and find out.
TV App - Watch on Your Mac

1 Open the TV app, and click on the Account menu in the top bar. If you’re not signed into your Apple account, select Sign In and enter your Apple ID and Password in the fields provided, then click the Sign In button below them.

2 Look at the tabs at the top of the window. Watch Now is the TV app’s front page, showing movies and TV shows you’ve previously bought alongside those available to buy or rent from the app. Scroll up for more suggestions.

3 If you subscribe, watch TV+ in the tab. Under the Movies and TV shows tabs you can buy and/or rent films and programmes. TV shows can be bought individually or on a per-series basis; scroll up for available episodes.

4 The Kids tab is, unsurprisingly, for children’s programmes. Again, click a show, and scroll up to see which episodes are available. Click the triangle next to the Season number and you can switch to a different season.
