If you’re OK watching Apple TV content through the Amazon Prime Video app or website, you can get a year’s subscription for essentially half price. That’s the latest Amazon Prime Video deal: 6 months of Apple TV for $5.99 per month instead of the usual $12.99. There are a few caveats worth mentioning, however:
- Your price will automatically go up to $12.99 after six months. That’s standard for this sort of deal.
- This is a “channel” on Amazon Prime Video, which works the way channels for other services do—you watch the provider’s content exclusively within Prime Video.
- Subscribing here is not the same as subscribing through Apple. You don’t get access within the Apple TV app on any device.
- You don’t get Family Sharing through Apple’s usual subscription. It adheres to the Amazon Family rules.
If you use Amazon Prime Video for other things and are okay watching your Apple TV content there, this can save you $42 over the six months. Plenty of time to catch up on Pluribus, Slow Horses, Severance, and all our other favorite Apple TV shows and movies.
