To stream Apple Originals content on your Philips Smart TV, you need to install the Apple TV app from the respective app store. With Apple TV, you can stream dramas, entertainment, documentaries, and more in 4K quality. The Apple TV app requires an Apple TV+ subscription to play the content. When you sign up for the subscription ($6.99/mon), you will get a 7-day free trial on Apple TV+ and can cancel it anytime. Philips Smart TV runs on different operating systems (Android TV OS and Roku TV OS) and hence the installation steps vary with the device you have.
