Apple TV+ has partnered with Prime Video to offer their catalogue as an add-on subscription to the Amazon-owned streaming service.
Apple TV+ is now available as a Prime Video add-on subscription, to the tune of $12.99 AUD per month (in Australia). What you get is the content library of two streaming services under the one home: so you can watch Ted Lasso, Severance, Silo and Slow Horses without switching between apps.
The rollout follows the successful US launch of Apple TV+ as an add-on to Prime Video in October, with the service now extending to Australia, Canada, and the UK.

‘We’re delighted to bring this offering to more audiences, enhancing Prime Video’s all-in-one app experience,’ said Kelly Day, Vice President of International, Prime Video.
For Australian Prime Video subscribers, Apple TV+ marks the 22nd add-on streaming service available locally. Daniel Slepak, Prime Video’s head of marketplace for Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, highlighted the convenience: ‘Prime Video offers a curated selection of premium programming, live sports, and streaming subscriptions—all accessible with a single login and no additional apps.’
Apple TV+ continues to build its reputation with over 500 award wins and 2,300 nominations, including landmark titles like CODA, the first streaming film to win Best Picture at the Oscars.
Prime Video already offers several streaming add-ons in Australia, including:
- Crunchyroll: An anime platform with two subscription tiers: Fan for $10.99 per month and Mega Fan for $13.99 per month. Mega Fan subscribers can download titles for offline viewing.
- Paramount+: A platform that provides content from Paramount Pictures, CBS, BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, MTV, and The Smithsonian Channel.
- Hayu: A platform focused on reality TV offerings.
- BritBox: A platform for all things British TV.
- MGM+: A platform mostly focused on movies, including Oscar-winners, comedies, Hollywood epics, documentaries, and franchise favourites.
Crunchyroll is the most recent of those add-ons, with the acquisition being confirmed last October. Apple TV+, which primarily offers Apple Original shows and films, can now be included in that list.
