Billions of Android users could finally get one of iPhone’s most popular apps

APPLE is apparently preparing to bring one its big apps across to rival Android.

A leaker claims the iPhone maker will launch Apple TV+ on the other side "soon".

Apple has already made the service available on Android TV and Google TV, as well as streaming boxes and dongles.

But Android smartphones and tablets has been a glaring omission.

With more content and big releases coming, it looks like Apple is trying to take on the big guns like Netflix and Disney+ in the crowded streaming wars.

The only way it can speed that process up is by embracing the Android users, of which there are billions across the world.

Apple has already done the same with Apple Music.

It's not clear how many subscribers the firm has gained from putting Apple Music on Android.

But the Google Play Store does show that the app has been downloaded more than 50million times.

Leaker said on Twitter that Apple Music is also due a refresh on Android too.

"Apple TV app is coming to Android, currently are still internal beta testing," they claimed.

"Will soon be released.

"Oh Apple Music app for Android is also getting updated too."

Apple TV+ has had some big hits since launching in 2019.

The Morning Show starring Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon is among the service's successfully shows.
