In a way this is more of a PSA that they are planning to do away with the free annual that has been around forever. Kind of sucks.
With that said, Ted Lasso, Mythic Quest, and Home Before Dark are some of my favorite shows.
The Morning Show is also good. I,too, like many others don't really watch Apple TV + and unless they step up their content offering I think they'll lose most of their subscribers once their trial is up.
I had the free year which ends in a few weeks. I recently bought my son a new iPhone and had him try to activate the 1 year this morning and he doesn't have the option to do so.
Your son should have a different apple id and you could get another 1 year
People love ted lasso for some reason. I've watched several episodes and find myself clicking on the remote repeatedly to see when the episode will end. Now, i like mythic quest and i hope physical has promise. The new snoopy show is cute. Hopefully apple will renew existing subscribers or they would lose a lot of us.
If one watches the English football they might appreciate the nuances of Ted Lasso?
My free year is done soon and I'll probably wait until Foundation comes out before subscribing again. Might even wait until there are new seasons of For All Mankind and Mythic Quest. $4.99 a month isn't much but there's not enough content for me to keep it on with so many other streaming services around vying for my attention.

I like Ted Lasso and I'm not even a sports fan. The show is well written but I think the main appeal is Ted's character is just so likable.

I have an apple tv 4 purchased a few years ago, still new in box
does it work?
You asking does the Apple TV expire in the box or can you still get Apple TV +?
On a serious note, no, you cannot get Apple TV+ for free. Reason being, if you purchase the Apple TV a few years ago, that would mean its likely before Apple TV + even came out. It launched in November 2019. Besides that, it's not based off you activating/using the eligible product but rather when you purchased it. You have 3 months after purchase to activate the free trial.

My XR is coming up on 2 years in September, and they seem to keep extending the trial out?
Yes they extended the trial one time. Most likely as a courtesy due to the pandemic. A lot of companies have given a "bonus" during the pandemic. I'd be surprised they extend again. If so, that means they KNOW their content isn't good enough to keep a paying subscriber. I do think it's a shame you can't stack the free trials with each purchase.
Can't seem to get this to work even though I just purchased a new Mac Mini. I actually went as far as canceling my free subscription as it was going to end July 5th anyway and was going to start billing me.
This is kind of random...but when I sent in my iPad Air 3 for service and they sent me back a refurb, I got the offer too. It was a pretty good deal just for getting a new replacement iPad. Alas, I've barely watched Apple TV.

I had the 1 year groom from iPhone X aabout year ago, and then got the new iPhone about 6 months Ago. At first it extended my Apple TV another year, but recently the expiration date updated to a 3 month window.
I upgraded 3 other lines at the same time, and they still have the same issue.

Anyone know if we can do this twice? I did one last year but my free 1-year is up. I just bought my wife a new iphone so wondering if I can get another free year.
With a new iphone, I was able to get 1 more year free second time but using different icloud account.
