Apple has planted its own flag in the streaming wars with Apple TV+, its in-house streaming service that focuses almost entirely on original programming rather than an extensive library of existing TV shows or movies.





This guide lists all the Apple TV+ content you can watch today, divided into episodic shows or series and movies. There’s also a ton of new content in the works for Apple’s $12.99-a-month service. If you want to know what’s on the way, check out our list of upcoming Apple TV+ shows and movies.





Updated August 29, 2025: The second season of young children’s show Shape Island is now streaming, and so is the new Kpop musical competition show KPopped.
