Set up the Apple TV app on iPad
The Apple TV app brings your favorite shows, movies, sports, and live news into one app. It lets you browse content from popular streaming services and leading cable providers as well as movies and TV shows you purchase or rent from iTunes. You can easily subscribe to Apple TV channels such as HBO and Showtime. The Apple TV app is on your iOS devices, Apple TV, and supported smart TVs, so you can watch at home or wherever you go.
Note: The availability of channels and supported apps varies by region. See the Apple Support article Availability of the Apple TV app and supported apps.

Each channel provides one trial per subscriber or per family. If you previously used your trial, you have the option to resubscribe.
