Is Apple TV+ down right now?

No. Our checks are finding no problems with Apple TV+ right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Apple TV+ continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.

The problems visitors report most often on this page are website / app down, can't log in, video won't play, constant buffering, poor video quality and downloads failing. Those are the options the report button offers for Apple TV+, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.

Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Apple TV+ specifically, playback, the catalogue and subscription verification are separate, and video comes from regional delivery servers. A title can fail while the app browses normally, one delivery region can be unhealthy, and a third-party TV app can break while the Apple TV box is fine. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.

For Apple TV+, open tv.apple.com in a browser on a computer, which plays the same catalogue without going through the TV app at all. A title playing there while the app refuses to start it points at that app or that device rather than Apple TV+. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.

If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Apple TV+'s side. Specifically: do not cancel or re-enter your subscription. Verification is often the part that is broken, and re-subscribing during an incident can charge you twice. Downloads already on the device keep playing. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.

Continuously, around the clock. Apple TV+ publishes a machine-readable status feed, so our first check reads it directly and reports what Apple TV+ itself says. If that feed is unreachable we fall back to a direct HTTP probe, then an ICMP ping, then reports from visitors. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.

Yes, at www.apple.com/support/systemstatus, and it is linked further up this page. That is Apple TV+'s own account of their service and it is the place to look for their estimate of a fix. We read it where we can, but we publish our own observations beside it rather than only repeating theirs, because an operator's status page can lag a problem their users are already hitting.

No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Apple TV+ or tv.apple.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Apple TV+'s own support, not us.
