Reportedly high budget has brought Apple TV+ a lot of prestige, but not a lot of viewers.

    In my house Apple TV has a Samsung tv app, a Vizio app, and is installed on a Roku.

    Also unless your chromecast is ancient, they also have a chromecast app

      I have a Chromecast Ultra, bought in early 2020. At the time it was the newest (4K) Chromecast. It was replaced later that year with another device that would support apps.

      It’s since been replaced again, this new device costs ~$100 bucks. My device cost ~$70 bucks when I bought it (maybe less). Now I could upgrade to this brand new device but the ONLY new thing I would be able to do is watch Apple TV.

      Sure there is a solution now, but Apple spent the last 4+ years ignoring me. Even if I upgrade my device I still have to use it the way they want me to (remote control) and not the way I want to (casting from my phone).

      My point is that Apple has ignore Android users since the product launch. There are rumors that they’re building an Android app, but it’s not available yet. The article in question fails to acknowledge that Apple has ignored a large audience of users.
