Do the new apple ids need to be login on an apple device first? Tried twice but didnt work.

1) created an apple ID from PC which keeps on giving error after creating it that it needs to be signed in for first time from apple device.

2) created a new apple ID from PS5 which somehow worked as far as sign in is concerned and allowed me to add payment method. But it did not give me 6 months trial.

 

Poor android user here :(

Had the same issue, I'm an android user too, no apple device. 

I had payment method added from renting justice league earlier, clicked on 6 months trial option under tv+, it asked me to sign in from mobile or any other web enabled device, add new payment method and try again. 

tv.apple.com/settings page won't open in Android, but opened fine in pc. Payment method already existed, clicked on edit and reentered cvv, and save. Went back to PS5 and tried again, this time it worked. 

Also make sure to check if the Apple TV app has any update on ps5, I had to update for the 6 month trial to work.

There are so many games being launched on PS5 now and I think all of them are really amazing. I'm still thinking about getting one but I would probably do it because of the good reviews. Those who have one, mind sharing your favorite games?


astro’s playroom is currently the best game on ps5

You can't miss Demon's Souls and Returnal. Must play on PS5. 

 

Other underrated game - Control ultimate edition

I redeemed it too.
 
Points to note, just in case:
- I already had a payment method set-up since I had made purchases on my Apple ID in the past.
- I had never activated the default 7-Day trial that Apple provides for Apple TV+.
- The offer can only be activated from a PS5.
- Once activated, anywhere you use Apple TV+, will also reflect the 6-month trial period.
- Content looks wayyyyy better on the native LG CX app than on the PS5. Seriously, I don't think I can EVER vouch for the media-playback capabilities on the PS5. Proper Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support FTW, which the PS5 does not support (stupidity if you ask me).


I already have a 1 year free plan activated which I got with an ipad. Will this 6 months offer stack or do I need to create another apple id for this ?

use around 200 watts of power to stream, rather than the usual 5-15w.... no thanx... I care more than that for the environment.

You do realize you can just activate it on your id and use the same id via tv/streaming boxes?

 

Also if you're really concerned about environment stop buying consoles altogether.

That's the right attitude. I admire you for living without an air conditioner in this heat, how you manage eatables without a fridge, always taking the public transport, using a headphones to avoid high wattage amps/speakers. You should be since a console is what worries you about the environment ;)

I am in bangalore, so never needed an AC, dont have one.... I use a  scooter, not the car whenever i can. I do have a fridge, of course:)

 

Its not the console part,  I do have one, but if the streaming is on that, then the kids would be watching it for a long time and it all adds up. I experienced that with ps4 pro with netflix and amazon prime. 400w (for tv and pro) for 10 hrs or 210W using an android box. Big difference, I have seen it in my electricity bill also during their vacation months.

 

I am not perfect, but I do what I can.

AppleTV app on PS4 has started working in India 

which I clearly remember wasn’t the case months back 

 

It’s good coz neither of my TV’s had it 

 

There is also a sub lionsgate channel 

I hope HBOmax also shows up as one of these channels

Dont get your hopes up. 90% will be booked by bots. Harsh but reality 

A few posts ago someone mentioned PS5 was up for sale for 20 mins

if bots were still active it wouldn’t have been possible 

 

I guess Amazon atleast has secured itself from bot algorithms 

Even Shantz mentioned his notifier had been disabled 

 

Just hopping it gets better in next 6 months when I plan to buy ,don’t want to spend a penny more than the MRP
