Apple is working on a revised version of its Apple TV app, which, according to a Bloomberg report, will change the appearance of the video streaming app on the company’s smart TV box. Users were able to see the change in the interface in a way similar to the interface of competing services. According to reports, the company will make the Apple TV app the only way to rent and buy movies on the platform, and will phase out its dedicated apps that offer the same functionality on the device.
Bloomberg reports that Apple is redesigning its Apple TV app with a new left-aligned side panel that allows users to choose from different categories. This will adapt the design of the Apple TV app to other apps from Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and other streaming services that use the same design to browse different categories of TV shows and movies.
In addition to the redesigned interface, Apple is also reportedly working to streamline the process of borrowing or buying content on the platform. Currently, users can buy or rent TV shows and movies on Apple TV by opening the Apple TV app or using the iTunes apps for both types of content. As part of the redesigned experience, Apple will remove these apps from iTunes.
This means that users will soon have to buy or rent TV shows and movies through the Apple TV app, while users who used to buy or rent content through the iTunes Store app on their iPhone or iPad will also have to use the Apple TV app. since the Cupertino company is trying to simplify the process of renting or buying movies and TV shows on the platform.
