As Microsoft announced in early November, the Apple TV application is now available for the Xbox ecosystem, both the new generation that is about to hit the market (Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S) and the Xbox One, an application that allows us to access the same content available on the Apple TV application for iOS.
The Apple TV application that we can now install on the Xbox offers us access to the entire catalog available on Apple TV + in addition to access to all the content available on iTunes both for rent or to buy and access to the content of the different channels available (under subscription) through the Apple streaming platform such as Showtime, CBS All Access and AMC +, channels that vary depending on the region.

The application allows us to establish content restrictions according to age, add accessibility options, limit the quality of the reproduction... Regarding the design, as we can see in the tweet published by Tom Warren from The Verge, the design is practically the same as that we can find both on Apple TV and on any other iOS device.
Although Sony previously announced that the app Apple TV would come to the new generation of the PlayStation, in addition to the previous version, Microsoft has been ahead in couple of days at its launch.
A couple of weeks ago, Microsoft revamped the Xbox app, an application that has been completely redesigned, like the PlayStation application for iOS, which allows us to play remotely from anywhere, even using 5G networks as long as we have an Xbox at home.
To be able to enjoy xCloud on our iPhone or iPad we will have to wait a little longer, until Microsoft launches the web service that allows you to enjoy the catalog available in Game Pass through Safari.
