Best Apple TV apps and games: 30 must-download apps on Apple TV and Apple TV 4K – AppleTV 4 Jailbreak (appletv4jailbreak.com)
If you’re all-in on Apple’s ecosystem of hardware and software, the Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K are pretty much must-own streaming devices. The way they tie into the App Store is flawless and if you find yourself wanting to use AirPlay over Chromecast, they’re basically the only streaming devices on the market that are going to deliver for you.
But the Apple TV and Apple TV 4K’s biggest advantage is the App Store.
With thousands of apps and games to pick from the App Store is a labyrinth of content – some of which is way better than others. While Apple does a pretty good job sussing out the good from the bad, finding some of the less popular apps can be a challenge. That’s why we’re here to help.
We’ve scoured the App Store for the best Apple TV apps and games – from household streaming staples like Netflix and Disney Plus to the more obscure games and apps that are hidden off the beaten path – we’ve found 30 games and apps you absolutely need.
Essential Apple TV apps

1. Apple TV with Apple TV Plus
Does it require a subscription? Sort of…
The best place to start your content search on Apple TV is… well, the Apple TV app. Here you’ll find content recommendations from a number of service providers – including Amazon Prime Video, HBO and others that each have their own individual apps that we’ll cover below – as well as Apple’s own service, Apple TV Plus. Speaking of, we recommend at least demoing the service for a week to binge-watch The Morning Show, See and one of our personal favorites, Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet.

2. Apple Music
Does it require a subscription? Yes
Of course, if you’re looking for some new music to relax with, your best bet is going to be the Apple Music app that comes pre-installed on both the Apple TV and Apple TV 4K. No, unfortunately this one isn’t free either, but like Apple TV Plus it comes with a pretty substantial free trial – three months in this case. Why you’ll fall in love with it is the incredibly well-curated playlist selection, massive music library and some neat extra features like Beats1 Radio.

3. Apple Arcade
Does it require a subscription? Yes
One of the last essential apps from Apple worth taking a look at as soon as you boot up the Apple TV is Apple Arcade – which is both the name of the app and the name of Apple’s all-you-can-play game service that has over 100 titles, all of which can be downloaded simultaneously. Here’s the good news and the bad news. The bad news is that, again, it’s not free – but the good news is that there’s a free trial and the subscription is good for your entire family and will work on any of your iOS devices, iPad and iPhone included.
