Anime streaming service Crunchyroll is now available as an Apple TV app channel, making it easier for prospective customers to subscribe without having to open up another app.
Apple TV users in the U.S., Canada, UK, and Australia are now able to subscribe to Crunchyroll through the Apple TV. There's a 7-day free trial available, after which the service is priced at $9.99 per month. The Crunchyroll Apple TV Channel is separate from existing Crunchyroll subscriptions, and an existing account can't be linked to the Apple TV app.
As with all Apple TV Channels content, if you sign up for Crunchyroll with the Apple TV app, you'll be billed through Apple. Crunchyroll says its full catalog of over 50,000 episodes is available through the Crunchyroll Apple TV Channel.
Apple TV Channels have long been an Apple TV app feature that makes subscribing to multiple services more convenient. Channels content can be watched in the Apple TV app without having to open up another app, and access can be shared with up to six members of a Family Sharing group. Channels also offer watch on-demand content and offline downloads.
Some of the available Apple TV Channels include Starz, Paramount+, AMC+, Mubi, Shudder, MGM+, and IFC Films.
