We’ve seen reports from other users that were also unable to get this service on their Apple TV (2nd generation). Even AirPlay reportedly doesn’t work with it.
Apple has never listed Apple TV (2nd generation) among the supported devices for this service.
Apple TV+ does not function on my Apple TV gen 2. However, the trailer of a movie (The Elephant Queen) does play with Airplay but not the movie itself. Frustrating.
Just bought an i-phone 11 that includes 1 year with apple tv+. Won't play on my 2nd generation Apple TV. why not?
As it is unsupported and quite old (nearing 10 years) you may want to consider upgrading to an Apple TV 4 or 4K, not a major investment but it will open up a much more fulfilling experience.
I have an apple tv 4k and doesnt work either
Apple TV+ would not play on AppleTV gen 2
