how to watch keeps coming up

Hi,


I'm in the 7 day trial period of Appletv+ and when I search for stuff example "Zappa" or even any other movies i see I click on them and how to watch appears with no other options. Can anyone enlighten me on what I am doing wrong. Based in New Zealand.

Zappa (2020) is not part of Apple TV+, but instead part of the Apple iTunes Store movie catalog; movies for buy or rent. Those will have to be paid for separately.

“4KTV-JUP” may mean a Panasonic TV. Panasonic is both listed under Android TVs and under its own brand category. Not sure if that is to signify a difference.


“How to Watch” is known to appear on Android TV devices, as currently the Apple TV app doesn’t support in-app transactions on that platform. You’ll have to do the transaction part on a different device (e.g. iPhone).

2. On Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, and Sony TV devices, you can't purchase content from the Apple TV app. You can buy, rent, or subscribe on another supported device and then watch in the Apple TV app on your Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, or Sony TV device. [2]
