Apple’s new Apple TV app will be available on Roku and Fire TV devices, plus smart TVs

During Apple’s ‘Show Time’ event at the Steve Jobs Theatre, the company announced that its new Apple TV app will be available on Roku and Fire TV devices, plus a handful of smart TVs.

The new app is full of new features and besides being available on all of Apple devices, like Apple TV 4K, the iPhone and iPad,  it’s coming to Samsung, LG, Sony and Vizio smart TVs.

It’s launching on Samsung’s TVs first this spring, but there’s no specific timeline for when the app is coming to the rest of the platforms.

This news lines up with Apple partnering with these TV manufactures to allow AirPlay 2 and iTunes on their smart TVs. AirPlay 2 allows Apple device users to stream content from the streaming service to these televisions.
