T-Mobile Ends Free 'Apple TV On Us' Perk, Will Charge $3 a Month Starting in January

Apple’s recent Apple TV+ price hike prompted T-Mobile to replace the free inclusion with a $9.99 monthly credit that leaves subscribers to cover the balance.

Overview

  • Beginning January 1, 2026, eligible T-Mobile plans will shift from free Apple TV+ to a discounted add-on with a $9.99 monthly credit.
  • Customers who keep the benefit will pay roughly $3 per month, reflecting Apple TV+’s current $12.99 price.
  • Subscribers can cancel the discounted access through T-Mobile’s T-Life app if they do not want the new monthly charge.
  • The change follows months in which T-Mobile absorbed Apple’s increase from $9.99 to $12.99 for customers on plans offering Apple TV On Us.
  • Discounted access applies to higher-tier plans such as Experience More, Experience Beyond, Go5G Plus, and Magenta Plus, and coverage notes Apple One may be a better value for some users at $19.95 per month.
