Apple Raises Prices of Apple TV Plus and Other Subscription Services

Apple announced on Wednesday it's hiking the prices of some of its subscription services for US and some international customers. 

Subscription prices for Apple TV Plus, Apple Arcade, Apple News Plus are all increasing by at least $2 a month. Apple is also raising the prices of its Apple One subscription bundles. Each bundle includes Apple TV Plus, Apple Arcade, Apple Music and iCloud Plus, and the Apple One Premier bundle adds Apple News Plus and Apple Fitness Plus.

Here are the new prices of Apple's services:

• Apple Arcade: $7 a month, $50 annually. 
  
• Apple TV Plus: $10 a month, $99 annually.
• Apple News Plus: $13 a month.
• Apple One, Individual: $20 a month.
• Apple One, Family: $26 a month.

• Apple One, Premier: $38 a month.

The price increases go into effect for new subscribers now, and current subscribers will see these price increases in 30 days on their next renewal date. 

Apple did not raise the prices of its Apple Music, Apple Fitness Plus or iCloud Plus services.

If the price increase is too much for you, or you don't feel you're getting as much value from these services as you're paying, you can cancel your subscription.
