Apple to launch its Apple One subscription bundle on Friday

Apple’s recently announced subscription bundle, Apple One, will launch on Friday, October 30.

Company CEO Tim Cook revealed the launch date during an earnings call with investors on Thursday.

Apple One offers access to a bunch of the tech giant’s digital services for a single monthly subscription, saving you money over individual sign-ups.

The Individual plan comprises Apple Arcade, Apple Music, Apple TV+, and iCloud (50GB) for $15 per month.

The Family plan gives up to six people access to the same services for $20 per month, along with 200GB of iCloud storage.

The biggest and priciest bundle is the Premier plan, which for $30 gets you all of the above services (including sharing with up to five others) plus Apple’s recently announced Fitness+ and News+ offerings, along with 2TB of iCloud storage.

With the Family and Premier plans, participating members can access all the included services with their own personal accounts and preferences, the company said.

The bundles allow you to make savings of between $6 and $25, depending on the plan you choose. You can find out more about the kind of savings to be had by checking out this Digital Trends article.

If you’re already an avid user of Apple’s digital services then it’s likely that one of these options is going to be a good fit.

Apple is offering a 30-day free trial for any of the individual services that you don’t already have.

Apple One makes enjoying Apple subscription services easier than ever, including Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, iCloud, and more,” Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, said last month when the company announced the subscription bundle, adding, “With Apple One, you can access the best of Apple entertainment across all your favorite devices with one simple subscription.”

A key factor is expected to be the level of interest developers show in creating custom-made apps for the mixed-reality headset, with some major platforms such as Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube deciding to hold back from offering bespoke apps.

As its name implies, Game Room is a collection of classic tabletop games like chess that Apple Vision Pro users will be able to try out in mixed reality. The Apple Vision Pro's spatial computing allows for a three-dimensional interface in which players can interact with game pieces or cards using just their hands. At launch, Game Room will include Chess, Solitaire, Hearts, Yacht, and Sea Battle (a take on Battleship), although its developers plan to add more games after launch.
