Apple One, the easiest way to get all of Apple’s subscription services in one simple plan, including Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, Apple Fitness+, and iCloud, is now rolling out to customers.
With a single subscription, customers in over 100 countries and regions can enjoy their favorite Apple services across their favorite devices, including iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, and Mac.
Customers with Apple subscriptions will be recommended the right Apple One plan for them so they can sign up with a tap from any Apple device and get even more for less.

Apple One includes a 30-day free trial for any services that customers do not already have. With Apple One, customers will receive only one invoice each month, and they can easily change or cancel their Apple One plan at any time. With the Family and Premier plans, up to six family members can access all the included services with their own personal accounts and preferences.
MacDailyNews Note: The Apple One subscription option is currently rolling out ot customers in over 100 countries and can be managed under a user’s Apple ID, iCloud, Media & Purchases “Subscriptions” tab. Look for “Get Apple One” and tap “Try It Now.”
My Apple Music subscription just renewed. Has anyone read about how they will handle included services that are already purchased?
Yes. After you upgrade to Apple One, services to which you previously subscribed will be included in Apple One one month from your Apple One signup. For example, your active Subscriptions will state:
Apple TV+
This subscription will be included in Apple One starting Nov. 20, 2020.
Apple Music Subscription
This subscription will be included in Apple One starting Nov. 20, 2020.
Etc.
Ah — but what if you paid for the ANNUAL Apple Music plan. What then?
What if, what if, what if… jeez.
It took almost 24 hours, but refunds for the prorated amounts appeared for each service that I not longer “had.”
I thought AppleOne was a temp agency.
Just realized it’s not such a great deal if you’re already getting AppleTV+ for free (well, at least until they start charging).
Good for you.
Is there a start day for Fitness+?
Choices not compelling enough for me to subscribe. I just cancelled my Netflix account because I found that I was not using it much. Same goes for this Apple One subscription. I won’t be using it much.
This was a true “no brainer” as a family with 6 members who already subscribed to 2TB of storage, AppleNews+, Apple Music, I get fitness, AppleTV and Arcade for free.
So if I subscribe now for the free month I will lose the two free months of AppleTV+ I still have coming.
I already use Music Family subscription, so I still have to pay for that unless I cancel it first for the free trial?
Also, if I am wanting to try the Fitness app and it doesn’t go live for a couple of weeks do I still get it for a month?
Maybe in a couple of weeks I’ll see…..
Me too. Since I am already have a free Apple TV plus account, switching won’t save me any money right away. What it will do is give me Apple Arcade in addition to what I already have at about the same price I’m paying now. Once my current free Apple TV plus subscription runs out I’ll be saving $5 a month and getting more stuff (ie the Apple Arcade) I would guess that no one in the family will use Apple Arcade, it really doesn’t matter if I switch now or remember to switch later, right before my free Apple TV plus subscription runs out. Since I am afraid I might forgot to switch later, I will switch right away (next Saturday, my forghtnightly bill pay day)
I don’t expect anyone to find that interesting but we seem to be sharing, so I chimed in.
If one subscribes to the $19.95 per month family plan ($239.40 / year) that includes 200GB of iCloud storage — is that 200GB total that is shared by all 6 people in the family, or is it 200GB each for every person in the family yielding 1,200GB total?
For comparison, Microsoft 365 family plan, for $99.99 per year includes 1TB of OneDrive storage, which is 1TB for each of the 6 people in the family, or a grand total of 6TB of storage. (It’s not an entertainment bundle like Apple’s. In addition to OneDrive storage, it includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote and 60 monthly minutes of Skype to Phone.)
200 GB shared.
