"Watch TV online" covers a lot of different technology. Here's a straightforward explanation of what's actually happening.
Streaming replaces a broadcast signal with a regular internet connection and an app — closer to using any other app on your phone or TV than to traditional cable.
The app is what connects your account to playback on a given device, which is why device compatibility matters so much. See our Devices page for what's supported.
Once you understand these basics, setup and troubleshooting get a lot easier — and if you're still deciding on a plan, our guide on matching a plan to your household can help. Our How It Works page walks through the ApolloStreamTV process step by step.
Compare subscription options and device support to find the plan that fits your household.
