What is included in Apple One?
Apple One comprises of six services.
These are:
- Apple Music – a music streaming service
- Apple TV+ – a TV and movie streaming service
- Apple Arcade – a premium video gaming service

- Apple News+ – a premium news service
- Apple Fitness+ – a video-based personal training service
Not all Apple One subscriptions will include all six services.
The two cheapest options only include the top four.
How much does Apple One cost?
It depends on which tier you opt for.
There are three different options: Individual, Family and Premier.
The first two only include Music, TV+, Arcade and iCloud+.
But with Family, you can share with up to five other people, and you get 200GB of iCloud storage versus 50GB.
Upgrade to Premier and your iCloud storage skyrockets to a whopping 2TB.
And you also get Apple News+ and Apple Fitness+ bundled in.
Here's how much each tier costs per month:
- Apple One Individual – £16.95
- Apple One Family – £22.95
- Apple One Premier – £32.95
