After the leaky bucket that was this year’s Apple September Launch Event, not many people were surprised to see the existence of Apple One; an all-encompassing subscription that bundles some of Apple’s more popular services into one.
Apple is offering Apple One on three different plants; individual, family and premiere. Individual and family comes with Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and 50GB of iCloud Storage. That costs US$15 per month (or US$20 per month if you are on family, and then you get six logins and 200GB of iCloud).
Premiere gives you the whole Apple hog; all of the above plus Apple’s new Fitness+ service, 2TB of cloud storage and Apple News+.
Apple Fitness+ was another new service announced by Apple at last night’s event. It puts a personal trainer in your back pocket, and will sync with your Apple Watch to deliver custom video workouts. It’s pretty slick.
“Apple One makes enjoying Apple subscription services easier than ever, including Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, iCloud, and more,” said Apple’s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services Eddy Cue.
“With Apple One, you can access the best of Apple entertainment across all your favorite devices with one simple subscription.”
Apple One is destined to launch in over 100 countries by the end of the year. While the UAE and Saudi Arabia are not on the list of countries where it will roll out first, we do expect it to follow in by November/December.
