I've been an Apple One subscriber for over three years now. For the past few months, as soon as you open the TV+ app, a Peacock ad starts playing really loud.




I’m wondering what platform you are using TV+ on.

An Apple TV.

So weird I don’t have anything like that on mine

Maybe you’re not an Apple TV+ subscriber, then.

I am

Then I don’t know what to tell you. I just opened the app again, and right there in the home section I’m seeing an ad for the Super Bowl in Peacock. If you don’t get that, great, but I’m far from the only one complaining about it.

All I see is shrinking I. Home and Apple TV page. May e you have peacock linked? I do t use peacock

You can control what apps are allowed to put trailers in the home screen.

It sounds like the OP is complaining about Apple when they should be complaining about Peacock.


I don’t have Peacock either.

It would be great if folks would stop assuming this is on me and not Apple. There are Peacock ads in the TV app Home Screen, and they are targeted to One Family and Premier subscribers.


We are assuming it’s you because nobody else sees it nor does it seem to be reported on. Something doesn’t add up.

Look it up in Reddit, then [0]. Or re-read this thread. I’m far from the only one having this experience.
