Question about using AppleTV+ in Firefox browser
For the life of me I am unable to find the "up next" area to watch things I have added to watch. The left top of the screen has the AppleTV+ logo, and the right top has the settings. Can any of you help me get this sorted?
So I think it's just not available on the web? I just tried in Firefox and Chrome and neither has any obvious way to access the Up Next section.
The more I thought about it, the more that makes sense...on the Apple TV, iPad, etc. the app pulls content from other sources for the Up Next list and launches apps directly when you try and play that content. Maybe they just didn't want to implement that on the web?
And it would be weird to have different Up Next lists for the web and the app. Obviously that wouldn't be a great user experience. Still, they could add a section that's just called "Apple TV+ Watch List" or something like that.
EDIT: Some more searching lead me to this Apple Support thread, which seems to indicate that the feature isn't available on the web.
Thanks for checking. My iPhone has the up next list, but that's not helpful in the browser because the browser does not have a search function. I guess I'll cancel after the free trial is over. Pity, because I spent quite a bit of time selecting what to watch (in the browser!) and was looking forward to it.
Yeah, it’s a weird service. There’s lots of little quirks that you don’t have to deal with on other services. I only have it because it comes with the Apple One subscription. A watch list is a pretty basic thing that you’d think everyone would expect.
Regarding your edit to the support thread: What was your search criteria? I spent a bit of time googling, but my google foo failed me.
I tried a few different things, but “Apple TV web browser up next” is what got me to that thread but remember that Google shows different results to different people, so it may not get you the same results…
