Apple Music and Apple TV are experiencing an outage, according to Apple’s System Status page. The outage was logged on Apple’s own system at around 2:53PM ET, and is currently affecting both of the company’s streaming services, along with Apple TV’s Channels feature, which lets you subscribe to and watch other streaming services inside the Apple TV app.
Only “some” users are affected by the outage, according to Apple. Anecdotally, multiple members of Engadget’s staff were still able to stream content as usual. On DownDetector, reports of issues with Apple TV and Apple Music first appeared right around 2:33PM ET, a little before Apple officially confirmed the outage on its own site.
Engadget has reached out to Apple for more information on the outage and how many people are impacted. We’ll update this article if we hear back.
Apple relies on cloud services from third-party companies like Amazon and is ultimately only as stable the data centers it’s paying for. In October 2025, the company was impacted by the same Amazon Web Services outage that took down services like Alexa, Fortnite and Snapchat for hours.
