For Apple TV help, start with Apple’s official support hub: support.apple.com/apple-tv. Choose Get Support for guided troubleshooting and contact options, Start a repair for hardware service, or Subscriptions and purchases for Apple TV+ billing, cancellations and refunds. In the United States, Apple currently lists 1-800-275-2273 for technical support; readers elsewhere should use Apple’s regional contact page.
First, identify which “Apple TV” you mean
Apple TV can mean the Apple TV 4K or Apple TV HD box, the Apple TV app, or the Apple TV+ subscription. The correct support route depends on the problem.
| Problem | Best first route |
|---|---|
| Remote, setup, HDMI, network, power, tvOS or Apple TV box failure | Apple TV support hub; use live support or repair when guided |
| Apple TV app playback, library, downloads or purchases | Apple TV support hub, then Get Support |
| Apple TV+ subscription, cancellation or charge | Subscriptions and purchases or Apple’s refund request page |
| Television firmware, TV ports or a non-Apple streaming device | The television or device manufacturer |
| Subscription billed by Roku, Amazon, a cable company or another provider | The company that appears as the billing provider |
The fastest way to contact Apple TV support online
- Open https://support.apple.com/apple-tv.
- Scroll to Get Support and select Start now.
- Identify the Apple TV product or service and describe the issue.
- Follow the guided options. Depending on your country, issue and eligibility, Apple may offer instructions, Messages chat, a phone call or repair.
Apple’s guided support application is also available at getsupport.apple.com. It requires JavaScript, and the contact choices are generated for the situation rather than displayed as one universal list.

#1 Best Overall
- 4K High Dynamic Range (Dolby Vision and HDR10) for stunning picture quality
- Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 surround sound
- A10X Fusion chip for ultra-fast graphics and performance
- Voice search by asking the Siri Remote
- The number is for U.S. technical support, not a worldwide number.
- Mobile carriers may charge for a toll-free call, and some carriers may not complete it.
- Some numbers work only when dialed from their associated country or region.
- Do not substitute 1-800-MY-APPLE; Apple identifies that number for online-store sales and order support, not the normal technical-support route.
Outside the United States
Open https://support.apple.com/contact, select your country or region, and choose the available phone or online option. Apple does not promise live support in every location, and regional telephone numbers and availability may change.
Contact Apple through Messages chat
On Apple’s U.S. contact page, choose Chat with Apple when that option is offered. The conversation opens in the Messages app on a supported device. Chat availability can vary by country, issue type, device and Apple’s current routing. If chat is missing, use the phone option, the Apple Support app or the guided web flow instead. Save the transcript or case number if Apple provides one.

Apple TV+ subscriptions, billing and refunds
Subscriptions and payment problems
From Apple TV support, select Subscriptions and purchases for subscription management, cancellation, purchase history and payment-method help. Apple’s Media Services terms direct service, billing, subscription and Apple Account questions to Apple Support.
Requesting a refund
- Go to reportaproblem.apple.com.
- Sign in with the Apple Account used for the transaction.
- Select the relevant purchase and follow Apple’s current instructions.
A submission is a request, not a guarantee of approval. If another company charged you, Apple may not be able to reverse that transaction; inspect the receipt or bank statement and contact the listed billing provider.

- Go to Service and Repair and select Start a repair.
- Describe the fault and follow Apple’s service and coverage instructions.
Use troubleshooting for pairing, updates, network, HDMI, power and setup issues. Use repair for suspected hardware failure, accidental damage or a box that will not power on. My Support and Apple’s coverage tools can show information about an existing repair or coverage. A television made by Samsung, LG or another company must generally be serviced by that manufacturer when the fault is in the TV itself.
