User level: Level 1 (10 points)Apple TV+ not showing the “Apple TV” tab on other devices than iPhone.
I recently got access to the Apple TV sub via iCloud+
I can watch every special Apple TV program with my iPhone. When I try to access those films it doesn’t even show up on my TV or iPad.
iPad or TV app(Samsung) only shows the rent or purchase options.
Yes, all devices are on the same iCloud. I tried to change password, login/logout.

It looks like the issue is a mix-up between two versions with the same name.
The subscription only covers Apple Originals. The title in your screenshot, Korku Burnu (Cape Fear), is a brand new Apple Original TV series, which is completely free for you to watch (just press the black Oynat/Play button!).
However, if you are accidentally selecting the famous 1991 movie version starring Robert De Niro, that is a third-party film. Apple doesn't own it, so the app will ask you to rent or buy it.
When you search for it, make sure you choose the one labeled "TV Programı" (TV Show) with the Apple TV+ logo, not the one labeled "Film"

Like if I want to watch Apple Original movie, when I type the film name into my iPad’s search bar it doesn’t even show up.
