You can enjoy a relaxing selection of Calm content directly from your television by downloading Calm for Apple TV. The app is available to download in the "Health & Fitness" category of the Apple TV App Store.
No Login Required (Free Access)
There is currently no login option for Calm on Apple TV. All content available in the Apple TV app can be enjoyed completely for free without signing into a Calm account! This free selection includes:
The Daily Calm
A library of guided meditations
Calm Music
A selection of our most popular Sleep Stories
Please note: Because there is currently no way to log in to your account, our complete Premium library is not accessible directly through the native Apple TV app.
Pro Tip: How to Play Premium Content on Your TV (AirPlay)
If you are a Calm Premium member and want to listen to our full, unrestricted library of content through your television speakers, you can easily use Apple AirPlay as a workaround! Just open the Calm app on your iPhone or iPad, start playing any Premium session, and tap the AirPlay icon to cast the audio directly to your Apple TV.
How to Watch Background Scenes
All of Calm's beautiful background scenes can be played from the Apple TV app.
To watch them, open the Calm app and simply stop using your remote for a few seconds. The controls and text descriptions on the screen will fade away, leaving you with just the background scene to watch.
You can also manually launch the Full-Screen option.
Using Apple TV "Top Shelf" Shortcuts
You can drag the Calm app from your main list of apps up to the very top row of your home screen (referred to as the "Top Shelf").
If you add Calm to your Top Shelf, highlighting the app will allow you to quickly view our content categories and launch the Daily Calm right from your home screen.
Things to Know & Troubleshooting
Session History: Because there is not yet a login option available for Apple TV, the sessions you listen to on your television will not be logged or synced to your Calm account's session history.
Sequential Programs: Individual sessions in our multi-day meditation programs (such as 7 Days of Calm) must be completed in chronological order. For example, you must complete Day 1 on the Apple TV before you can move on to Day 2.
Loading Errors: If you see an error message or a button asking you to reload content, please ensure you have a strong internet connection and try again.
