What’s New on Apple TV+ in August 2025: ‘Chief of War’ and More

On Apple TV+, “less is more” isn’t just a mantra — it’s a programming strategy the company has utilized since it launched.

That’s why Apple TV+’s August lineup looks so empty, especially if you compare it with rivals Netflix and Prime Video.
