Why StreamFab Apple TV Downloader?

Apple TV's FairPlay DRM

Apple TV+ downloads expire — your $9.99/month doesn't buy permanent access

Picture this: you board a cross-country flight and open the Apple TV+ app to continue watching Severance — only to find your downloaded episode has expired. Apple TV+'s FairPlay system enforces a 30-day download window and requires you to finish any started episode within 48 hours.

Downloads are restricted to iPhone and iPad only; you cannot transfer files to a laptop, TV, or any other player. On top of that, Apple TV+ originals licensed from third parties can be pulled from the service at any time, with no guarantee they'll return. If you want a real, permanent copy of the Apple TV+ content you love, native downloads simply can't deliver it.

On-demand videos come and go on streaming services

Download Apple TV Videos Your Way

4K · Dolby Atmos

Download Apple TV in 4K with Dolby Atmos

You've been watching Severance in 4K on your living room TV and you want the same cinematic experience when you're offline. StreamFab Apple TV Downloader captures Apple TV video at your chosen resolution — 4K ultra-high definition, 1080p Full HD, or 720p HD — with no quality loss from re-encoding.

On the audio side, you can select Dolby Atmos object-based surround sound (when available in the original stream) for the most immersive home theater experience, AC3 5.1 surround for six-channel audio on your sound system, or AAC 2.0 stereo for earbuds and laptop speakers. Unlike third-party tools that transcode and degrade the source, StreamFab preserves the original bitstream fidelity so what you save matches exactly what Apple TV streams.

MP4 · MKV

Save Apple TV downloads as universal MP4 or MKV — playable on any device

You want to watch Apple TV content on your home theater system, Android TV box, or portable media player — but Apple's native download files are locked inside the Apple ecosystem and cannot be moved. StreamFab Apple TV Downloader removes that barrier by saving your Apple TV content as standard MP4 or MKV files.

MP4 delivers the widest compatibility across smartphones, smart TVs, tablets, and PCs — drop the file anywhere and it plays. MKV is the preferred choice for media servers like Plex, PlayerFab, or Jellyfin, since it preserves multiple audio tracks and subtitle streams in a single container. Both formats never expire. Copy them to any USB drive, NAS, or streaming stick and enjoy your Apple TV library on your own terms.

H.264 · H.265

Choose H.264 or H.265 encoding to balance quality and storage

When you download several seasons of an Apple TV series in 4K, storage fills up fast. DVDFab gives you a choice of two video codecs to match your setup. H.264 is the most universally compatible option — older smart TVs, Blu-ray players, tablets, and nearly every media player supports it without any extra processing.

H.265, on the other hand, delivers identical visual quality at a significantly smaller file size; a 4K Apple TV title encoded in H.265 is typically 40 to 50 percent smaller than the same title in H.264. That means more titles on your hard drive without sacrificing a single pixel of detail. Choose H.264 if compatibility is your priority, or H.265 if you want to maximize storage efficiency — DVDFab handles the encoding either way.

SRT · Embedded

Download Apple TV subtitles as SRT files or embed them in the video

Whether you're watching The Morning Show with subtitles for accessibility or using an Apple TV episode to practice a foreign language, having the right subtitle track matters. StreamFab Apple TV Downloader lets you select your preferred subtitle language before downloading and saves those tracks in two ways.

As a standalone SRT file, the subtitle works with any player — VLC, Plex, Kodi, PlayerFab — and you can turn it on or off freely during playback. Alternatively, StreamFab can embed the subtitle directly into the MP4 or MKV container, so there is no separate file to manage and the subtitle plays automatically on smart TVs or media players that do not support external SRT files. Apple TV series that offer multiple language tracks — English, Spanish, French, and others — are all supported.

The Complete Apple TV Offline Experience

Auto-Download New Episodes on Schedule

Add Apple TV series to your schedule queue and StreamFab downloads new episodes automatically — daily or weekly — the moment they're released, so your offline library stays current without any manual effort.

Batch Download Full Seasons Fast

Queue entire Apple TV seasons in one go. StreamFab processes multiple titles simultaneously so your complete offline library is ready well before your next flight or commute — no babysitting downloads one by one.

Pre-Select Audio and Subtitle Language

Set your preferred audio track and subtitle language once in StreamFab's settings. Every subsequent Apple TV download automatically applies those choices, saving you from manually configuring each title in your queue.

Your Apple TV Library

Save Metadata

Preserve full metadata so your media server recognizes every Apple TV title

You use Plex or PlayerFab to browse your movie and TV collection and you want your Apple TV downloads to look just as polished as everything else — complete with the right cover art, cast information, episode names, and season numbers.

StreamFab Apple TV Downloader automatically saves metadata alongside every download, including the title, full cast list, season and episode number, and cover artwork. When you add the files to Plex, Kodi, Jellyfin, or PlayerFab, the media server recognizes them instantly and displays everything correctly. No more folders full of cryptically named video files — your Apple TV library looks as organized and professional as the streaming service itself.

What Apple TV Fans Say About StreamFab

Home Theater Enthusiast

A colleague recommended StreamFab after I complained about it. I was skeptical at first, but they mentioned it was built by the StreamFab team — a company I'd already heard of through their disc software — with over 20 years in the video space. I tried the 3 free downloads to test it out, no credit card needed. I downloaded Season 1 of Severance as a 4K MKV file with Dolby Atmos audio. The file quality on my OLED through Plex is genuinely stunning — noticeably richer than the compressed stream I used to get on my old iPad.

I found StreamFab through a tech blog focused on offline media tools. The setup took about ten minutes and I was downloading immediately. I saved several Ted Lasso episodes as 1080p MP4 files with AC3 5.1 audio — they play perfectly on the school projector connected to a Windows laptop, with no Apple device anywhere in the loop. I also downloaded English closed-caption subtitle tracks and embedded them directly in the MP4 files for accessibility, which my students appreciate.

I save everything at 4K with the H.265 codec, which gives me full visual detail at a much more manageable file size — choosing H.265 over H.264 cut my storage usage by roughly 40 percent on 4K titles. That matters when you're archiving dozens of reference films on a student budget with a 2TB drive.
