Apple may start offering service bundles that combine access to Apple Music, Apple TV Plus, and other services like Apple Arcade for a single monthly subscription fee, 9to5Mac discovered in the iOS 1355 beta According to the code, such bundles may appear fairly soon

Apple has long been rumored to bundle services, and a Bloomberg report last fall claimed that Apple was in talks with publishers and music producers to offer a series of content for a single monthly fee: Apple Music, Apple TV Plus, Apple News Plus, and Apple Acracde subscriptions are still separate

If all of these services were to be subscribed to separately, it would cost about $35 per month However, given that people tend to subscribe to quite a few subscriptions at once, such as Netflix, Xbox Live, and Disney Plus, the additional $35 per month would quickly add up

Thus, by offering a bundle of its services for as low as $25/month, Apple would be able to lock more people into its ecosystem A slight hurdle to this is that Apple would need to ensure that it has agreements with various publishers and music producers

However, if Apple can put together the service into an affordable and attractive package by September, it will have another way to increase the appeal of the upcoming iPhone 12 Not only will Apple fans get a new iPhone that may have a 120Hz refresh rate display, more power, and an upgraded camera system, but they will also have access to services that will complement the iPhone 12 model that will arrive in September or October may become available
