Our quick take
The PBS Living free trial is straightforward: seven days to explore a lifestyle library without commitment. We liked that the price after trial is just $2.99/mo, which makes it an easy add-on to Prime Video Channels or Apple TV Channels. Because the catalog rotates, what you see during the trial is representative of the ongoing experience—new arrivals show up, and some titles leave. In our testing, browsing and playback felt native to each platform, which keeps things simple if you already stream there.
What you get with the trial
During the PBS Living free trial, you can watch on‑demand series and films centered on lifestyle topics. The catalog mixes originals and licensed titles, and it changes over time, so each month can feel a little different. It’s a good way to gauge whether the range of lifestyle programming matches your interests without paying up front.
Access happens entirely inside the platform you choose (Prime Video Channels or Apple TV Channels). That means familiar search, watchlists, and player controls—as you’d expect from a Channel experience. Because the offer is a Standard trial, there are no special tiers or add-ons to navigate; you simply test the included PBS Living plan.
Who this trial is best for
This trial is ideal for viewers who already use Prime Video or Apple TV and want to sample a lifestyle-focused Channel in the Video SVOD category. If you prefer on‑demand series and films over live TV and like the idea of a rotating selection, the PBS Living free trial fits. It also suits budget-conscious streamers who want to keep monthly costs low at $2.99/mo after the seven days. Cord-cutters who organize their streaming inside a single platform account will appreciate that it all stays in one app.
