12 Days of Gifts App Released in USA for First Time By Apple

Published

on

Apple is giving away gifts and has released an App to do just that. The 12 Days of Gifts App is now available, but you won’t see anything but a countdown and a FAQ until December 26. That’s when Apple’s 12 Days of Gifts kicks off. Each day from December 26 through January 6 users will be offered a free movie, TV Show, music, iBook, or App. Accept the offer and download the free gift.

This is the first holiday season that the 12 Days of Gifts will be available in the U.S. It has been available previously in Europe, Canada, and other countries. Gifts will vary by region and the FAQ (see below) offers some advice for those traveling to and from different regions during the holidays. The 12 Days of Gifts App is a universal App and is free to download at this link.

Once you install the App you are asked to confirm the store for your region and you can set Push Notifications to let you know when a gift offer is available.

12 Days of Gift FAQ

I’m traveling outside of the country or region in which I have my iTunes store account. Does that affect the countdown and when new gifts arrive?

Because the countdown and new gifts are based on the timezone associated with your account, new gifts will be available at midnight in that timezone.

How do I download my gift?

To download a gift, tap View Gift and then tap Free. To download gifts, you must be signed in with your Apple ID. To download books, you must have the free iBooks app installed. Content availability may vary per region.

Why am I getting an error saying gifts aren’t available in my country or region?

This can happen if your country or region settings in the 12 Days of Gifts app don’t match your settings in iTunes. Check that your country or region in the 12 Days of Gifts app matches the country or region associated with the billing address of your Apple ID.

Where can I find the gifts I’ve downloaded?

On your computer, you can find your music, TV and film content in your iTunes library and books in your iBooks library. On your iOS device, you can find your music in the Music app, your TV episodes and films in the Videos app, and your books in the iBooks app. Apps will appear on your home screen. Content availability may vary per region.

Why am I having trouble downloading my app over my mobile network?

You must have a WiFi connection to download files over 100 MB.

How can I get enough storage to download my gift on my iPhone, iPad or iPod?

If you don’t have enough free storage, you can delete other apps or media from your device to create space for your gift. If you don’t want to delete any apps or media from your iOS device, you can download your gift on your computer. Note that some content may be designed for iPad or iPhone, and may not be supported on a computer. Learn more.

How can I access my gifts on my computer, Apple TV or other iOS devices?

With iTunes in the Cloud, your gifts and other content can be accessed with your other devices, including your computer and Apple TV. Note that iTunes in the Cloud is only available in certain countries and regions, and some content may not be supported on all devices. Learn more about iTunes in the Cloud.

Film rentals are not transferable to other devices. Learn more about film rentals.

Why is my book in a different language?

Book offers in Canada are available in French and English. You can choose to download your gift in either language. For additional help, go to the Books section of iTunes Support.

How long will it take my film to download?

Your download time will depend on the speed of your Internet connection. Learn more.

Can I download my film later?

Yes. You can download your film later from the Videos app or your iTunes library.

How long do I have to watch my film rental?

You have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your film, and 24 hours (in the U.S.) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you’ve started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the film will disappear from your iTunes library. Learn more about film rentals.

Why can’t I access my free film rental from my other devices?

If you download a rented film on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later) or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device or computer. Learn more about film rentals.

How can I watch my film with subtitles or in a different language?

Many films in the iTunes Store feature subtitles and audio tracks in a variety of languages.

For additional help, go to the Movies & TV section of iTunes Support.

I don’t see the free TV episode. Where do I find my free TV episode?

The free episode appears at the top of the playlist highlighted in blue. Click on this episode and you will be able to download it free of charge.

How can I buy more TV episodes from the series I’m watching?

You can buy episodes individually on the iTunes Store or you can purchase all remaining episodes in the season. Learn more.

    Except to use this app, you have to be on iOS7. Looks like an “enticement” to get you to upgrade, even though you may take a performance hit.

    I hate gifts with strings attached like that.
