You may or may not find this surprising, but Apple has just approved the official Google Play Movies & TV app for iOS devices.

The free app requires iOS 6.0 and a compatible iDevice and “allows you to watch movies and TV shows purchased or rented on Google Play.”

Users can instantly watch their movies and shows on the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch wherever they are, but they cannot buy or rent movies without visiting Google Play store on a computer.

However, by using Google Play Movies & TV the content can be watched from any device over Wi-Fi. Streaming video currently requires a Wi-Fi connection (cellular not compatible), and the service is available to customers in the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom, according to Google.

Download Google Play Movies & TV on any iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad with the aforementioned requirements and start enjoying your favorite movies and TV shows today.
