When Apple TV+ / Apple subscriptions charges you
Every Apple-billed subscription — iCloud+, Apple TV+, Apple Music, Apple One, plus any third-party app subscribed through the App Store — renews on its own cycle from its own signup date. Apple may also group several charges from the same account into a single "apple.com/bill" statement line, which is why one Apple charge rarely maps to one subscription.

Can you change your Apple TV+ / Apple subscriptions billing date?
No — each subscription renews on its own anniversary and Apple has no date setting. Cancel the subscription, let it expire at the end of the paid period, and resubscribe on the day you want. For iCloud+ note that downgrading storage below what you're using limits new uploads, so plan the gap.
