After what may have seemed like an endless wait for Sky customers in the UK and elsewhere in Europe, the Sky Go app is now available to download on Apple TV.
The availability of the Sky Go app means that subscribers will be able to stream Sky-streamed content live to their Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K devices, rather than having to rely on the Sky set-top box or equivalent app on their iPhone or iPad. .
Over 100 channels can be streamed through the Go app, along with on-demand access to box sets of popular TV series, all through the familiar Blue Sky programming interface. However, it does not include the full range of Sky channels, and there are other restrictions to be aware of.
The Go app is only available to Sky Q Multiscreen and Sky Glass Whole Home customers, and allows them to access content included in a Sky Cinema or Sky Sports package, but the app cannot be used on Apple TV for stream content if the Sky Go account subscription was an add-on purchase for a mobile device.
The availability of Sky Go on Apple TV will be a welcome addition for many customers, given that the app has been on iPhone and iPad for years. Last December, Apple’s own TV+ app was rolled out to Sky Glass TV and Sky Q set-top boxes, giving subscribers access to Apple TV+ movies and shows on the Sky platform.
