The Sky Go app is now available for download on Apple TV HD and Apple TV 4K. Millions of UK Sky customers have been looking forward to this for years.
Sky (the parent company of Comcast, which also launched a similar tvOS Xfinity Stream app in the US last month) is the largest premium TV provider in the UK. The Sky Go app now lets you use your Apple TV instead of a cable box, streaming live channels over the Internet at home and (as the name suggests) on the go.
Until now, Sky Go has been available on Apple mobile devices such as iPhone and iPad. But, obviously, the Apple TV set-top box became the most natural place.
Somewhat confusingly, the Sky Go app on Apple TV+ can only be used by Sky Q Multiscreen or Sky Glass Whole Home customers. This is somewhat disappointing for customers who have bought Sky Go as an add-on for their mobile devices and, of course, are waiting for distribution to Apple TV.
Not all channels available on the Sky cable box are available through the Go app, but many are available. In total, you can stream over 100 live channels and receive box sets of the best series on demand.
If the customer has a Sky Cinema package, you can also stream these movie channels through the Sky Go app. Likewise, stream sports channels for the Premier League, cricket and more with a Sky Sports membership.
The Sky Go interface on Apple TV includes an EPG that resembles what users have come to expect from Sky, complete with a familiar blue and white theme.
The Sky Go app is now available for free download on the App Store.
