Apple TV+ is launching on Sky Glass and Sky Q, which means Sky customers will be able to seamlessly watch Apple TV+ hits like Ted Lasso and The Morning Show.

Both Sky and Apple announced today that the companies had entered a new long-term agreement that will see Apple TV+ feature on Sky Glass and Sky Q as early as the end of 2021.

The announcement will also see NOW TV being integrated with billing and in-app purchases across iOS and tvOS.

Apple TV+ will join Sky’s other recently updated streaming partnerships with ITV, Channel 4 and the BBC.

Sky's customers in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria and Italy will have access to all of Apple TV+ hit shows.

This includes popular programmes like Slow Horses starting academy award winner Gary Oldman and The Essex Serpent featuring famous faces Claire Danes and Tom Hiddleston.

Customers will be able to watch the latest drama releases like Succession and keep up to date on the biggest live sporting events.

Dana Strong, Group Chief Executive, Sky said:“With the addition of Apple TV+ our customers can now enjoy phenomenal shows like The Morning Show, Trying and Ted Lasso, together with our own award-winning Sky Originals, and the best content and apps from our partners, all on Sky Glass, the streaming TV from Sky, or Sky Q, our market-leading Sky box.”

When is Apple TV+ coming to Sky?

Apple TV+ will be available on both Sky Glass and Sky Q in the coming months.

If you are a Sky customer in the UK, you will also be able to access Sky Go on Apple TV devices in mid-2022.

NOW users in the UK will be able to both sign up as well as purchase a NOW Membership via the NOW app on Apple devices. 

This agreement between the two companies is part of a wider global agreement between Comcast Corporation and Apple.

It will bring Apple content to millions more customers across Comcast’s global entertainment platforms, and also give Xfinity TV and Sky customers the option to access their pay-TV programming on Apple TV devices too.
