Sky Go App On Now Tv Stick



Some things are just made to be watched on a big screen. So, when it comes to Sky Go, there are times you want to ditch that laptop, tablet or smartphone and kick back in front of a TV. Here’s how to stream Sky Go on your TV.

The best thing about the NOW Smart Stick and NOW Box is the NOW app, which can give you: The latest on demand and live movies with a Cinema Membership. 11 Sky Sports channels with a Sports Membership. Unfortunately, Sky is yet to add any kind of casting function to the Sky Go app – as you can do with other streaming services like Netflix or Amazon – and this means there’s no way to shift.

Sky Go has been around for some time now and it’s gone through several iterations, including some confusing crossovers with the Sky Q app. The app’s main function is letting you watch your Sky package over the internet – a super useful feature when you’re away from home or just not in the same room as your Sky box.

A lack of a Sky Go app on smart TVs doesn’t help the situation either.
