Sky go app not working Iphone

Bal2 — Fri, 23 Feb 2024 13:44:34 GMT

My sky go app is not working on my apple device it keeps saying 'because of a technical issue, you cannot watch this channel' I can not login in to sky go on my iphone 13. all my other devices work fine with sky go. I have tried many different approaches i.e restart phone, delete app reinstall app and keeping both device and app to latest update. it has been like this for months.

Please advise and help with this issue

A few things to try:

Try signing out of the app then reboot your device and the sign back into the app.

It has become a joke. It hasn't worked on my apple devices for 3 months. I phoned to seek help and sky told me that there was an issue with their app not working with newer IOS devices and the issue is with their app developers.
Still not working. IOS is clearly far mor sophisticated than sky. We've been a customer for 25 years and I'm considering cancelling as there are other things to spend £110 a month on. Very poor service provision.

When you say it hasn't worked what is actually happening ?

Due to a technical problem you are unable to watch this channel. Please try again later. I've had this message for 3 months now.

Sky Go remains unavailable and it has been 5 months now and sky told me the app developers were working on it and it but they didn't know how long it would be. I haven't seen it advertised in the media for a while and sky are driving their new streaming platform hard (sky glass streaming). I think sky go is a thing of the past.
