@Adamski1  No, is the short answer.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Best option would be an Apple TV ....

 

there are ways to do parts of casting on a firestick but it's not the greatest

@Adamski1 

You would need to connect a device that supports casting to one of HDMI inputs on Sky Glass.

 

Examples

Chromecast With Google TV 4K dongle

Firestick/Roku etc

Apple TV 4K Box this would be best to use with a iPhone.

 

I have Apple TV 4K box connected to one of the HDMI inputs on my 65 inch Sky Glass.

It's very easy to cast from iPhone to a Apple TV 4K Box

Re: Can I cast my iPhone to SkyGlass?

So if I use a casting device connected to one of the HDMI ports, is there also a way to play Music from my iphone through the Sky Glass TV/Speakers?    And does a Sky Glass TV allow the connection on additional speakers/soundbar ?

Thanks

Yes

Only by using an ARC audio extractor, which disables the onboard speakers.

You can now as sky has released a new feature called AirPlay and you can now share photos videos and screen mirror to your sky glass

AirPlay is a twenty year old technology developed and owned by Apple: Sky is licensing it on Glass.
