Sky Sports Plus. on Sky Go App on PS5

[AP92]

Hi, 

The Sky Go app on PS5 doesn't allow red button matches from this season EFL Championship matches. 

What will happen with the Sky Sports Plus new channel. will I be able to choose which match I want to watch on the Sky Go App on PS5? 

Thanks

@AP92  You will need to download the specific sky sports mobile app as the extra streams will only be available on that not sky go

There is no other sky sports app on the playstation store other than Sky go, so that is incorrect advice

Correct, because the extra streams available via Sky Sports + are ONLY available via the Sky Sports app on Sky Q, Sky Glass, Sky Stream, via the mobile/tablet version of the Sky Sports app, and via NOW TV.

They cannot be watched via Sky Go so therefore cannot be viewed via games consoles, laptops or PCs.

Are there any plans to put the sky sports mobile app on game consoles?

Surely it’s got to be available on sky go as people pay for that but it’s free on sky sports app?

Looks like Sky are not wanting it freely available on extra TVs ie via PC, Console etc...

The sport app is only available on mobile devices own screens so no casting etc...

iPads/tablets are classed as mobile devices, because they can be used outside the house 🙂

And i take it there is nothing for Sky + HD users to be able to access the games either via the red button (as used to be the case and worked fine for years, so perfectly doable)?

@Andy229  Sky + hd customers with a full sky sports subscription can access the extra streams via the sky sports app for mobile devices (phones and tablets only)

It's crazy. You pay £100s a month to have all the football etc, and you can not even watch it on your console, even if you pay extra for sky go extra! All other broadcasters allow it!  I'm a sky customer, but it's no wonder people buy firesticks and watch illegal streams when you can't even watch it on your devices, even if you pay upwards of £100 a month. Not to mention that the first thing it says on the sky go app, on a console is "stream live sport". Once this contract runs out, I won't be renewing that's for sure.

@Thesladman  Which is correct with regards to the linear channels, it's only the extra streams customers can't access via sky go
