Try rebooting your Xbox at the mains or delete the app then install it again.

Note: When rebooting your Xbox you need to power off for 5 minutes to let the cache clear before powering on again

Re: Sky go not working on x box

Same problem here. Used to work fine on Xbox and mobile. Still works on mobile but not on Xbox. 

message is:

 

"you can't use sky go on this device yet. You'll need a sky q multi screen sky glass home or sky go extra subscription to access sky go on this device"

does your account fulfill this requirement as the NEW Sky go App on Console has corrected the validation that the old app was letting people through incorrectly

If the case is true that the app update has fixed a bug and now you cant watch sky on a console without paying enough more money a month this is a joke. Something that has worked for 8+ years fine and is just the same as streaming for the PC next to it!

You don't seem to have the required Sky Go Extra/Multiscreen subscriptions

Re: Sky go stopped working on Xbox series X

Ive had Sky Go Extra and was given it as a Sky Diamond VIP along time ago, why is it not there now?

I'm still a Sky Diamond VIP with more than 22 years of holding a sky account.

Sky has been under different ownership since 2018.  It's not unusual for a new owner to review business practices and look to remedy errors where these have financial costs.

Re: Sky go stopped working on Xbox series X

I understand this, but also 2018 was 5 years ago, thats no longer new owners and how does the console version cost any more than watching this on a PC or mobile device? The xbox is used in a games room next to a PC, so streaming will still happen there just on a different device.
