Sky Sports +

I'm a Sky Stream customer and can't find the answers to the following questions and your help would be appreciated:

 

1. Is Sky Sports + available on Sky Go?

2. I know the Sky Sports App has been upgraded so how many log ins are allowed to watch it on that platform via an iPad? Two Sky Go 'lives' are the standard feature.

 

Thanks.

Sky Stream pucks do not count as a Sky Go use login.

So you could say you have three, two for SKY ago watching and one for watching on your puck.

 

If you own one SkybStream  puck it gives you two Sky Go (inc Sky Sports app) devices.

Adding another puck (along with the Whole Home pack) gives you 4 Sky Go (including Sky Sports app) devices.

The linear Sky Sports + channel is available via Sky Go, like the other Sky sports channels. 

The content provided via the additional streams must be watched via the Sky Sports App. Sky TV (Q/Stream/Glass) or NOW TV.

Your logins share out between the two apps when viewing live channel content.

So watching a live stream on a device running Sky Sports app is like watching Sky go on that device.

Depends on your pack offering;

 

  • On Sky Go offering you can stream on 2 devices at a time.
  • On Sky Go extra offering you can stream on 4 devices at a time.

 

If 2 devices offering, you could watch Sky Go on one device and Sky Sports app on one other device at the same time.

If 4 devices offering, you could watch on three devices with Sky Go and one  on Sky Sports app or three on Sky Sports app and one on Sky Go, or a similar mixture.

Re: Sky Sports +

Thank you. I understand  that. 

I was seeking clarity on watching Sky Sports + on Sky Stream (puck) and how many iPad devices can be used to watch Sky Sports +. Does the puck count as a log in and so mean I only have one other iPad log in or do I still have 2?

@marshdp  As per @lettice  first line of post 8 the stream puck does not count against the number of sky go logins

Re: Sky Sports +

I know I'm the issue here and understand the Sky Go rules. I'm referring to logging into the Sky Sports + app via an iPad. Not Sky Go.

@marshdp the same rules as sky go apply to all sky apps on phones and tablets not just sky go
