Sky streamer NOW comes to Google TV devices
Sky has extended the capabilities of its streaming service NOW. As of this week, it is available on Google TV devices, including Chromecast with Google TV and eight of the UK’s biggest smart TV brands as it expands across Android TV OS devices.
In addition to Chromecast with Google TV, the roll-out will make the NOW app available on other Android TV OS devices like NVidia Shield, joining the existing streaming stick line-up of Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV and Roku.
As well as streaming sticks, the app will be made available on Google TVs from brands including Sharp, Phillips, Panasonic, Bush, Hitachi, Toshiba and JVC. Users simply download the app from the Google Play Store, add their memberships and start streaming.
Commenting, NOW’s MD Marina Storti said: “With a wealth of incredible home entertainment devices out there, we’re thrilled to be making it easier than ever to get NOW’s app and start streaming. Whether you want to watch latest Premier League derby, binge on House of the Dragon or distract the family with blockbusters like Sing 2, NOW and our contract free memberships are just a download away.”
Over the last two years the NOW app has expanded availability across devices from brands including Sony, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon, Samsung, PlayStation and Xbox.
