I've ditched sky TV and gone broadband only, I'm now using my Apple TV, Shield TV our bill has gone from £117 a month to £35 a month. On the TV guide app, I wish it would be able to deep link even further so when you click on a channel it opens up the stream directly without the extra steps. Great video as always

In Poland it’s a lot more complicated. Terrestrial tv is a mess thanks to our authoritarian government. Also no television has an app that integrates with Apple TV app. That being said with Getflix I am able to use iPlayer ITV CH4 my5 on Apple TV using UK iTunes account. Problem is despite another iTunes account is treated just like another user profile Apple does not allow British apps to be connected in polish account in TV app. I hope this be addressed in tvOS 17. Also this would be cool if such guide be available inside TV app. That being said you are watching TV on wrong hour - 2 hours later on Channel 4 there is “Countdown” with lovely Rachel Riley :)

The wife’s finally decided it’s time to bin off Sky, so yesterday with 7 days left to go and thanks to you bigging up TV Launcher I pulled the trigger and bought the app. Really impressed with it, absolutely love the top shelf functionality as that’s just brings things to another level for sheer convenience. Lots of tweeks to be made such as channel preferences and regional settings are all great additions. One thing this apps also done it make me realise just how much content I do have access to without a sub as there’s a few apps I didn’t even think had free channels available.

Great video, the TV guide is a game changer and only found out about it via your previous videos. Got stung by Sky price rises so cancelled and switched to Apple TV, works out to be cheaper and far more flexible for our viewing habits. Would never have cancelled and switched if it weren’t for your videos. We are using both sky Q and Apple alongside each other during final weeks of cancellation term and much prefer using Apple, it makes Sky feel very clunky! Definitely would recommend others switching especially if you can grab a Now TV discount so you don’t miss out on the Sky content you actually want.

New to your channel really enjoying it. I’m coming to the end of my BT contract and been looking at different ways to watch TV. My only problem with Apple TV and this method of watching TV, is that you have to search in the individual apps for a program that was earlier in the day or week, instead of being able to just select it from the TV guide as BT or SKY. Not a problem for me but the rest of the family just want to be able to select it from the guide and watch it. Which I can understand as it can be a faff in some apps.

@@stevemarruk I’ve unplugged the HDMI cable then reconnected it, seems ok now, we’ll see. We pay Sky £117 a month which is expensive, my contract end 26 June 2023, we very rarely use Sky Q now, I’ve subscribed to itvx & All 4, £80 a year, which is cheaper than Sky, trying to persuade the wife to ditch it them but she likes the way Q works, ie channels load instantly, but we don’t watch live tv just recordings ATV is very quick though, I’ve a few months to try & change her mind, ha ha

Nice let’s hope that resolved it if not try a different port or if you can fibre optics. Yeah I know the feeling the cost of living right now so we need to be paying that sort of money.

Winner, upon selecting ITV channels via TV Launcher they now open direct to the channel in ITVX rather than just stopping at the Live Channel selection area. 🥳

Tv launcher is not good as you have to have all the apps on your device so not worth the money

You only have to have the apps you watch but I’m guessing if you watch all of them then I can see what your saying

What’s the monthly subscription fee for the Apple TV for watching live tv? I am with virgin media and I own the 360 and I hate it plus virgins customers service is horrendous. I am thinking of going back to Sky but the Sky Q is quite expensive but Sky stream is kinda reasonable.

There isn’t one it’s a one off fee in the App Store it’s just a tv guide

@@stevemarruk Thanks for a great review. But looking at the App Store it comes up with several TV guides: please can you say which one it is that you showed in your review. Thanks!
@kencarruthers67142 ай бұрын
Just to add- I’m pretty sure it’s the one described as a TV Launcher for a one-off payment of £4.99 with no subscription. Correct me if I’m wrong please?
