Sky’s NOW TV Available on YouView

LONDON: YouView customers can now access Sky’s streaming movie service NOW TV through a new app launched on the IPTV platform.

NOW TV launched last month in the U.K. across computers, iPhones, iPads and select Android devices. The service provides Internet-delivered access to Sky Movies content. Customers who have already registered for NOW TV can access the service through YouView for no additional cost. Sky Sports content is due to launch on NOW TV before the end of the year. Later, shows from Sky 1, Sky Atlantic, Sky Arts and Sky Living will become available as well.

Simon Creasey, the director of NOW TV, said: “We know there’s growing demand from U.K. consumers to access high-quality pay TV and Internet-connected devices provide an innovative new way to help satisfy that demand. We’re delighted that NOW TV is now available on YouView and to be providing current free-to-air homes a fresh new choice.”
