Good news for the owners of a Sony Smart TV (well, for the moment of a specific model of the house, of course). It turns out that the Japanese company has finally opened the doors to Apple TV +, service streaming content from the house on the block, so that from now on you will be able to find the entry app to the platform in its main menu. But what TV are we talking about? how will the update be done?
Apple TV+, Cupertino's catalog of series and movies
It does not have the extension or the punch of Netflix, but it is still another alternative in the world of on-demand content. Yes, we mean Apple TV +, the series service and streaming apple movies Launched a year ago with the aim of expanding its wide range of services and, incidentally, scratching a little into the promising world of this type of platform.
Its growth has been small during this 2020 although it has not been orphans of powerful titles (some like The Morning Show with Emmy nominations, even) and the premiere of other interesting proposals such as the one announced (and promising) adaptation of Foundation, the great work of science fiction written by Isaac Asimov.
Little by little it is also reaching new corners to expand. This is the case of the news that concerns us today, since the service access application is incorporated into one of the Smart TV catalogs most important and popular in our market, that of Sony, specifically landing on a famous model of the house.
The XH90 series, the first chosen
Specifically it is the XH90 series from the Japanese company which will shortly receive an update with Apple TV +. This has been announced by Sony itself, indicating that it will soon be possible to access the Apple TV app on its aforementioned televisions to enjoy the service, viewing all its premiere movies as well as personalized and selected recommendations.
Deployment started yesterday same in Europe and, as usual, it will have a progressive distribution for the different countries in which the Apple platform is available. If you have a Smart TV from the Sony XH90 series, you should soon see the warning of a automatic update for your download and install. You can also search manually, if you're dying of impatience, by going to the TV menu settings.
Obviously this is only the beginning. Sony has confirmed that the Apple TV app will also launch on certain models of televisions in its catalog belonging to 2018 and in the mayoria of the 2019 and 2020 models at the end of this year, so today's protagonist arrival on Smart TV is nothing more than the starting gun. Before the end of 2020, therefore, it should be a regular on the menus of the vast majority of the Asian company's televisions.
