Watch Sky Q on Samsung Smart TV - how it works

The new Sky Q not only runs on the Sky receivers, but also on the Samsung Smart TV and other devices. In our instructions, we show you how to use Sky Q without a receiver.

Samsung Smart TV: How do I stream Sky Q?

With a Sky account, you can operate 3 devices with Sky Q and 2 devices with Sky Go in parallel. If you use Sky Q on more than one device, you no longer need a second card, but you still have to pay a further 10 euros per month.

• In order to watch Sky Q in parallel on several devices, a second receiver for 149 euros is no longer necessary. A Smart TV from Samsung is completely sufficient for this.
• The Sky Q app is only compatible with Samsung TVs with the Tizen operating system from 2015 onwards. Unfortunately, older TVs are not supported.

Use Sky Q on Samsung Smart TVs

• To watch Sky Q on Samsung's Smart TV, you just have to install the app. To do this, press the colorful "Smart Hub" button on the remote control. You can then search for Sky Q in the "Apps" category.
• While not all Sky Q content was available in the Samsung version at the start of the app, Sky has since improved. On-demand content as well as live sports and live TV are available in the app.
• Many important functions were still missing when the app was launched. Autoplay, restart and Co. are now also available on Samsung TVs. If you miss an important function, check the settings of the app.
