KD-49XF9005 no iPlayer

[StuBarnes]

Hi, the BBC iPlayer app has been removed from my KD-49XF9005 running the latest 6.7140 firmware and is not available in the Google Play Store. Any ideas? I did see that iPlayer was removed from some 2014 and 2015 TVs in March 21 but this is a 2018 model. 

while I’m here I also can’t get YouView to watch All4 or the ITVhub. 

I have been disappointed with this tv which the Sony rep at my John Lewis store recommended as was also expecting Apple Airplay 2 and Apple TV app in an update in 2019 which never came. It crashes frequently and took a full factory reset and a manual update to get HDR working correctly on Disney+  Needless to say I won’t be buying another Sony TV!

Cheers,

Stu

I believe YouView was renamed to Live TV & Catchup in the last update. Do you have access to that?

Not happy that BBC iplayer has been removed as part of latest firmware update, really not happy,  Wont be purchasing another Sony device if this isnt sorted asap

What model TV and software update are you referring to? Could still be there and just be the new interface/naming for YouView.

Some TVs had it removed, but those are mostly older TVs from around 2013 or so I believe.
