I'd also like to voice my disappointment over this as well.
I'm really impressed that I can view Youtube videos on it by selecting on my iPad and then just touching one icon on the iPad.Immediately pops up on the TV.
Do other apps achieve this?
And whilst we're discussing missing apps, the BBC has not implemented iPlayer radio on smart TVs, because viewers don't listen to the radio on large screen TVs. What about those of us who route their TVs through an integrated AV system?
I don't understand the comment that no TV manufacturer provides 4OD or ITV player?? A relative of mine has a Samsung smart TV that is over 1 year old which has access to both. Really annoyed I have a newer, more expensive, supposedly superior TV without these features. Happy to upload a picture of this if the integrity of what I'm saying is in question.
My brother bought my Mum a Sony Bravia January 2015. I have shown her how to access the internet apps so she can watch BBC iplayer. I am staggered that 4OD and ITVPlayer are not available. I have a Samsung Smart TV, bought January 2014 it has 4OD and ITVPlayer along with BBC iplayer all as standard preloaded apps. So your claim that all manufacturers are unable to provide 4OD and ITVPlayer is incorrect. Please sole this for people that bought your much more expensive Sony Bravia TV.
Eventually gave up waiting. Over 5 years ago, John Lewis assured me in good faith that they believed Sony would soon produce a software update for the ITV player.
As you now know, you may as well do what I did, sign up for talktalk tv and internet. They provide a Youview box , you can use this to watch ITV player etc. Makes the smart TV redundant ?
One more voice here. What I find really odd is that you can get 4OD on the PS3. So is this a Sony issue or isn't it? How can it be available on one Sony platform and not another?
