Should be out very shortly...AppleTV+ launches tomorrow in the US.

I believe Sony previously said Homekit/Airplay 2 FW update would arrive in the summer. It is 30 degrees where I live, so they missed that. I hope they don't also miss the AppleTV+ launch too.

anyone got the apk? or do you think it would be available day one on any android?

I'm surprised. I thought Apple TV would be only for Apple devices.

Man I'm pissed! I got the A8G OLED last week which is their 2019 TV and I paid more just because I love Sony compared to the LG C9. Turns out that the hardware is not capable to run the Apple TV app 😑

Would be interesting to see which TVs got the early version.

I received a response from Sony USA support today.... "no eta at this time" or something similar.

Still no updates?

Is this just some streaming app or could I use my iPhone remote/tv features with my own content?

Zero cent to walled gardens of Apple.
