Smart TVs and devices

Watching matches on your device

Follow these steps to find the official broadcaster app for your device and confirm the channel for your country before kickoff.

1. Confirm the broadcaster for your country

Check the channel listed on the fixture page for your location, since rights differ between countries and seasons.

2. Install the official app

Download the broadcaster's app from the Apple TV App Store, Google Play on Android TV, or the Amazon Appstore on Fire TV, then open it on your smart display.

3. Sign in and verify access

Sign in with the subscription account that covers your region, then open the live section to confirm the match is available before kickoff.

4. Use a connected streaming stick or mobile

On phones and tablets, use the same official app from your device's app store. Streaming sticks follow the same steps as smart TVs.

Official standards

Authentication, audio, and delay

App authentication

Official broadcaster apps require a verified subscription sign-in. If access is refused, confirm the account covers your region before contacting support.

HDMI audio sync

If commentary drifts from the picture, set audio to stereo or the default track in the app and check your TV's audio delay setting.

Broadcast delay

Live feeds can run a few seconds behind other sources. Expect this lag and avoid spoilers by muting social feeds during the match.
