Single Sign-On for paid-TV apps was one of the major features for the big software update for the new Apple TV, then tvOS 10 was released without delay back in September except Single Sign-On was nowhere to be found. Apple’s website changed to say that Single Sign-On was coming soon without any specific date being promised.

Great news for Apple TV users who hate signing in to dozens of different paid-TV apps with the same cable credentials: SSO is now available as Apple has quietly activated the service for users of iOS 10.2 and tvOS 10.1. In its present form, SSO supports Dish, GVTC Communications, Hotwire, and Sling TV.
