discovery+ app

I have BT Big sport, which enables me to watch Eurosport/Discovery+ on my BT Pro Box, but when I try to use the the Discovery+ app on my iPhone, it assumes I want to use my Apple TV a//c. Any ideas how I bypass this to use my BT login?

Have you created your Discovery+ account with the link BT sent to you?

@Popeye13_Official Thanks for the reply. I didn't get a link direct from BT, I used their website, and created a login. The issue is the iPhone goes directlly to Apple TV to sign up.

Try a different browser perhaps, because it shouldn't be directing you to Apple TV or Apple TV+

It was via the Discovery+ app on my phone.

If you're going into the Discovery+ app, it shouldn't be bringing anything else up up.

Im stumped here.

Hi @scharter,

Something doesn't sound right there.

I've downloaded the Discovery+ app, opened it and then gone to the ACCOUNT settings. It then gives me the option to Sign in. Could you share any screenshots of what's happening after you've opened the Discovery+ app?

Thanks

Hi @DanielS Thanks for the reply. I deleted the app, and re-installed it, hey ho, I managed to login with mt BT ID, strange, but it's working now.

That's great to hear @scharter.

It was a very unusual one as no other app should have been trying to hijack your attempt to log into the Discovery+ app.

I hope you enjoy the app. I'm currently going through Aussie Gold Hunters with a bunch more shows similar to it lined up. I always enjoyed some Outback Opal Hunters so that will be next.

Thanks
