Apple TV+ on new Optik boxes
Does Apple TV+ and Disney+ work on the new android OptikTV boxes? I just upgraded my channel packages only to find that neither of these channels (apps) works on my current OptikTV 4K box. Well ble...
Yes, you can access Apple TV+ and Disney+ on the new TELUS TV Digital Box (among thousands of other apps available from the Google Play Store for Android TV). There are pros and cons to both the legacy and the new equipment but I personally love access to all of these streaming services on one device, as well as being able to search for shows in one UI across the apps that I use.

Community Power UserIf you are getting a message that your box is not compatible, then you have one of the older Optik TV set top boxes. Telus's new Android TV based Optik or TelusTV-21T set top boxes are different than the old ones. Depending on the person, some prefer the old boxes and some prefer the new ones. Just depends on the features they need.
Most of the streaming providers are not supporting the older Mediaroom platform that the old boxes use, or they dropped support for it in the last year or two. Netflix is a notable example of that. The streaming providers all developing for the far more common platforms like Google's Android TV & Android, Apple's tvOS / iOS / MacOS, Amazon Fire devices, web based streaming, and for PC. Some smart TVs also have the ability to access various streaming services.

You probably have the forums set to threaded view. I use linear so it just has all the replies in order by date posted.
