The British public service Channel 5 has launched its ad-supported streaming service, My5, on SkyGlass and Sky Stream earlier this week.

The platform offers on-demand access to a wide range of Channel 5 content as well as the broadcaster’s 5Star, 5USA, 5Select, and 5Action channels.

On Sky Glass and Sky Stream, viewers will be able to access My5 through the app bar on the homepage, via the app and input menu, or by using the voice recognition tool to say “Hello Sky My 5” on Glass or via the voice button on the Sky Glass or Sky Stream remote.
