Directtv with Sony TV

Have been watching a TV series through appleTV for 30+ days. Trying to watch the next show and trying to watch any show through opple tv, and a request to update directv comes up. when I click on the update directv it says I need to payup for directv. Directv is also showing up as an app and an input on our sony TV. We have not used and do not use directv. How can we stop this from happening?

You have to uninstall the DIRECTV app so that it doesn’t reappear.

I’m not sure how to uninstall apps with a Sony smart TV but it should be extremely self-explanatory.

Unfortunately, there’s nothing you can do about that. If it really bothered you, there are other options like getting a streaming device like a Fire Stick, Roku, or Apple TV.
