Question Is there going to be a Sharp tv and Netflix compatibility issue Dec 2019?
- Thread starter Tecnogram
- Start date
Message appearing on sign on to app saying device will not be compatible after Dec 1. Netflix website does not include Sharp in their compatibility list. Is this true? Is there a work around besides using a cell to get Netflix on sharp aquos. Works now and isp says nothing they know about as tv connects to internet just fine. TV shows app and is connecting now but Netflix site says the pop up will continue till dec 1 and then Sharp tv will not connect.
Techogram,
Tried to look into without much luck.
Hook a computer to TV and access Netflix thru computer.
Not sure this will help as it really doesn't address your issue.

Hopefully someone else can help.

Check with Sharp support, there may be a firmware update to the TVs for the built in apps.
If not, you can use a device like Firestick, Roku, etc... to get the same function but with better support for future updates.

Well Sharp has passed the buck back to Netflix saying they are not providing app update for older models. Sharp advised to get streaming device. They informed you can not even download app after Dec 1 to older TV.
Bottom line. Netflix said service provider issue, service provider said Sharp issue, Sharp says Netflix issue.
Also Sharp advised that this is happening with all other “older” brands of TV’s.
Wonder how many customers they will loose as a result.

You can find all the info you need for things like Firestick online, Firestick is an Amazon device, should work fine in Canada. Same thing for Roku or any other media player. Everything is a web search away now, don't even need to leave the house to search through an encyclopedia at the library.
