BBC iPlayer app has disappeared!

The BBC iPlayer app has disappeared from both my Sony smart TV (KDL-46HX853) and my Sony Blu-Ray player

(BDP-S790).

 

Have these apps been removed from Sony devices or is there something wrong with my devices? I have checked through all the menus multiple times and the iPlayer app is definitely not there,

 

any suggestions appreciated

thanks

Hi there

 

Your model TV is from 2010 of which various people are experiencing issues at the moment.  Please see the following for more information:

Just to clarify - YouView is only on 2015 and 2016 Android based Sony TVs.
