Sling
Sling is a digital video streaming and entertainment app from DIRECTV that allows users to watch live television, on-demand content, and recordings from their DIRECTV subscription across multiple devices. The app provides access to a broad cable channel lineup, sports, movies and shows, with the ability to stream to phones, tablets and computers. Sling lets subscribers manage their viewing across devices and catch up on missed programs.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe search results provided do not contain clear information about whether Sling has received a native Apple Silicon build. The bundle ID com.Echostar.Sling and the limited search results available do not confirm the current native status or update timeline. We recommend checking directly with DIRECTV or Sling support to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. If you are currently running Sling under Rosetta 2 on an M-series Mac, note that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28, scheduled for September 2028, so an Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. In the meantime, keep your app updated via DIRECTV's update mechanism to ensure you have the latest available version for your Mac.
