AT&T’s cord cutting service, better known as DirecTV Now, has now begun to officially support logging into third-party apps such as ESPN, HBO Go, Disney, NatGeo, and much more. This now gives DirecTV Now subscribers the ability to access both archived and live content outside of the DirecTV Now app, a feature we considered one of the major missing pieces of the services since it originally debuted.

I’ve personally tried it on both the ESPN and HBO Go app and have had no problems logging it. That said, it doesn’t seem like DirecTV Now supports Apple’s Single Sign-On function, a feature which would make this a much better experience.

Still, the fact that DirecTV Now added this is a big win in my opinion. Other services such as PlayStation Vue and SlingTV have had this for quite some time. It’s good to see that DirecTV Now is on board.
