@Glen22123  Seems that the live All 4 option is only available on via Website and Mobile/Tablet  Apps. does not appear on my TV either All4 on Devices.  

 

Whilst I have not tried it myself it appears Channel 4's live service can be streamed via the  TvPlayer- there is  app for Samsung Tv's but information states only compatible with 2016/2017 models.

 

(basic service is free but charge for some premium channels if desired)

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

Hi, I've found exactly the same - I'm using my Roku which does support Live Tv on all 4 now

Not through the All4 app, however, I figured a workaround. Open the internet browser on the TV, and go to the channel 4 site. Signing in is a pain using up down left and right, but you can stream live from there. 😊

It is a pain... but definitely a good work around! Thank you. You would think they would just enable or link it to the app as it's possible this way.

You can also get it working on IPhone using the channel4 app and airplay it to the TV if your TV has that, think it needs to connect through AppleTV but it will prompt you (not sure if needed but I did and it works).
