Automatic sign-in on tvOS
I have a streaming video app in the App Store. I would like to use the automatic sign in feature for tvOS that was introduced in WWDC '25. However, it requires the com.apple.developer.video-subscriber-single-sign-on entitlement. I'm told that I have to join the video partnership program to access that entitlement. I filled out the forms to join the partnership program, but was ghosted. Would you consider making this feature available to everyone, not just those in the video partnership program? It is frustrating that a new and useful feature isn't actually available.

Entitlement for video streaming service automatic login
I'm trying to use the new (in tvOS 26) video streaming service automatic login API from the VideoSubscriberAccount framework: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/videosubscriberaccount/vsuseraccountmanager/autosignintoken-swift.property It seems that this API requires an entitlement. This document suggests that the com.apple.smoot.subscriptionservice entitlement is required. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/videosubscriberaccount/signing-people-in-to-media-apps-automatically However, it seems more likely that com.apple.developer.video-subscriber-single-sign-on is the correct entitlement. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/entitlements/com.apple.developer.video-subscriber-single-sign-on Which is the correct entitlement and how do I obtain it? I don't want to fully comply with the video partner program. https://developer.apple.com/programs/video-partner/ I just want to use this one new automatic login feature.
