Unfortunately, no Sony smart TVs from 2016 supports the Apple TV app directly. The oldest listed Sony model is from 2018.

Smart TVs that are not directly supported may use an HDMI connected streaming device to have access to the Apple TV app. E.g. the Apple TV set-top box, a Roku, a Fire TV, or select gaming console.
