Sky have obviously got over those problems from last week now. All of their apps now show up in the Google Play store correctly and one, the Sky+ app, has received a significant update.
When you’re out and about it’ll still let you send a record command back to your box at home for that all-important edition of “Embarrassing Bodies”, but now there’s some additional features and a beautiful new look too.
Now there’s the ability to search the entire on-demand catalogue on your phone and start it instantly on your Sky+ box when you’re at homeand connected to your WiFi.
I’ve just tried it out and it’s flawless, so if you’re a customer I definitely recommend you grab the update.

I was always able to send a record command when out and about, even with older versions. It’s nothing new and has been really useful on a few occasions!
Recent updates have made my box so useful esecially as the time befores firmware killed my magic eye. Even better as the kids have it piped to their rooms and have android devices they too now have remotes. I like the new look but not been able to play fully yet….. NOW if they could stop been apple centric…. release the sky news tablet app ( hate them going on about it with exclusive content although Adam Boluton let it slip they where working on it ) AND make Go work on all devices ( ie take the block off ) id be happy….. for now I refuse to install it
I love that the sky box responds quicker to the app when fast forwarding than the b***dy remote does!!!
