Re: Sky News App

Is anyone else having trouble with the videos on it? If Im on 3G I get this movie could not be played. Works on wifi though

Could it be because Im on T-mobile as my o2 colleague can play them on 3g??

Re: Sky News App

Downloaded it at work yesterday when i saw the ad on Sky news ( funnily enough ) which is on the canteen TV.

Having had a play it seems really clear , quick and easy to use on 3G and is lightning fast on wifi at home.

Ive not tried the videos yet , but thinking about it i may well never do.

Shame the sky+ app is as well designed as this one ( login status not showing , no HD channel option etc )

Recommended.
