Android and iOS users receive free Sky TV upgrade ahead of anyone else
ANDROID and iOS users will be the lucky ones to receive a free Sky TV upgrade before anyone else.
A new version of the Sky Go App is launching on Apple TV, iOS, Android and Desktop this winter, meaning users can watch their favourite series, films and sports on the run up to Christmas.
Sky explained the trial will include new features and a few background changes.
“The aim of this trial is to test and learn, so we want your honest opinions on how the app works on a console platform,” a statement on the Sky website read.
“Your feedback will mean a successful launch for all customers.
“So if you’re technically orientated and have a keen interest in digging up clues, this might just be the trial for you!”
The telecomms company announced that recruitment is ongoing.
To take part in the winter test drive, customers must have an active Sky TV package, with Sky Go Extra or Q Multi-screen.
Sky Glass users will need a Whole Home subscription to be able to use TV from Sky.
Anyone with Apple TV must have HD and 4K streaming devices.
Those willing to take part will also need to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
SKY is constantly rolling out free goodies to keep its VIP members happy, and perhaps entice some new customers to join.
The latest is a free movie, from a popular kids franchise, which is available only to Sky VIP members on-the-house.
Teen Titans Go! To the Movies, released in 2018, centres around the DC superhero team as teenagers trying to “pull off their dream” of stardom while being “sidetracked by a seriously super villain and his maniacal plan to take over the Earth,” according to Warner Bros.
The movie (and series) is rated PG, and is designed for kids around eight years old or older.
It’s the only DC division that trades friendly jabs with comic rival Marvel – and involves much-loved cameos.
The show has been likened to Cartoon Network properties like Adventure Time, The Regular Show and The Amazing World of Gumball.
While it’s certainly angled towards younger minds, the title features a star-studded voice-over cast, including Nicholas Cage, Kristen Bell, Will Arnett and Khary Payton.
