App is fine unless you want to chrome cast. Freezes every 2 seconds constantly. Ignore their replies to your review, my app is updated, reinstalled multiple times and my tv is brand new. Update 5months later - wow you would think it would get better, but now i cant even watch it full screen on my phone with it constantly stuttering! FIX YOUR APP. Literally none of your trouble shooting tips do anything.

Unfortunately for Sky, there are multiple media apps available for big name entertainment companies that show how casting should work; the SkyGo app is not one of them. A shockingly bad casting experience that is made worse by the fact there is no native app for Google TV. The whole app platform needs to be developed from scratch. App for the TV, simple sign in from the device like mainstream platforms do; and casting that actually works. Why is the only content on the app available live..

Had feedback from the SkyGo development team on this review previously however am updating this review again. I am still having issues with no pop out player working on mobile/tablet. The kind similar to Netflix or TVNZ+ where the app can play over the top of over apps. Have tried clearing cache and data and restarting my device however it still doesn't work. Have emailed the developer as well with no response.
