Would be excellent IF it sent record to the Sky Plus box. BUT FAILS every time . Then collapse totally. Have tried on 2 different new phones and a Samsung Galaxy Note tablet ALL does the same . Please fix

N70%
by N####:

So poor, no control apart from pause, play and a wild search bar . No buffering so if the connection drops you have to start from the beginning and use the poor search bar to find your place , I am glad I got the access via Virgin media as I would never accept paying for this.

Since changing to Sky Cinema this app doesn't work properly. When I try to set a film to record/download via it then it crashes and comes up with an error message. I wish Sky would test their updates.

N70%
by N####:

Come on guy's, at least give them longer to do a bit more with the app. Its only been out for a couple of weeks. They can't keep every individual happy, that would cost billion and more. So I say give them a try for a while and then delete it if your still not happy with this app. Just to many Hater's in this world and not enough lover's.

N70%
by N####:

Keeps crashing moment I click watch or record on Nexus 5 stock unrooted Android. And not to mention it starts playing adverts of movies during phone calls!

Y70%
by Y####:

Every film I try to watch has very poor quality as it seems to stutter. Surely there should be a better buffer facility to avoid this. P.S. my WiFi at home is more than enough to support the streaming!!!!!!

N70%
by N####:

22 out of the first 50 movies listed under the 'On Sky Cinema' section (as of 4th August) are not available to view through the app. Sure, we can set reminders and record the next broadcast but isn't the whole point of the app to be able to watch the movies on the go. If I wanted a 'list of movies showing on Sky' app this would be perfect. But I want an app that delivers what it's supposed to

K70%
by K####:

Sky, take a leaf out of Netflix's book and learn how to stream content. Streaming constantly stutters then stops all together, should at least be able to start again from where you left off not right back at the start of the movie.

S70%
by S####:

Doe's anybody at sky look at these reviews? As you need to and I wish I could give your best ZERO. Like the others on here can't use as you've not coded the app correctly.

N70%
by N####:

Poor app poor interface, nothing like Netflix. Only use it as I've got offer from virgin media and it's on my cable too.
