### 2/5 — Update required

*2026-09-03, version 26.2 Patch*

Just changed from Sky Q to a Sky Stream puck. Always used Sky Go to see what’s on and when for the Q box, for which it was excellent, but now the programme numbers are different, there are extra programmes, etc., so Sky Stream does not match the Sky Go information. What are your plans to cover these changes?

### 3/5 — Volume

*2026-08-25, version 26.2 Patch*

Why is there no volume control on phone remote 😡

### 3/5 — Ready for an upgrade

*2026-08-23, version 26.2 Patch*

I understand Sky Go may be revamped in late 2026 but when you pay mountains to Sky a year, a mobile/iPad app at 720p HD in 2026 is pretty poor. HBO Max offers TNT in 4K!

### 3/5 — Sky is ok

*2026-08-16, version 26.2 Patch*

It. Is good I just really do not like how it keeps interrupting whis so many adds

### 2/5 — Repeatedly fails to find Sky Qbox

*2026-08-11, version 26.2*

The app often fails to find our sky Q box even though I am standing right next to it. Like much of Sky’s software, it is pretty awful.

### 3/5 — Fine

*2026-08-08, version 26.2*

Works ok, but there are some features missing that I just don’t understand. Why can’t I save programmes to watch later without starting them? Or remove things from my watchlist if they don’t interest me? Very odd as I would think those are quite basic functions.

### 3/5 — Adverts spoiling things yet again

*2026-07-25, version 26.2*

For the amount Sky costs you’d think they’d stop with this. But the ads are relentless. You’re forced to watch half a minute of them before you can skip, which is worse than watching at home, and if you’re searching for a specific moment in a show it’ll trip the adverts every time you search ahead, making it impossible to just find a part of a show if you’re trying to check something, a purpose for which it is unusable. Poor, greedy, and now deleted.

### 1/5 — Paying lots of money to watch an ad before changing channel

*2026-07-18, version 26.1*

You should not have to pay over £100 for all the channels just to have to watch an advert every time you want to change channel. That is a disgrace which sums up Sky, not remotely value for money. Apps like Netflix and Disney + are much better

### 3/5 — Sky Go Update

*2026-07-13, version 26.1*

How about new update with 1080p HD

### 1/5 — Sky News

*2026-07-13, version 26.1*

Sky News is apparently no longer available on the Sky Go iPad app.

### 1/5 — I have waited 2am and it’s not working

*2026-07-13, version 26.1*

I have waited 2am and it’s not working

### 3/5 — Freeze or Crash, Generally OK

*2026-07-08, version 26.1*

Generally, I find this app to be ok but it seems to have a lot of issues such as errors causing you to be kicked out of the program you’re watching or regular freezing - my internet and iPad seem to handle everything else so why is this app a problem?

### 2/5 — Not as good as the Netflix app when travelling

*2026-07-07, version 26.1*

Just a pain to travel with. I go to the bother of downloading the programmes I want to watch in advance. It then just hangs or takes an age to start the downloaded progs. It can’t be that hard surely

### 3/5 — Linking with TV

*2026-07-06, version 26.1*

Over all sky go is good but you can’t purchase movies on app 
You have to do it on the TV, it would be good to change it so you can purchase on app, thank you.

### 1/5 — Shoddy app when it comes to low bandwidth situations

*2026-07-02, version 26.1*

Overall the app is pretty looking and functionally fine, finding things is easy and the channel list is akin to that on the puck, where is fails is in it’s recovery on mobile data you’ll be watching and it locks up with no obvious signs retrying, that seems lazy to me.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Genuinely worst app I’ve ever used

*2026-08-31, version 26.2 Patch*

Crashes constantly, have to reinstall it all the time because it won’t open. Must have negative resources being spent on it. Frankly embarrassing for Sky to put their name on it.

### 1/5 — No Stars

*2026-08-31, version 26.2 Patch*

Terrible! Often doesn’t work properly with messages like“sorry, something went wrong”. I so miss the Sky+ app - now that was a wee gem!

### 1/5 — Don’t bother with this app - too many ads

*2026-08-29, version 26.2 Patch*

The app is a joke, you are bombarded with adverts every 10-13 minutes, and they last 2mins usually, can’t be skipped and are repetitive! The amount of shows I have stopped watching because sky go is unwatchable with all of the ads is unreal! STOP BEING GREEDY WITH THE ADS - PEOPLE ARE ALREADY PAYING YOU A FORTUNE TO HAVE SKY! Why do you need even more money for irritating ads?????

### 1/5 — Negative

*2026-08-10, version 26.2*

I try sighing in and it comes up with “there is a problem with your network connection. Please check your network settings and try again” on all devices which is annoying considering how much sky cost and there’s nothing wrong with the network so sort it out please

### 1/5 — Absolute Rubbish

*2026-08-08, version 26.2*

Why is Sky showing only the Rudd v Fonseca  match on three Sky channels?

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-07-26, version 26.2*

Since the last update they have made a good app slow and sluggish.

### 1/5 — Rubbish App

*2026-07-25, version 26.2*

After every two days I have to uninstall and install app which is very annoying. I never had to do that virgin media app.

### 1/5 — i can’t overstate how bad this app is

*2026-07-25, version 26.2*

It is intentionally impossible to find anything you want to watch. Hungarian GP qualifying just finished and there is literally no way to go back and watch it. Horrendously put together app.

### 1/5 — So flakey

*2026-07-24, version 26.2*

The app doesn’t stay connected to devices. Can’t watch recorded programmes because it doesn’t connect to the Sky Q box. If it does happen to connect, it usually loses connection in the middle of a show. Trying to use it on a laptop is just as bad, most of the time it doesn’t even load

### 1/5 — Worst app ever made

*2026-07-24, version 26.2*

Doesn’t work when you want to stream. Even worse if you are not on your home WiFi. Avoid

### 5/5 — I wish that you didn’t need to pay for anything on sky like a account

*2026-08-02, version 26.2*

I wish that you didn’t need to pay for anything on sky like a account for example

### 5/5 — Works well

*2026-07-22, version 26.2*

App works well, allowing me to watch tv whilst on the go with work.

### 5/5 — Peter

*2026-07-08, version 26.1*

I travel a great deal and the app provides me the opportunity to watch and listen to my favourite program’s.

### 5/5 — T20 cricket

*2026-07-04, version 26.1*

An excellent transmission. Very clear with no hitches.

### 5/5 — Sky G

*2026-07-01, version 26.1*

Great TV and support from Sky, what’s not to like.

### 5/5 — Review

*2026-06-25, version 26.1*

Amazing

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-17, version 26.1*

I just realised you can use it to watch all channels live including non-sky ones as long as they’re in your package, brilliant

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-16, version 26.1*

It mean I can watch Teleeevision

### 5/5 — Love the app need way of watching UHD recordings

*2026-06-14, version 26.1*

Please can you find a way to enable us to watch UHD records on the app 👍

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2026-06-10, version 26.1*

Great service
