What's New in Sky News Australia

3.4.2

June 2, 2026

General improvements and fixes to improve your app experience.

User reviews

Love the news, but…….

The reporting is great but the constant - and slow - content refreshes are painful. To the point where some days I just give up and go in search of something else to read.
And what’s with the practice of associating unrelated videos with almost every major news story???

Background viewing now fixed

In the latest update they have fixed the issue where you couldn’t have a clip playing in background. Thank you for fixing this. It is now useable again!

Don’t like new changes - can’t minimise screen now

Recent update means now I can’t minimise screen to keep listening while doing other things like email on my phone. Now it remains full screen and if I pause to check on a call or message the talking stops til I open it up again. One good thing is time shows while playing while before I had to minimise to see phone clock. Please adjust app to be able to minimise screen again, I treat the app more like a podcast to have playing all day in the background while doing chores etc at home.

Please upload new programs faster!!

You have some great content but when I wake up at 9.30am on a Sunday why can’t I watch Sunday Agenda that was on at 8am. Figure out how to get this stuff uploaded faster. By the time you have it up people less inclined to watch because the news is dated. This content has such a short shelf life makes no sense not to do this.

Faulty Audio

Whenever I enter the App and load streaming, I get audio from two different streams playing over the top of each other and there’s no simple way of stopping either of them. Also, why not have the capacity to watch a Live broadcast and rewind back to the beginning if you started watching after it started. Flash does this!
