Sky Go adds new catch up channels as redesign is introduced


Sky has added four new catch up channels to Sky Go as part of its upcoming app redesign.


The on-demand Sky Go app is getting a fresh paintjob this summer and users will gain access to four new catch up TV channels to go along with it.


All Sky Go users will now have access to catch up TV from Fox, Universal and Syfy channels for no additional cost. Any Sky Entertainment Extra pack subscribers will also be able to enjoy Disney on demand for free.


These new channel additions mean that Sky Go has over 20 catch up channels for users to enjoy.


“This summer we’re adding even more channels into what is already the UK’s biggest catch up TV service”{/pullquote}, said Luke Bradley-Jones, Director of TV Products at Sky. “We’re also making it easier to find something great to watch when out and about and at the same time giving our customers even more choice about different screens to watch on.”


The Sky Go mobile app will be getting a fresh design this summer that makes it easier to navigate. Sky TV customers will be able to browse through up to 39 channels to find their favourite shows on mobile and tablet devices.


The Xbox 360 Sky Go app will be given the new Microsoft user interface.


“It’s all part of our commitment to offer the best TV and the best ways to watch, giving our customers even more choice and flexibility from their Sky TV.”


Sky Multiroom customers will also receive access to Sky Go Extra for free from early July. This means they’ll be able to download their chosen TV series episodes from Sky Go to watch online at their convenience.


Sky Go Extra usually costs an additional £5 on top of the existing monthly bill.
