Hopefully Android phones and tablets are next for the update. :)

We're working hard to bring these features to Android devices, but currently they're not available on that platform.

I wish they would hurry up and get Sky Go working on Jelly Bean. No doubt by the end of today that my phone will auto install JB and then ill have no Sky Go

Works like a charm and includes support for the larger iPhone 5 screen. :)

Now Sky just needs to update Sky Go to support the iPhone 5's screen!

[Although it's not alone... BBC, ITV, C4, and Five have all been rather lame regarding updating their catch-up apps for the iPhone 5]

I'm not sure if they'd be able to rework the UI to be usable on a smaller mobile screen. Zeebox functionality is much more suited to tablet devices currently in my opinion.

I asked about this on the Sky help forums and was informed that it's something that is in the works. I guess that the Sky+ app is just the first one to be updated. :)

Well after a lot of thought, and many offers from Sky, I have decided to go back to Sky, the half price offer for 12 months could no longer be ignored. Thanks TiVo it's been an experience.
