Proving other companies have vastly upped there games and many not charging an extra fee to use them.

Dated app lacks in yesterday's features
by Ping Brady
I've been waiting for almost two years for them to add feature so one could actually manage their recordings (see and edit existing). DirecTV is years behind DishNetwork in every category (including apps), and I can't wait to switch back. If you submit a feature request on their site they reply with smoke 'n mirror sales phrases about the few components they do offer
And from the Sky iPad iTunes page

Remove the subscription and this would get 5 stars, I am not paying for the same content twice.

Best Sport viewing application by jakeygamer

This is a very good application, which allows me to watch Sky Sports football matches for a very low price of £8.00 per month.
No streaming problems at all been using this sky sports service since December 2009. The quality is smooth and I get a crisp picture eveytime.

Since the new update the images for the Sky channels no longer appear. And also the tv listings do not display either. I have been in touch with Sky support. Will keep you updated.

Sky support say they will release an updated version to correct missing logos and info for users like me still on IOS 3.1.3 who can't update to IOS 4.2

Update has fixed missing channel icons.

Red button by Very Frustrated about this app

Can not watch sports that are on the red button. Annoying
Happy customers.....
