General : TV Anywhere Android App

[shanewestwood91]

its a rubbish app you cant watch over 3g or 4g signal waste of time

Looks like the increased demand through the app is causing problems. Ipad saying cannot connect to TV Anywhere due to high demand

I had that too but it seems to have resolved.

Sky release a tablet version which vastly increases compatibility over Android devices.

I like how they give details of their plan for Android.

VM take note!

I'm using Sky Go on a Nexus 5 with 4.4 and Sky Go tablet on a Nexus 7 with 4.4 both work pretty well , only issue I've seen is the stated one of the stream taking a little longer to become clear and we are literally talking seconds.

I side loaded the app on my S2 as GooglePlay said my device is'nt compatlible.

Works OK, but wont stream and can't connect to Tivo, even though YouTube and Netflx have the TV screen icon on my phone allowing me to push those apps on the Tivo without pressing a button.

You checked that you've got Network remote control switched on in the settings?

I can't even find the app on Google play I'm assuming it's beause I've had the kitkat update on my nexus 7 (2012).

Because it's a TiVo management app with added streaming.

OK. So it's not the TV Anywhere app that VM promised, and we've been waiting over a year for.

Can you tell us when we can expect the promised TV Anywhere app will arrive then please?

[BenMcr]

No, it is exactly that app. However as has been said from the start, and is exactly the same for the iOS version, it's only available if you have TiVo

For customers without TiVo, you can use the web version of TV Anywhere only
