I cannot see the answer anywhere. In the app there is a up and down arrow on the top left and bottom left of the screen. Touch it appears to be an option to change channel but all it does is change the theme colors. Is that all it's for?

I find it good as gold in my iPad Air. Wasn't great on my Win 7 laptop

Last time this popped up it seemed that laptops weren't great but tablets were fine

I have ups and downs using it, on the iPhone on 4G it mostly works, except for the annoying "are you still watching" message. On my windows laptop over wifi its not very good - basically 30 seconds of video, then it freezes and I just get sound. Also, wanted to use PlayTo or Widi so I can view it on the TV, but get 'device not supported'.

Easier to just record the program using the other sky app and watch it when I get home - at least that way I can see all of the channels I am subscribed to.

That's interesting - I haven't had the "Are you still watching?" message for some time - admittedly I've mainly been watching on my iPad, although that use to show the message all the time as well. Do you have the latest version of the app?
