Ratings and reviews

A hit & miss experience for me. So often, whilst I'm using the app at home (via Sky broadband) the feed freezes. Sometimes it's just the picture that freezes whilst the audio continues. It's also somewhat frustrating that A) the favourites from my account don't appear here, and B) I'm paying £5 per month to skip ads but it's impossible to skip ads on to the app! And, when I need to restart the stream after it's frozen, I'm forced to watch an ad before I can resume the show that got interrupted.

The app performs well and is functional. However, I am scoring low due to the limited features on mobile and xbox. It would be awesome if you could view your saved shows and continue watching list as a sky customer on the go. I guess it's designed this way in order to force customers into subscriptions for their own Puck and box platforms.

Pretty good. Room for improvement though. Does the job of streaming well. However, you can't switch between Sky box and Sky Go easily. I mean you can't start a show on Sky Go, and then be able to switch on the TV and carry it on from the same point on your Sky box. Indexing is a little strange, and I find it a little uncomfortable compared to other services. But I use it regularly, as it does the job well.
