Sky Go has today added a new app to the Android Market, adding the multiscreen service to a variety of Android smartphones.
The app is compatible with a selection of the most popular handsets including HTC Desire S and Samsung Galaxy S2, covering the majority of Android users. Sky TV customers using these smartphones can now access all five Sky Sports channels, ESPN, Sky News and 11 Sky Movies channels via the Sky Go app in line with their subscription.
Further Sky Entertainment channels have now been added to the Sky Go bouquet following the launch of Sky Atlantic in January.
Sky 1, Sky Living and Sky Arts 1 are now also available on all compatible mobile devices and the new Sky Sports F1 channel will be added at launch in March.
Holly Knill, head of Sky Go, commented: “We’re extremely happy to announce the roll out of Sky Go on selected Android handsets today and the arrival of the Sky Entertainment channels to mobile devices. We are always working to ensure that Sky customers have more ways to watch content they love, whether it’s the big Premiership game, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Modern Family or Ruth Jones’ Stella, and this is exactly what this enhanced version of Sky Go delivers.”
Launched last summer, Sky Go is already available on Apple iOS devices, the iPhone and iPad, which continue to be the first option for multiscreen offers.
