Sky Go to undergo major redesign in UK and Ireland

Sky’s mobile TV service, Sky Go, is due to undergo what the company described as its “biggest ever redesign” in the UK and Ireland.

From this week Sky will start to roll out the new design, which will include a new homepage for the Sky Go mobile app and web service.

Later in the year Sky said it will also add new features to make the app more intuitive – highlighting more shows, sports and similar movies and making it simpler to binge on box sets with a ‘watch next episode’ feature.

“This is just the start of a really exciting year for Sky Go – an app that’s led the way in watching on the go and loved by millions of people around the UK,” said Sky director of product development, Michele Swaine,

“Both the redesign rolling out today and brilliant new features coming later this year are all part of our commitment to making finding the best TV brilliantly simple.”

The new home page rolls out from today for Android users, with an iOS update to follow in February. The new homepage and navigation tools for the Sky Go website launch today.
