Download from anywhere

Sky has added some on-demand goodies to its iOS app including on-demand listings and remote box-set downloads.

iOS-owning Sky customers will be able to browse on-demand programmes on their iPhone or iPod. They can then watch said programmes on their Sky+ boxes later.

Playing catch up

Earlier in the year, Sky added Catch Up TV to the Sky+ app, which brought episodes from Sky channels, BBC iPlayer and Demand 5. 4oD will be added in the spring of 2013.

Recently, it added a feature that lets you use your iPhone or iPod touch as a remote control.
