Reminder?

Since upgrading from the Sky+ box, one thing I definitely miss is the ability to set reminders on different programs throughout the day. Something to consider bringing back Sky🙌🏻

@Joseph1998 people have been asking for reminders since Sky Q came out in 2016 as its not been added by now I really doubt it will ever be added

hi @Joseph1998 if you do a search on here you will find that you are not alone - many who migrate from SKY HD miss them

After many requests and many years I am afraid you have to accept that SKY are extremely likely to never introduce them on SKY Q

@Joseph1998

Search Reminders in the forum search box and enjoy.

@Joseph1998 A search on the forum, using the very large search bar at the top would return numerous posts about this subject. Reminders will not be added to Sky Q it is a entrirely different product to Sky +, if it were going to be added it would have been done years ago.

Why people seem unable to use the forum search function is beyond me!

@Joseph1998 You're serious right? And you did a search prior to poting right? Good luck 🙄

You would have thought by now Sky would have rejected the idea and we would just be able to post a link where "Sky he say no"

Just trying to add a positive spin on the answer.

I am at a loss as to why people consider Sky Q a different product? In common with HD+ they play live TV, stream and record. The only difference are the conceptions some posters have of these devices and the wish to follow the Sky mantra.

No, we're just fed up with the same question being asked over and over and over again, when a simple search on here or Google would show that this has been mentioned multiple times, and doesn't warrant yet ANOTHER new thread!

You thought it was a different product that's why you returned yours and went back to Sky +HD

Don't they all play live tv stream and record.

No differences you say @Lawrence+cope but not having the reminder feature wouldn't make me want to go back to Sky+HD

@Joseph1998 Sky decided to drop the reminders function when they brought out Sky Q in favour of more recording of programs.

If there's a certain program that you need reminding to watch so that you don't miss it, the only way you can do this with Sky Q, is to record it and put a series link on it. I find it useful to put a series link on a program as when a new season of that particular program comes out, I don't miss it as my box has automatically recorded it.

I hope this helps.

Will I still be able to place a bet with SkyBet on the 3.30 at Ascot?
