No option to set reminder

ash_42 — Fri, 19 Dec 2025 16:08:32 GMT

Hi,
I've just received my Sky Stream puck today and read that there is a recently new feature to set reminders from within the TV guide but I can't see the option. I only seem to have the option to add to list or view other showings. Does anyone know if this is a phased release?

@ash_42 Click the bell icon next to the + Add series box, if it's not showing it may be the box has yet to receive the last update, it should update itself.

@GD1 Sorry missed your second part... I can't force it to check for updates can I?

Go to settings and system management and check what build version and UI version you are on @ash_42

Also if you scroll down on that page you posted to the next episode then you may see the reminder option there.

Hi @ash_42 The reminder is set on the TV listings. I use it quite a lot. You need to go to the TV listings and find the programme in the future that you require a reminder for and when it is due to start a message appears on your screen.

For example if you want a reminder for the 10pm BBC news find it in the TV listings and then press the select button on your remote and it should show an option to Add series but next to it is a bell icon. Select this and then select again to set the reminder.

The example you show has finished its last episode of the current series so would not appear on the TV listing to receive the reminder.

@Fothergill1 the bell icon doesn't show regardless of which future program I select

It's randomly started showing now.
I have restarted the device several times over the afternoon, I also did an app refresh in the settings > system management > resets & updates > refresh apps. Maybe one of these actions eventually sorted it.
