New Sky OS

anyone know what the below is about ? It says get the new sky os, but when you click on it just gives you info about what it includes, nowhere to actually 'get it' as it states.

@Michaeljf80 Flagged this on the closed community to feed back to Sky.

Yeah I was thinking that, but it says sign up, but all it says when I click on it is explore the new os and shows me a few screens with new features, nothing about how to sign up or how to enter a trial.

Hi @GD1

Just out of curiosity, should info about the new SkyOS not have shown up for the general Sky Customers? Or can't you say too much, as I presume it's been talked about in the Closed Forum?

Thanks in Advance

Barry 🙂

HI @Barry+Mc+Kelvey

The trial is only available to Sky Glass and Sky Stream customers. Customers will be selected at random to join the trial.

Selected customers can join either on their Glass TV/Sky Stream puck or via the VIP section of the My Sky app.

Please note that we are not able to accept requests to join the trial.

Hi Kev

it isn't giving me the option of signing up on my sky stream puck, it only gives me a screen where I can explore a few screenshots of new features

However I have just checked sky vip on the sky app on my phone and I had an option to join the trial on there, which I have now joined, it just says coming soon now, and that I don't need to do anything else right now

Yes, @GD1 made us aware of this, and it's being investigated @Michaeljf80 👍

It did give me the option to join on my sky app in the vip section on my phone however, which I have now joined

Hi @KevNewMedia

Thanks for that information. I'm a Sky VIP Diamond Customer, I'm not seeing it in My Sky. I guess I wasn't lucky enough to get selected.

Can you share in here, in what the trial entails?

Thanks in Advance

Barry 🙂

Hi Kev

Not sure if this is an issue with the sky vip section too on the sky app, but I have already gone on and joined the trial and it says 'You've successfully joined the trial' but then when I go back on after closing and reopening the app it still has the option to join, I thought that would disappear or say that I have already joined when I go on if I had successfully joined it.

thanks

@Yoghurt Check your MySky app, if you're invited it will be there.
