Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
I think the reason for not bringing it back could be what somebody else has already suggested. Since you have to record a program instead of just getting a reminder and maybe not watching it. Once its been recorded it could count towards viewing stats regardless of whether it is actually watched or just deleted. So Skys audience viewing figures could be exaggerated.

Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
I don't want to record everything, I just want a reminder to pop up for a programme I might want to watch.

Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
I think a reminder option would be great, as this would prevent my kids from recording every episode of a program by accident.
Maybe allow the reminders to be selectively set on individual boxes or multiple/all as an option.
This really needs to be added now as Sky Q has been around for 4 years, and I really think this would have been a useful function right from the start!

Selecting a future programme to watch
Why not allow a future programme to be selected, when watching another channel, for the Sky Q box to switch over to the preselected programme at the time it starts. So much easier than having to set an alarm on my phone, to remind me to switch over manually.

Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
I am so disappointed that SkyQ does not have the REMINDER FUNCTION. As other people have said I chose SkyQ expecting it to be better and more advanced. I would also say the price I was told when I ordered it has now crept up having been assured that it would stay at that price. On querying this I was just fobbed off. Very very disappointed with Sky and thinking of leaving. I have been a very loyal customer for in excess of 15 years.

Please bring back the reminder function, this is important for live events.

Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
Can't believe there is no reminder function on Sky Q! Listen to your customers Sky.
It must be possible to implement this - even if it is only for those without mini-boxes - there must be a large majority of viewers with only one Sky Q box.

Re: Have a reminder function for programmes
We've had Sky Q a few months and miss the reminder function. The most iritating thing though is getting it to start up. Sometimes it comes up straight away but very often it's either a blue screen or picture with no sound. We have to select another TV input, then go back to HDMI-1 and hope it starts. It may take 10-12 goes to get sound and picture. Never had this problem with Sky+. It seems to be a compatability problem with my TV which is about 6 years old now. But the old Sky worked fine so this is a Sky problem. Once up and running its fine.
We do record more programs concurrently now and that is a boon. The menus are fiddly and slower to use than Sky+ but you get used to it.
