Is there anyway or will it be introduced to have sky tv user accounts. My house has 4 sky q boxes and obviously they are for different people and sometimes we record shows that we all watch and obviously if I start a show that someone else has also watch it then doesn't pick up where they paused or atoooed so I wondered if in the future we could have user accounts

I think many people would really like some form of user profiles to be able to separate recordings etc. especially families / households with differing tastes
As @PandJ2020 it has been raised and I think that SKY have found implementing such a system challenging - it is somewhat different when recordings are stored physically on a single SKY box as SKY Q is, versus streaming (or SKY HD with Separate physical boxes)
Maybe one day it will be implemented but it doesn't seem likely in the near future unfortunately

@Steffb13 as @PandJ2020 has said it has been asked for since Q was released in February 2016.
A bit like reminders as its never been implemented by now then the chances are that it won't be implemented at all I'm afraid to say
