There's no way to quit the Sky News app for Android TV? Come on.

I have the SkyNews app on a Shield Pro, and found it running inexplicably today. There's no way to quit it. It doesn't honor the Exit button, and there is no menu in the application UI.

 

Who thought this was OK?

Is the app confirmed compatible with your TV?

Thanks for the reply. It's not running on a TV. Also... it's in the Play store, installed from the device (a Shield Pro, as noted).

Yeah, that's a popular fallback for those who want to say "a rare side-effect" or "a few users." But the fact is that a vanishingly small number of people will take the time to trrack down how to report a bug, and do so.

 

I'm reporting it. There was nothing special about my setup. The app is defective.
