Hi @amjam1 

 

Changed in what way? Sky constantly move things around to promote certain content over other content.

 

The only thing that is pretty much static is the first few rows and everything after TV guide can vary.

Re: Sky Home screen

A new top level which had 3 buttons - one was apps. and another was play llists. It was useful since it reduced scrolling.

Re: Sky Home screen

The favourites section has been updated as well. New look, and new "refresh" feature which automatically updates the favourites bar based on the channels you watch

Re: Sky Home screen

I'm with you on this. The new screen was a great improvement. Getting to Apps and Playlist was so much easier. 

 

But they have gone back to the "old" screen and if anything it's looking rather cluttered to be honest.

Hi

No. Just an ordinary old glass customer. 

 

My daughter also had the new home screen as well.

Re: Sky Home screen

@Jporch316 
All customers had a new Home Screen layout for over a month on Sky glass and Sky Stream

 

The new layout was quick access to 3 large size tiles for TV Guide/Apps/Playlist located at the start of Home Screen

 

 

From December the Home Screen reverted back to previous as in does not have these 3 large size tiles

@Jporch316 I now only have a stream puck but, like you, I never noticed it on the puck home screen which presumably would be the same as Glass..  It actually sound as though it would have been useful.  As @amjam1 mentions in post 3 above it would certainly reduce the amount of scrolling which can't be a bad thing (all the coating is wearing off my remote).

Ah .... I'm not going mad then ! I'm 100% certain I didn't see this on my glass or pucks
