I have Skygo on my mobile phone and can watch shows without an issue
I have a OnePlus Pad 3 (android tablet) and cannot watch shows using skygo
I can connect to SKY Q and watch shows saved to my SKY Q
When I try and watch a live show - any channel it gets stuck with 0% download
maybe a couple of times I got a 2001 error but only a couple of times and it gave no useful information
oddly BBC1 and BBC 2 work on SkyGO - so it feels like Sky is blocking something
but all the other channels don't. I have left it trying to download for 30 minutes but it doesn't work
it shows the current time and the correct TV guide (which suggests it is connecting to the internet)
If I go to settings --> manage your devices - I get this error
There was a problem loading this webpage - Please check your network connection and try again.
The internet/Wifi is fine on the device, I can access the web
BBC1 and BBC 2 work using Skygo
What have I tried
tried lots of different channels (sky sports, channel 5, ITV, Sky History) none of the work.
Uninstalled Skygo and installed again
Restarted the tablet
turned off wifi , restarted tablet, turned on wifi, tried skygo

What worked was turning off/resetting my WiFi/router.
After doing this then skygo worked.
I read somewhere that before this skygo was thinking the tablet was not in the UK and was blocked it. I don't fully understand why this works but it does.

Re: SkyGo not working on Android Tablet - cannot watch live shows
What happens if you disable to connection to your Sky Q box, although you will not be able to watch recording or stream channels via it you might have better luck watching live TV.

I disconnected sky q in the app and I still have the same problem.
Unfortunately that didn't fix it
