Re: New Sky OS
@KevNewMedia I would like to join this trial because I do them with Apple when they release iOS or when Google releases Android OS but if I can't then doesn't matter least I tried.

Re: New Sky OS
Why do individuals disregard responses and continue posting the same material repeatedly? Such people should never serve as beta testers, as they are irritating.

Re: New Sky OS
What's the verdict so far from those who've got the new SkyOS beta?
Good points? Bad points? Anything surprising?

Hi @Angel_Aka the OS2 beta trial hasn't started yet.
If my post (or any other) has solved your issue please mark as an "Answer" as it helps others identify the solution

When's the planned start, just out of interest? I got a message saying it would be installed in "the next 24 hours" on my Sky Glass but assume it was probably a mistake as that was on Tuesday morning.

Re: New Sky OS
Sky should go chaotic evil be publishing the beta at 5pm on a Friday. That'll make the devs really happy!
On a serious note, intruiged to see how it works out when testing starts. The screenshots definitely look like an imporvement, but the proof is in the using!

Re: New Sky OS
Hope I get selected considering software testing is literally part of my day job 😂
The new Sky Go app on iOS is so much better, feels like a high quality product which is what I expect from Sky. Notice it has a record option too so obviously in preparation for this new update.
Was just about give up on my pucks to be honest and switch to virgin but think I'll stick around see how it improves..
