Sky Go streams to Samsung Galaxy S III

Android 4.0 support surfaces

Cloud based data management

Sky's TV-on-the-move app, Go, is now available on the Samsung Galaxy S III as well as a range of other Android 4.0 handsets after the broadcaster announced support for Ice Cream Sandwich.

The app, which allows Sky customers to watch content while they're out and about - as long as it aligns with their subscriptions - is now available on 11 handsets in total.

If you're an HTC or Samsung owner - with a Gingerbread or newer Android build - or a holder of a Galaxy Nexus, then your smartphone should support it.

Skygo ICS

Up to two devices can be registered for the service at any one time. For further information check out the SkyGo website. ®

One week too late!

Had it been available for my Galaxy Nexus any time since October 2011, that would have been great. As they chose to release it exactly 6 days after my Galaxy Nexus was upgraded to Android 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean), an OS they do not support, it just make them look silly.

Big announcement: "look what we now support!" Except you don't.
