Sky to end Mobile TV Nokia application

Posted on 24th November 2009 By petes 1 Comment on Sky to end Mobile TV Nokia application

Sky Anytime applicationIt seems that Sky is about to turn off their ‘Sky Anytime’ mobile TV service.

Two of our team have received the following text message today from Sky:

“We regret to say our Sky App will no longer work from 29 Nov. If you have Mob TV you can still watch via VF Live. For our latest Mob services visit sky.com”

The Sky mobile application was available for a number of handsets, most commonly the Nokia Series 60 range, and allowed users to view news and sports content, watch some of Sky’s shows from their mobile and ‘remote record’ programmes on their Sky+ recorders on the move.

From what we’ve seen on the Sky website, it looks like Sky TV applications for the Apple iPhone, available from the App Store, continue to be offered.

Update: From reading online discussions, it seems there’s some confusion due to the way Sky’s message has been worded. Will the entire app be terminated, or is it just the live TV component of the application that will end. Some are wondering if the Remote Record facility will be removed altogether, which seems unlikely.

We’ll update this post if we get any news.
