The iPhone 4 is a high quality handset that really benefits from the third party applications that are available to it. The Sky selection of apps are both useful and informative and are a perfect accompaniment to this superb phone.
One of the main attractions of the Apple iPhone 4 is the number of applications that are available for download. These applications can range from the latest games to utilities that help you in your everyday life. Here we take a look at some of the excellent applications that are offered by Sky TV. Sky is part of the British Sky Broadcasting network and are a media company in the UK who offer consumers a huge variety of television and IT services.
The latest addition to Skys applications for the iPhone 4 is the new Sky Go system. Sky Go is a service which is available to all subscribers to the Sky TV sports service. The system enables users to download the application to their handset and effectively turn their phone into a portable TV. Sky Go offers a selection of five sports channels which you can watch on your phone in real time. The phone does need to be connected to a 3G or a WiFi network but with coverage so widespread this should really not prove to much of a problem. Imagine travelling home form work on the train whilst watching your favourite football team in action. Sky Go makes this possible and the iPhone 4 is the perfect device for such a service thanks to its high quality screen and excellent sound. If you would prefer to watch the action on the big screen when you get home then there is another application named Sky+ which enables you to set up recordings on you Sky TV Receiver from any location. This can prove invaluable if you have forgot to record your favourite series or are late returning home. The range of applications such as these illustrates just how much the whole home entertainment spectrum is now linked with smartphones, laptops and home televisions all communicating with one another.
Sky also offer applications which are designed solely for use on your iPhone 4. Sky Sports News is an invaluable application which brings a wealth of sporting news direct to your handset. The feature is easy to use with a homescreen that offers headlines from a variety of sporting fields. If you prefer you can restrict this page to just showing new stories from one particular sport such as football or boxing. The application is also useful for checking on forthcoming fixtures or results of recent games. All in all this is an essential iPhone 4 application for any sports fan. On a similar note there is also the Sky News app which is similar but rather than concentrating on sports it focuses on news. You have options to check world news, local news, sports and a number of other categories. If you want to keep up to date with what is happening around you then this should be a definite download.
