Sky Kids app lets you download shows for the open road
No connection? No problem.
It's hot and you still have another few hours on the road. The kids are starting to fidget and have already grown tired of Minecraft: Pocket Edition on their iPads. What to do? Well, if you're a Sky subscriber, there's always Sky Kids. The child-centric streaming app launched in March and is getting a handy new feature today — offline playback. So before you set off in the car, you can download a bunch of episodes (or seasons) to keep them entertained. The catch? You'll need a Sky Go Extra or Sky Multiscreen account. Otherwise, you're still reliant on Wi-Fi, 3G and 4G streaming.
