Sky has launched a free upgrade for its Sky Q, Sky Stream and Sky Glass devices, headlined by a new feature called Your Multiview. The update allows viewers to watch up to four live Sky Sports events on a single screen, eliminating the need for channel-hopping during busy sporting moments.
With the new feature, fans can watch a live Premier League match while monitoring other games and scores. It also supports following multiple sports at once, including F1, golf and cricket. Users can spotlight an event to change the on-screen layout, select which audio they want to hear, and switch any event to full screen when the action intensifies.
Your Multiview on busy sporting weekends
“On busy sporting weekends, ‘Your Multiview’ lets fans choose up to four live Sky Sports events and watch them side by side on a single screen,” Sky said.
The broadcaster is also adding more ways for fans to follow matches, teams and key moments throughout the season. With 1,500 matches being shown on the platform this season, viewers can follow multiple games, check live scores and tables, track their favourite team and catch up on the biggest talking points without leaving the sofa.
Carli Kerr, Managing Director of Sky TV & NOW, said: “There's more live sport for fans to enjoy than ever, and we want to make it as easy as possible to follow all the action.”
Additional sports features
Your Multiview is rolling out this week on Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q. Other extras arriving for sports fans include Sports Hub, Clips and Team Pages.
Sports Hub lets fans keep up with the action without leaving the match, with live scores, stats, tables, schedules, short-form clips and highlights appearing alongside the game. Users can also switch to other matches, catch up with Recap or launch Multiview.
A new autoplay, scrollable feed makes it easier to discover the latest sporting action, allowing fans to browse short-form videos covering breaking news, highlights, key moments and stories from their favourite teams, leagues and competitions.
Team Pages and Live Sports Rail
Team Pages brings everything fans need to follow their favourite team together in one place, including live matches, breaking news, highlights, replays and YouTube videos. Users can also set reminders for upcoming fixtures.
A new Live Sports Rail provides a quick snapshot of what's live, what's coming next and when events are due to start, making it faster and easier to find the action you want.
