NOW

Stream Sky hits and box sets with NOW anywhere

NOW brings the breadth of Sky programming and partner channels together in one place, making it easy to dive into box sets, premium series, sports, and kid-friendly picks. The app itself does not cost anything, which lowers the barrier to entry, but full access to shows and channels is tied to a paid service. A 14-day trial is available, so you can sample the catalog before committing.

What stands out is how convenient it feels to keep your viewing with you. Whether you are catching up at home on the sofa or squeezing in an episode during your commute, the app is built for watching on the go. Signing in to your account gives you the same service you get elsewhere, just packaged for handheld viewing. Navigation is straightforward, with an emphasis on getting you to content quickly rather than burying you in menus.

Content breadth is the main draw. If you want Sky originals, a rotation of box sets to binge, or something to keep the kids occupied, there is usually something worth pressing play on. Sports fans will find plenty to tune into as well, thanks to the service’s ties with Sky.

There are trade-offs. While access is flexible and the app is easy to grasp, playback can feel a little slow on some devices, which can take the edge off a binge session. And while trying the service is free for two weeks, viewing beyond the trial requires a paid subscription, so cost-conscious users should factor that in.

If you want a straightforward gateway to Sky-backed entertainment that travels with you, NOW is a solid option. It delivers a broad library in a clean, portable package, ideal for anyone who values variety and the freedom to watch wherever they are, provided you are comfortable with the subscription model after the trial period.
