PanARMENIAN.Net - Sky has rolled out an update for its Sky+ app for iOS and Android, allowing users to view photographs stored on their device on a TV screen.

The tablet or smartphone running the application must be connected to the same WiFi network as the user's Sky+ HD box for the feature to work.

Sending photos to a TV is a simple case of hitting the in-app camera icon to open your image gallery and selecting the pictures you want to send to the Sky box.

"The photo viewing function lets you simply, quickly and easily view photos on your TV via a connected Sky+HD box without the need for any extra devices," said Luke Bradley-Jones, Sky's director of TV products.

"With this update, the app will now mirror the new Sky+ Homepage, with great features like Smart Series Link and New & Recommended helping customers find the TV they really want to watch."

Earlier this week, Sky added new channels to its Sky Go service, including Channel 5 and ITVBe, taking its number of live stations to 70.
