Sky Plus app make iPad a remote control

BSkyB has updated its Sky Plus app and users can now use their Apple iPad devices as a remote control.

The UK pay TV service’s new app also allows people to manage the content stored on their Sky Plus boxes, deleting or adding recordings. Sky said the next update to the app, which will be introduced later this year, will integrate second screen functionality, allowing seamless interaction with social networks and access to extra content around Sky shows.
