Just a heads up it is already in the latest Android app.

The Discover function in the app is very different from the Discover function in first-gen boxes.
That was quite a lot more powerful.

Well the only interaction with the box is setting up a recording as far as I know nothing more.
You can't change channel or volume so its hardly surprising discovery can't either.

YouView, as a matter of policy, never pre-announce these things.

"pre-announce," now there's a concept.

If it’s good enough for the OED, it’s good enough for me....

Do pre-announcements need to be pre-booked?

Yes, and without pre-varication  

redchiz

Ah, you can announce, but can you varicate?

The discover function in the app never left. The box on the other hand is another matter.

By what logic? Or perhaps now that BT are ostensibly going their own way you ought to ask them? Maybe they don't want you to to Discover ....

Of course they are going to get it! Hence the inclusion in Discover's search engine for both free & subscription content and helpfully clearly labels content as such.
