• true wireless! I saw on the BT community that they announced that it would only connect to the BT smarthubs, but I thought I'd give it a go connecting wirelessly to the virgin hub and hey presto, it worked! To be fair it's located right next to my router so I use a cable anyway as the wireless signal from the virgin hub is…

• It's disappointing that Youview didn't take off as much as Freeview Play has, as Youview was always seen as the natural successor to Freeview. I still miss the mobile app, as the BT one is not as good for Youview customers. It may be better for BTTV customers, but unfortunately as I have an exchange only phone line and…

• I use the pvr function of my device every week. I have lots of series links set up as like Rob P mentioned - the ads! I used to have a BT UHD Youview box (well still do, it's packed away) as I went and did the thing I said I wouldn't do and I got Sky Q! I wish I hadn't! I only got it as I subscribed to the BT Sport app for…

  in Ideal replacement for YouView Box Comment by DaveA 20 February 2021, 6:00PM
• Well this is really sad. I was a big fan of youview and used to recommend it to everyone as a free alternative to Sky. The app was impressive and I loved the ability to send remote recording. I guess it was only a matter of time for youview to go behind some kind of paywall (being BT owned). I'm also guessing BT will be…

• Hi Sarah, this looks great. Do you know if the BT UHD box will get this update at all?
