Sky has revealed details on its latest its various subscription service delivery platforms and it includes some of the most useful upgrades subscribers have seen to date.Particularly welcome is the addition of Apple AirPlay support to Sky Glass TVs. Its long felt a bit incongruous that groundbreaking proprietary TVs capable of streaming in all the hundreds of channels that make up the full Sky subscription package havent been able to team up with Apple devices as effectively as most other premium TVs can these days. But the latest update to Entertainment OS, Skys home-grown user interface, can now stream videos, photos, music and more from your iPhones, iPads or Mac computers.Sky Glass has just received the latest in Sky's ongoing run of software upgrades. Photo: SkyAlso likely to be much appreciated by many subscribers to Skys services delivered on either its Sky Glass or Sky Stream (which uses a set stop streaming box to stream Skys channels into any TV) platforms will be the new improved Skip Ads feature. If you subscribe for this (it adds 5 a month to your service costs), you can now use a new dedicated button to skip through ads with just a single click.One of the most demanded features by users since Sky Glass and Sky Stream launched has been the facility to just go straight into the next episode of a TV series without having to trawl through the menus or use the Entertainment OS search features to find it. Sky has now finally answered this call by adding a new next episode on screen when an episode finishes. In fact, if you cant be bothered even to reach for the remote to select this new button, the latest firmware update will also automatically start playing the next episode after a countdown.Another new feature of the latest Sky Glass and Stream update is the ability to add actors to your playlist. Just hit the + button on the remote with a favourite actor highlight, and theyll appear in a People rail in your personalised playlist menu from where you can instantly access any films or shows starting them that are currently available on Skys service.MORE FOR YOUImproved Favorite Channel systemYou can now also add favorite channels to your Sky Glass or Sky Stream home screen, and allocate each its own number on your remote control. Or, in a very clever new touch, you can just tap refresh and your favourites will update with the channels that the Glass or Stream has noticed youve actually been watching the most.In a bid to try and add more character to Skys unique personalisation services, meanwhile, the latest Sky update introduces new character avatars individual members of your household can choose to attach to their personal profiles. New avatar options available include Jamie Redknapp from A League Of Their Own, and Nicolas Galitizine from Mary & George, offering more grown up options alongside previously available kids favourites such as Paw Patrol and Peppa Pig.The last component of Skys latest update brings good news for Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers, who can now stream music through the Amazon Music app on Sky Glass and Stream in HD audio quality. This offers twice the quality of the previously available standard definition streams.Related ReadingSky Introduces New Cut-Price Entry-Level Subscription PackageSky Glass TVs Now Available At Currys At Special Discount PriceSky Unveils New Features For Sky Glass And Sky Stream Including A Game Changer For Live Sports Fans
