Using Airplay mode on the Sky Q with a iPad Pro#Sky #SkyQ #SkyTV #iPadSky Q, Sky. You can watch anything live or recorded on tablets from the bbc ch4 etc, however you can't watch anything from bbc iPlayer at all on the q app, you can watch recordings made from the bbc channels on your tablet, I don't actually know if you can sync those for offline viewing to your tablet though, and I'm not in the house at the moment to check. For optimal network performance we recommend connecting no more than four Sky Q Mini boxes. Watch on 2 Sky Q Minis simultaneously with a Sky Q 2TB box and on one Sky Q Mini with a Sky Q 1TB box. Ultra HD not available on Sky Q Mini boxes. In home: watch recordings included in your Sky Q channel pack and most free to air channels.
