Is the TV guide likey to be improved? I find it very frustrating only being able to see "now & next" when I want to see what's on later, also the lack of channel numbers! having to scroll through is sooooooo annoying! when youknow the channel number you want it's so much easier to have a remote with a numeric keypad to select the channel you want.
I'd hoped to be able to do away with my youview box so I wasn't having to keep switching from one box to another - oh well -some you win
I dont have one of these smart boxes (just the old black ones) but it amazes me that there is no proper EPG on them. Just another reason why i wont invest in one of these so called smart boxes.. they seem such an unfinished product and not really 'smart' at all. My TV in the living room has 7 day EPG and it has a built in record feature (just like a sky box). Thats two things i would expect a smart box to do.
I do hope the guide gets improved, may condiser buying one of these boxes for the other tvs/rooms in the house then.
Hi
If people want the 7 day epg considered you need to go to the ideas section and vote for it. There are only 3 votes so far including mine. The more votes the more likely the idea might be given greater preference. At the moment it seems only 3 people want to see it added. Need more voting support!
I just noticed they moved this to the ideas and have voted.
Please also make the channel list customisable either through a favourites list or the ability to reorder the main one.
Please make this the next trial NowTV!
Well done all! Please keep voting if you haven't already. The more votes the merrier.

I came to ask this queston, so have added my vote.
I just bought a now TV smart box, in the hope that I could use it as my sole solutuon for TV, but I cant live with the lack of a full TV guide (not just for Live TV but also for the Sky channels to some extent)
I am having to jump to the YouView box as the guide is so limited.
Also no channel numbers is a bit odd. I love the logos, but a channel ID would be handy.
Having no numbers on the (rubbish) remote means we can never jump to a channel, so could we have some categories, at the very least for the HD channels? Scrolling is a bit painful.
maybe a suggestion to jump to the HD version of a channel?
Also reminders to watch a program when it is starting?
Record to USB ? That would be nice....
I regularily refer to this Sky 'TV Listings' Guide which covers 7 days 😉
