Kayo Sports

Has Kayo had a revamp?

I’m not sure about other devices but for a few days it has been updated to bring it more into line with Binge. This is what it’s like on Fire tv I’m not sure about other devices.

On web the in-stream UI is completely different. Can’t ss but everything is cleaner and in a different spot. Also has a closed-captions option (though this doesn’t work for the stuff I’ve watched so far, assume this is just there for the future or documentaries).

I haven’t checked the web version for a few days. I will have to check it.

ICC Cricket World Cup on Kayo includes the Hindi commentary option we’ve now become accustomed with. Hope they include Dutch/Afrikaans again too.

For the first time, Kayo will stream Nova 969’s annual Backyard Cricket match nationwide, as a mini-match. This year’s charity match will take place on October 4 at Sydney’s Kirribilli House.

Looks like Kayo is having a shocker tonight. It logged me out on Android TV, go to log back in and get the following error.

Casting from my phone is working though thankfully.

Happening on apple too! Twitter (x) has plenty of posts mentioning it now too!

It’s happened to me on my iPhone, but working ok for now via google home at the moment.

So remind me, this is why the AFL went with Fox again cause of their app was better than 10… :face_with_peeking_eye::eyes::thinking:

Kayo was trending because of the problem then Channel 7 was trending because Kayo viewers were complaining about 7’s coverage :smile:

Wish I could watch the Grand Final on Kayo where I watch my footy all year. I don’t like anything on 7, especially their footy with an ad after every goal. Spoils the continuity of the game. Has Fox got the GF in 2025?

No

No, that will remain the one game that’s exclusively live on 7.

Would be nice if in the new rights deal 7 would be allowed to at least provide an ad-free version of the game on 7+ for a one off subscription of say $5 or $10. They did something similar a few years ago when they had the tennis.

Sounds like a solution even if I’d begrudge giving money to 7. :rofl: The first 10 to 20 minutes of the Grand Final I found it difficult to concentrate on the game due to the ads. I’ve got a Kayo subscription through my Demons membership and I watch that all year.

Are you asking RUOK? I’m okay :slightly_smiling_face: Kayo would have been better. :crazy_face:

Kayo looks to have added Sky News Australia and CNN to the live channels list.

Sky News doesn’t surprise me being a propaganda arm but CNN is a pleasant surprise.

Odd that they’ve put Sky on Kayo but not Binge

Maybe just for the referendum weekend?
