I’m a Sky expert and there’s a remote trick that could prevent neighbour rows

TELLY fans who love watching a tense horror movie late at night could be spared from awkward arguments using a simple Sky trick.

Jumpy scenes with sudden loud sounds are great for you as the viewer but are less welcome for those who have already gone up to bed.

This could include your partner or worse still, a neighbour.

Fortunately, Sky actually has a clever remote hack that should help avoid the wrath of angry sleepers telling you to turn the volume down.

And it’s thanks to Night Mode.

It’ll drop the bass down and make things like shouting, screams, sirens and gunshots less dramatic to the ears.

The feature is available on Sky Glass, which has six pretty powerful built-in speakers.

To switch it on, press the three white dot button on your remote.

Go to Sound and select Night Mode.

Sky Glass actually has various Viewing Modes available to enhance your movie experience.

It’s set to Auto by default and will cleverly adjust itself depending on the type of content you’re watching.

But you can change it yourself if you prefer.

Just tap the three white-dot button again, go to Viewing Modes and select the one that suits you.

“The Auto-Enhance feature on Sky Glass was designed to create the best viewing experience for our customers,” Sky’s resident Hackspert Rebecca Waring, Head of Product said.

“Whether you’re a football-mad fan, or a cinema buff, Auto-Enhance lets Sky’s top-quality content do the talking.”
