Sure, it's not as revolutionary as the new automated ad skipping built into its DVRs, but Dish Network has also just revamped its Remote Access iPad app. While other pay-TV providers are proud about streaming channels to mobile devices only within the home or shifting a few recordings, Dish's tight Sling integration still provides the most video wherever the user might be, as well as DVR management, a full guide and remote control. The 3.0.3 upgrade brings an entirely new user interface that's optimized for the retina display, guide data without interrupting the video, favorite channels list, and claims to speed up the process of both loading various screens and connecting to stream live TV.

This was the best update that Dish has done to the Remote Access app so far. The new user interface is clean enough to rival the Hoppers interface and the live streaming channels do load with less wait. I have been using this app for almost two years since I bought my sling adapter. I have been working nights at Dish for years, so this all came in handy because I am able to stay caught up on my stored programs or live channels if I choose. Lately though, it has become most useful during my 45 minutes for my bus at night. Instead of staring blankly into space for 45 minutes, I can enjoy my favorite shows on my iPhone and make that wait melt away.
