It's tradition, or an old charter, or something, that no self-respecting geek would ever surrender their [TV zapper](http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/22/eugene-polley-obituary/) or their smartphone. Fortunately for [Sky](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/19/sky-go-extra/) customers, those two things are now one and the same. The company has tweaked its Sky+ Android app to offer the same remote control functions found on the [iOS version](http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/13/sky-plus-iphone-ipod-touch-remote-control/), letting users change channels, play, pause and rewind the picture. The update meanders out from today, and will work so long as your [Sky+HD](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/07/james-bond-channel-sky/) box is connected to the same WiFi network as your phone or tablet.
