ESPN App windows 10

ESPN: the best sports news app for Windows 10 users? Sport is a great way to keep fit, but it also consists of one of the world’s biggest entertainment mediums.

Most of you are big sports fans, with favorite teams or players, and because you are so devoted, you want to see the latest news from sports and about your favorite teams.

One of the biggest authorities in the world of sports news is ESPN. This service extends through almost all types of sports and provides coverage for every event, big or small, in the world of sports.

Also, ESPN offers users of Windows 8, Windows 10, or RT the possibility to install the official ESPN app on their devices and be on top of all the news in the sports world.

ESPN for Windows 10, and RT – A great app

Windows 10 and RT users who would like to install the ESPN app must know that they can do so for free, and with only a few taps, they will be able to have one of the most outstanding news apps of all. To put this into perspective, ESPN is for sports like the Financial Times is for investors.

The app’s design is gorgeous, with stunning graphics and a layout that constantly makes you think it is on the move. Also, on the main screen, you can access information on different sports, stories, magazines, videos, and photos.

Of course, you can select only one sport if it interests you the most and see the latest headlines from that area.

By clicking on one particular sport, you can see the national leaderboard and other information, apart from the different stories and videos on the page. Also, here you can access information on a particular team. This information includes team members, recent scores, the next games, etc.

Another very interesting feature of the app is the ability to browse through all the different sports that are available by right-clicking on any part of the screen.

This will bring the options menu up, which I’m pleased to say, is one of the best designed so far, offering lots of options and information like team information or ESPN radio.

If you log in to your ESPN account, you will be able to set your favorite teams, players, or sports, and you will receive customized information about your favorites.

Also, you will be able to see live scores in the options menu and the main part of the screen. These features are all awesome and make this app one of the possible sources of information you could ever wish for.

Every true sports fan should use this app to get the latest and greatest information on their favorite teams. After extensive testing, I can’t find anything wrong with the app, except that the ESPN services are not worldwide but limited to the US.

We hope that the ESPN system will be able to relay information from different countries, and then the app will be even better.
