First thing first. To have access to WatchESPN, you first must be a CentraCom Cable TV Basic Expanded customer. You will need to sign in when first using the app and your account creation will depend on you logging into CentraCom’s WatchTVEverywhere site. Once you set up your account the reward (the app) is pretty great.
WatchESPN is broken up into three main menus – Live Now, Upcoming, and Replay. We will detail each below.
The Live Now Section
The Live Now section shows the most popular currently sporting events currently being watched. The large image area (showing SportsCenter below) displays a sporting event which when clicked, will instantly start the live stream of the event. Along the bottom is a ‘Live Now’ scrollable area in which more events are listed. You may filter the list by choosing a specific sport or select a certain network pull-down menus above the list.
The Upcoming Section
The Upcoming section lists the events scheduled for today, by default. You may select a different date in to see what is scheduled in the future.
The Replay Section
The Replay section lists the events that are available for streaming on-demand. By default, the list shows events from the past 7 days. Again, you may use the pull-down menus to filter the list by sport or to change the date range.
Also, you may use the “search” field to search for a specific event in any of the sections.
Overall
Access to tons of Live Streaming events through an iPad app at no extra cost – yes please. Though some of the app reviews say otherwise, there is really no reason to dislike this app. Not only are the ESPN channels available live, way more content is also provided. For this and the professional layout of the app, it’s hard not to like WatchESPN.
