For anyone who has any type of Apple product and is an avid sports fan (like me), I have the perfect free app for you. Not just wanting to be a sports writer but also wanting to stay up to date with all the current topics in sports.
Usually I read Sports Illustrated, which online it is free and so is the app from the Apple store, but you still have to have a subscription in order to read the articles in the magazine. For me I didn’t think it was worth the money to pay for a subscription. So I went and found this new magazine called The Sporting News. It is slowly becoming my favorite magazine to read.
The main feature of the app that I really like is when you first download it you are able to customize the articles to your favorite teams. This easily sets you up with articles that you would enjoy and on the right hand side is they have a ticker that shows you what conversations are happening on twitter surrounding that team.
That aspect of the app I really like because I am an avid Twitter user. Also with it linking it up to Twitter I can get updates quick and easy.
Twitter is usually updates very fast and so while you could be reading a preview for the game you can be getting an affirmation of what you are reading. Also with the Twitter feed you are getting the information from insiders or beat reporters from that area or team.
The final feature that is nice is that it automatically downloads the newest edition of the magazine. So every day you are getting the newest edition and are reading the most current topics from your favorite teams.
