Perfect Combo: World Cup and Free Android Apps
Missing out on attending the matches at South Africa is one thing, but actually being left out of the news loop is another issue. When you know that you will not be able to have access to the telly or the computer during the World Cup matches, then your best bet to get live news is through your mobile phones.
Android smart phone users will be happy to know that there is a wide range of World Cup related apps available at the Android market. While not all apps are worth downloading, there are some that could prove to be very invaluable for any true football fan.
Our first recommendation is none other than the World DroidCup app. This is an instant results app that provides users with all the statistics, tables, match schedules, group tables and more. It looks great on the phone and the interface is easy to figure out. While it lacks all the extra details, it does give you the cold hard facts instantly –the perfect reference tool for busy fans.
If you can spare the time to actually read a short article about match highlights, then you will love the EvriThing World Cup app which provides you with a live news feed detailing all the match highlights and of course, big announcements. The lack of images means that the apps load and run faster than others –and that is a very important time and bandwidth saver.
Topping off our list of free Android apps is the BBC Sport News App. Most sports fans would already have this app installed on their handset, and if you have not had the chance to do so, do it. The BBC offers reliable, accurate and updated news about all the big matches happening at the World Cup as well as other major sports events.
