What will happen to our boys and girls in Sochi? The 2014 Winter Olympics not only on radio and TV, but also on smartphone and tablet are followed. Here are the five apps that it is best. Two for both iOS and Android, and this time we are also discussing an app for Windows Phone.
TeamNL (iOS)
TeamNL is the official app of the NOC * NSF. A program, a collection Olympic medal and messages from the NIS and Nu.nl come into the picture. Fun is that you can write on a so-called fanwall something. You can have as your favorite athlete a heart stabbing under the belt.
On the left side of the screen of the iPhone can be conjured forth a menu, which can be for an overview of the program and the results selected the Dutch athletes, news, a list with photos of the Dutch athletes, a medal table and fanwall. If there are athletes who want to follow you, you can continuously store them in a list of favorites. When there is news or if they play a game Be it winning a medal, the app is so set that you will see this through a push notification. A little disadvantage to this is that the menu sponsors come into view as promiment at the bottom. It’s great that big companies athletes and NOC * NSF sponsors, but on the home screen they see before the app is started very well, and they surely should be enough. Been a long time The list of sponsors in the menu bar is not convenient because it takes up space, and it is highly questionable whether a user is waiting on it: if you accidentally click a logo you suddenly sits on the site of the Lotto and Rabobank, instead of the final steps of your favorite bobsledder. That could have done more convenient. But that is apparently the price of this free app, which is very comprehensive in tracking the operations of the Dutch athletes. It is also the only major drawback.Sochi 2014 WOW (Android)
This English-language app Samsung has been automatically set to the Netherlands. He does what most apps do, but without too many annoying commercials in the picture. The free app provides an overview of the program of the Games, information on all participating athletes and a medal. Which you can also view other countries. So if you want to know what happens to nineteen athletes of Andorra, which can.
The app also offers news, but that’s about all participating countries, not only in Netherlands. A kind of fanwall is also there. With every game you have the opportunity to watch your favorite contestant to be welcomed. Using the appNot everyone is equally at home in the Winter Olympics and can not bring all the sports at home. A nice explanation of the rules with pictures and everything is a sport to call.
But the main focus will still be on the operations of the 187 Dutch athletes who show up in Sochi. Unfortunately it is not possible to select athletes and turn so you will be automatically informed of all the news that they ’cause’. Informed in a favorite listThe app provides a list of pictures and vuideo that are put online. by the Russian organization All kinds of activities around the Games can be seen here. Most, it is a kind of tourist guide Sochi area.
NOS (iPhone)
This is not a real sports app, but still highly recommended. Because public broadcasting following the Winter Games on foot and all the news, including videos, to get. Within this app
For the NIS obviously does a lot of sports. So in this app. That well put together, especially fully and specifically focuses on the operations of the Dutch athletes.
A medal, fanwall and an overview of the program is lacking. For that you need to look again at TeamNL, who also provides sports coverage of the NOS. What this app obviously has is plenty of streaming video. Every missed interview, every missed match of Dutch athletes NOS has aired, is to be found. In this app For the real fans it is also recommended to install it. App on the iPhone The app is not stingy with data, so it can be viewed sports. For most with a limited data plan better with a wifi connectionAnd who was the sport as it is, so can this app simply take a look at the news. Or Nieuwsuur. Although this news programs, of course, will be the next time.
