NFL Now app launches on iPhone & iPad, coming soon to Apple TV with personalized video stream & more

The NFL Now app we revealed a few days ago has launched on iPhone and iPad, offering fans a personalized video stream of their favorite teams.

NFL Now delivers a personalized video stream of your favorite NFL teams, players and coaches right to your iPad or iPhone. Get exclusive interviews and stories about your team, breaking news on your fantasy players, and unlimited access to your favorites in the NFL Films Archives.

This official NFL product combines all of the intense football you love with a smart, easy-to-use interface. NFL Now for the iPhone and iPad learns what you like and delivers a non-stop stream of customized NFL content gathered just for you …

NFL Enterprises promises “hundreds of new videos daily” together with the “deepest NFL video library anywhere.”

The app is free, as is much of the content, but you need to pay $1.99 a month as a recurring in-app purchase to access the premium content offered in NFL Now Plus:

  • Unlimited access to expansive library of NFL Films shows

  • Premium game highlights experience that includes hundreds of real-time in-game highlights

Those outside the USA, Mexico and the UK also get live streams of the NFL Network and NFL RedZone on Sunday afternoon.

The app will be coming to the Apple TV in the coming days.

The app not only allows you to choose your favorite teams and players, but also learns from what you watch and skip to offer the content it believes will most interest you. It offers seamless handover between devices, so you can begin watching a clip on Apple TV and then continue watching on your iPad.

    I love to watch NFL video library on my devices. $1.99 for monthly subscription is a killer price for the awesome service.

    I subscription service for highlights. Wow, what a deal! There is such a shortage of NFL highlight shows.

  7. Ali Mnm - 10 years ago

    Wondered whether anybody watches this sport outside of the US!!!!

  8. Ali Mnm - 10 years ago

    I have a Chanel showing this sport 24 hours a week even when there is no live match. Such a waste of time and money.
    Soccer, tennis, basketball, water sports , skiing , volleyball, gymnastics and athletics are good. The rest are wild and waste of time and money.

  9. Winski - 10 years ago

    Sorry… App is a complete FAIL.

    the ability to watch NFL on Mobile device is certainly my thing even the subscription charges are pretty sweet.
