ESPN Updates App Amid Increase in Streaming Traffic

TheVerge: ESPN has started consolidating its two largest apps into one piece of software, updating the iOS 9 and Android versions of its core ESPN app with the ability to watch live sports. Previously, subscribers could only watch clips and highlights through the app, and those who wanted to watch live games on their mobile devices would be redirected to WatchESPN — a separate install. The shift comes as its app traffic is growing.
