So here's my take on the MSNBC: Watch Live & Analysis app. I've tested a bunch of news apps and this one's pretty solid overall. The live TV and audio features work well, and I like the in-depth analysis from the MSNBC team. And it's not as slick as some other news apps, but it gets the job done. The only real downsides are the occasional bugs and the somewhat intrusive ads. But if you're a big MSNBC fan, this app is definitely worth downloading.

Description

Been using the MSNBC: Watch Live & Analysis app for a couple months now. It’s basically a news app that lets you stream MSNBC live, listen to audio, and catch up on full episodes of your favorite shows. Pretty solid if you’re into politics and current events.

The app’s got a ton of features – you can watch live TV coverage, listen to live audio 24/7, and check out on-demand clips and full episodes. There’s also some cool analysis stuff, with commentary from MSNBC’s award-winning journalists. Took me a little while to figure out where everything is, but the interface is decent overall.

Look, if you’re a news junkie and want to stay on top of the latest headlines, this app is worth checking out. It’s not perfect – the app can be a bit buggy sometimes and the ads can get annoying. But overall it does the job pretty well and I’d recommend giving it a try.

The worst in functionality. You can't pause it and restart, change your Bluetooth or change from Bluetooth to speaker etc without throwing the whole thing in a tizzy and basically...

DOES NOT WORK WITH CHROMECAST! Will only play audio with a black wcreen. So disappointing this is. It fixed yet. It really needs a cast icon/option. The app is fine...

I click on "Watch MSNBC live" and it doesn't work. I just get a message saying to check my internet connection, which is working perfectly fine with any other site...
