Android: Enable "Stream over Wi-Fi only" in your settings.
iOS: Disable "Stream over Cellular".

Social interactions in videos

Share, fire, and comment on content right from the video to engage with other viewers.

Missed the beginning of a live stream?

Use the live video player's DVR feature to rewind and watch up to 10 minutes of the missed content.

Closed Captions

Closed captioning is dependent on the stream we receive for each event. If subtitles are available, you can look to the bottom right corner of your video player and click on the "CC" button to toggle off and on.
